From that specific scene with Georgie at the beginning you are immediately aware that this is nothing like the TV movies.p, in terms of violence and overall tone. The cast is great for the most part, however Richies character unfortunately wears thin after a while with all the sex jokes he makes which gets tedious after a couple of them. But that's not important. What is important is that Bill Skarsgard does a fantastic job of playing Pennywise, despite not being humorous which doesn't detriment his portrayal (personally I still have love for Tim Curry more). Overall one of my favorite films of thos year.
9/10

That scene with Georgie shocked a lot of people in the audience and at that moment I knew it would be nothing like the TV show.
