I totally agree with your review and I think the chemistry between the children is the most enjoyable part of the story. Fantastic review as always, Sophie :) <br /><br />Ashley xx<br />http://www.imamovienerd.wordpress.comAshley Christiehttps://imamovienerd.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1633103281532247659.post-65853286363523536802017-09-17T19:32:28.778+01:002017-09-17T19:32:28.778+01:00Yeah I actually think the TV series is more sinist...Yeah I actually think the TV series is more sinister as it doesn't have the CGI but this has charm in other ways for sure. Luckily, it's so formulactic that its really obvious when he's going to show up so I personally didn't jump/find it scary at all but worth a watch if you feel you can handle it :) xxSophie Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06849135026944731332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1633103281532247659.post-88471421121149943932017-09-17T19:31:21.646+01:002017-09-17T19:31:21.646+01:00Aw thank you so much!

He is indeed, he's his brother :) Don't worry, I promise you it's not scary. Much more of a coming of age with some horror thrown in (a bit like Stranger Things).

But it freaked me out for life and I don't think I will be going to give this a watch either. Horror and jump scares are not for me, my imagination definitely takes it too far at a later time.<br /><br />Lauren :) xLaurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12960479648119097373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1633103281532247659.post-56247059117311984702017-09-14T18:21:04.438+01:002017-09-14T18:21:04.438+01:00A fantastic write up as always, Sophie.

I was instantly drawn in by the trailer as I adore Stranger Things, Stand By Me & The Goonies and the nostalgia coming of age and of course 80s feel (80s rule!) Corey Feldman was one of my childhood heroes, so the fact that there is a similar character means I'm sure to relate. On the down side, I am literally the jumpiest person ever and though I enjoyed the original, it scared the hell out of me! I hate clowns and balloons ππ€‘ I was eager to read your write up. Bill Skarsgard - relation to Alexander? If so, I'd probably fancy him if it wasn't for the clown makeup π<br />Jaz xoxo<br />http://www.thelifeofasocialbutterfly.co.ukAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13275622000905681937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1633103281532247659.post-44703034591531664562017-09-12T18:01:57.800+01:002017-09-12T18:01:57.800+01:00Haha it's really not scary at all.

The humor in the film was good. I've never seen the 1990 adaptation despite being a big fan of Tim Curry. I haven't read the book either. So I guess I'll catch up with the 1990 version while I'm waiting for the sequel (where everyone is grown up).Gilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311639261006039432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1633103281532247659.post-37159301771285996792017-09-10T23:06:36.926+01:002017-09-10T23:06:36.926+01:00I saw this yesterday and enjoyed it much more than...I saw this yesterday and enjoyed it much more than I expected to! I definitely think it could have been scarier but it was definitely creepy and very jumpy at times. The kids acting made the film for me, I found them all really funny and think they worked together so well. Loved the little jokes from them! <br /><br />Tiffany x www.foodandotherloves.co.ukTiffany Timmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329740334886521293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1633103281532247659.post-62843361072086497882017-09-10T20:30:14.372+01:002017-09-10T20:30:14.372+01:00OMG it launches next Saturday here in SA and I'...OMG it launches next Saturday here in SA and I'm really looking forward to it!<br /><br />Candice | <a href="http://www.beautycandyloves.co.za" rel="nofollow">Beauty Candy Loves</a>Natalya Amourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05300330916206965507noreply@blogger.com
