In the case of horror motion pictures, Netflix giveth and Netflix taketh away. The service at all times has a robust, rotating roster of horror motion pictures, however Stephen King’s 2017 trendy traditional, IT, will not be accessible on Netflix after March thirty first.
What’s IT all about?
IT is ready within the late Nineteen Eighties within the fictional, pinprick of a city referred to as Derry, Maine. Derry will not be a great place to develop up in. The bullies are vicious, however even worse, Derry is house to a mysterious entity that preys upon the city’s kids each 27 years.
The cycle has began once more. As children disappear in disturbing numbers, a bunch of younger misfits band collectively for his or her collective survival. If these children wish to see maturity, then the self-proclaimed “Losers Membership” should confront Derry’s evil entity which regularly takes the type of Pennywise the Dancing Clown.
Is IT value watching?
IT actually is among the finest motion pictures primarily based on the work of Stephen King, however don’t simply take my opinion. It sits at #7 on Rotten Tomatoes’ rating of 65 motion pictures primarily based on Stephen King’s work. It has an 85% contemporary score from critics (which, amazingly, beats 1980’s The Shining). Even armchair critics such as you and me landed on an identical 84% Popcornmeter approval score. Nice minds suppose alike!
IT is a good movie for these of us who admire a enjoyable, however not too terrifying, horror film. It has some good leap scares and nice stress, however isn’t going to go away you wakeful staring on the ceiling at evening, like, say, The Ring (2002).
