It wasn't that bad. IT is my favorite novel, not just from Stephen King, but all time and despite the fact that the movie didnt live up to the book at all i still enjoyed it in a way. I think for me i knew that they weren't going to get it right before i watched it so my expectations were low plus it was still fun in a bad sort of way. Also Tim Curry was great as Pennywise.
This is a movie i would love to see remade, i think they should do it in two parts. One part the kids, one the adults. Although that may just get repetitive. I'd also like to see it be darker.
