I have to look at this film as a completely separate film than the original with the brilliant Tim Curry, because it is a different film and a different time.
1st of all, Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise is amazing! What stood out the most was the way he made that his character, and didn't try and redo a Tim Curry Pennywise. Everything from his eyes, to his towering height and child like presence made me an instant fan!
I enjoyed the losers club, although not as much as I did in the original mini series and I'm not sure why. A couple of the characters were unable to convince me of their characters where as in the original, all of the loosers were in fact loosers.
My only problem that I would have with this film would have been certain scenes with CGI that didn't look that great.
Overall, awesome remake of a classic horror story!

This movie was not bad at all. Obviously, don't watch it if your expecting to see an Oscar worthy film but if you are a fan of horror and cool ways to see people die, then give it a go!
The director did a great job in taking this movie back to the original in the way of comedy. You won't get scared watching this film but you have a laugh or two. The return of Ozzy was really cool and they did a great job trying in the original film.
I think what I enjoyed the most about this movie was the Leprechaun. Trying to fill the shoes of someone like Warwick Davis is pretty darn impossible but Pondo did an excellent job! He was hilarious and brutal just like the leprechaun should be.
