Critics Consensus

It: Chapter Two proves bigger doesn't always mean scarier for horror sequels, but a fine cast and faithful approach to the source material keep this follow-up afloat.

Not as good as Chapter 1, the cast didn't seem as close as the kids were. Mostly didn't like Jessica Chastain. But the scares were good and I liked that the ending was different from the Tim Curry version.

I enjoyed the first one more, but this was great too. Casting for the adult versions of The Loser's Club is spot on.

Trimming the adults' often soppy individual narratives to focus on their more interesting dynamic as a group might have mitigated some of the numbness that sets in from predictability.

There's a grandness to its scale and production values that still makes It Chapter Two an enjoyable romp, but it's not the ghoulish scarefest it could be.

Rated: 3/5

Not unlike the town in which it's set, Muschietti's It only sees what it wants to.

San Francisco Examiner

"It Chapter Two" is less scary; like early "Evil Dead" films and other 1980s horrors, its crazy creatures inspire surprised laughter more than terror.

Rated: 3/4

Puesta en Escena (AR)

Despite the problems of the ending, and being less successful than its predecessor, It: Chapter Two has several stimulating moments through its terror. Likewise, it must be emphasized that it maintains the essence of the literary text.

Rated: 6.5/10

It Chapter Two fails to deliver a conclusion worthy of its epic runtime. Even with a phenomenal cast, it isn’t as funny, as scary, or even as captivating as its predecessor.
