Everything about the character of Pennywise, from Bill Skarsgård's performance to the makeup to the jump scares, seems to try way too hard. Everything to do with the chemistry between the Losers Club in the first one works, but I wouldn't say it does in the second. But the second one is so overly stuffed with crap that I would say that's not the biggest problem.
Overall, 5/10 for the pair.
