The gang bang, the diary, the town at the end were some other parts that weren't well done.

That being said I loved the "coming of age" tale of the losers club. Those kids were a cool group. I also would have enjoyed more perspective from Pennywise as well. Now I gotta re-watch It in prep for the redo.

EDIT- looks like Im not alone in the long winded descriptions :)
His long winded descriptions are part of his writing, it happens in most everything he writes. I like it. I love getting to see exactly what King wants us to see in his head.
