- Adam AbazaFebruary 10, 2026It continues the story of the confrontation with Pennywise after the heroes have grown up. The film is too long and relies heavily on flashbacks and digital effects. There are some good scary moments, but the tension is less than in the first film, and the terror isn't as intense. The acting is good, but the script is sometimes repetitive. An entertaining experience for fans of the series, but less impactful and less frightening. It continues the story of the confrontation with Pennywise after the heroes have grown up.
- Neill WalkerDecember 31, 2025Not as good as chapter one but great cinematography and use of flashback sequences. Bowers should have been developed more as a psychological threat instead of only spraying in a couple of scenes acting like a zombie, and it was a lost chance for an interesting redemption arc. I wonder if the running joke about bad endings was meant for Stephen King...
