no to be honest in my opinion i don't believe it was really a good movie, for one thing it did a very poor job in explaining what IT was. however they thoroughly explained IT's history in the aspect of the towns history. but for its own history not so much. i also think that the movie was rushed in some aspects. I'm not saying it was a bad movie but t call it the best hour movie of the year wouldn't be far. but you must also take into consideration that no recent horror movie was or in my opinion could be considered great or really good.
