It (2017) Movie Review & Reaction

I had some reservations when they first announced a remake of the 1990 version of IT that starred the incredible Tim Curry. No, it’s not because I hold the original in such high esteem that I think it’s blasphemy to remake the film. It appears remakes are becoming a bit of a trend with the top film studios lately and I don’t see the fun in redoing what’s already been seen. What I would prefer to see is a completely new story made up, but still using some of the same characters. This would feel more original and still keep audiences coming to watch it in the cinema if they know the cinematic favourites like Pennywise the clown are involved.
