Was enjoyable, but when the dust and hype settles it will be seen as the 6.5/10 it is.

>>87581753

Not kino but better than expected.

Mike isn't an important character until the second half when he becomes the vigil and calls everyone back. Stan fucking kills himself, so no reason to get attached to his character.

It's far superior to both the original miniseries and any installment in the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises. Seriously, each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though

"No!" The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Everything except the made-for-trailer horror scares is kino.

>>87581753
Unironically Yes, it will save horror

Unironically yes, most influential horror film since jaws.

the bit where that girl has no legs
spooked me so hard because it seems like the clown was just showing them a flashback to her actual death and all I could think about for a bit is how painful, lonely and terrifying that would be
