Some praise the performances, especially Bill Hader, and the film's ambition. [1][2][3] Criticisms include excessive length, weak scares, and a problematic opening scene. [4][5][6]

How does a movie with no story become 3 hours long? Seriously, it's a real question. Nothing seems to happen... ever... and they virtue signal by changing a character, because you have to now... but nothing really happens for most of the movie. And the horror felt a bit like a kids movie. But ultimately it's 3 hours with no real plot.

‘It Chapter 2’ isn’t as stable or as refined a film as its predecessor, and while it feels lacking by comparison, it’s still far better than most studio horror films. It’s epic, ambitious, crazy, witty and unafraid to go for the heart as well as the throat. As a whole, this adaptation of maybe Stephen King’s greatest work feels singular in the landscape of modern horror cinema: two films built on strong …

Chapter 2 was more awesome then the first. I even got a little freaked out myself on some parts. This has easily become one of my favorite horror films of all time.

Wasn't a huge fan of the first but did like the young cast but the scares were non-existent. This sequel had a couple okay moments and I did like the characters as adults, but Bill Hader easily was the standout. Still wasn't very scary yet even with the lengthy running time never felt like it dragged. One day I may try watching the two back to back, but between the two, not overly impressive. 3.5/5

Sooooo why did “IT Chapter Two” have to start with a hate crime? Like that sets the entire tone for the movie and I hate it. I can’t move past the opening. Like it’s unresolved too I don’t think it’s addressed again. Why would they make that choice? I hate this movie because of this.
How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 126 public posts we collected about this film and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post). A second AI pass checked every statement against the posts it cites; anything it could not match was removed, and code removed any statement with quotation marks, numbers that are not in the posts, or unattributed claims about people. The split is counted from the posts’ own ratings. Generated Oct 10, 2026. Method
Critics, per Wikipedia
It Chapter Two grossed $211.6 million in the United States and Canada, and $261.5 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $473.1 million. Deadline Hollywood calculated the net profit of the film to be $169 million, when factoring together all expenses and revenues. In the United States and Canada, the film was projected to gross $90–100 million from 4,570 theaters in its opening weekend, and the week of its release broke Fandango's record for most advance tickets sold by a horror film. The film made $37.4 million in its first day, including $10.5 million from Thursday night previews, the second-highest total for both a September opening and horror film, behind the first…

neutral · AI labelView post →In terms of these “part 2 of 2” movies, it’s a lot closer in quality to ‘Dune Part Two’ than ‘It Chapter Two’. Concurrently, that #WickedForGood might, in any way, come off as “the movie we need right now” is very much an indictment of our stupid, stupid world (right now).

neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched IT: Chapter Two for the first time. It was overlong, but what really threw me off was the lazy-racist way they threw in Indigenous religions and ceremonies. A character even steals an artifact from the fictional tribe. This movie was made in 2019?? We have a long way to go, man.

neutral · AI labelView post →This afternoon's treadmill TV took me through the first half of It: Chapter Two, a movie about repressed memories which surprisingly brought back a somewhat repressed memory of my own — how I'd once tried to get Stephen King to write an essay about why his SF novels kept getting marketed as horror.

I just recently rewatched him in The Black Phone and It: Chapter Two, where I really enjoyed his Eddie Kasprak, probably the only character I could fully buy as the grown-up version of their child equivalent in the first film.

negative · AI labelView post →Truth - It: Chapter Two is a worse movie than It: Chapter One Also Truth - It's still mostly an improvement on the source material (certain changes to Mike Hanlon notwithstanding)
negative · AI labelView post →also watched IT & IT Chapter Two, and have seen the second film noted as an LGBTQ film. the film opens with a gay couple you've never seen before and will never see again brutally attacked by teenage homophobes who kill one of them
negative · AI labelView post →Movie: It Chapter Two When Richie (Bill Hader) starts crying at the end of the movie, I just lost it. 🥺 Is this better than the first movie? No, it never was going to be. But does that make it a bad movie? Absolutely not. This movie is so much fun! #filmsky #horrorsky
positive · AI labelView post →Yeah I seriously thought we moved on from this after the discourse around Halloween Kills and IT Chapter Two, but nope, same as it ever was. It sucks!! Especially in a movie that's otherwise good, unlike Halloween Kills or IT Chapter Two

neutral · AI labelView post →While I think IT: Chapter Two is generally a weak movie, it does impart the valuable lesson that the appropriate way to deal with an evil, dangerous clown is not to run or despair but to bully it relentlessly into oblivion.
negative · AI labelView post →also, just regarding the terrible film It: Chapter Two in general, you do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to em"
negative · AI labelView post →One thing's for sure: I'm not watching IT Chapter Two unless I get *really* desperate. God, the fact that even Pennywise couldn't save the film from being an annoying slog...
negative · AI labelView post →Forgot It Chapter Two is almost three hours long. Still, not as bad as I remembered, even if some of the adult performances don't hit. May have to take a short break to do my own ghastly adulthood-related things, but my #nationalhorror marathon will continue shortly. #horror #horrorsky #filmsky

neutral · AI labelView post →I accidently deleted my post yesterday so I'll quote post this instead: In IT: Chapter Two, there's a Mortal Kombat arcade cabinet in a movie lobby. The problem is that that scene took place in the 80's and Mortal Kombat was released in 1992.

positive · AI labelView post →I first became aware of James Ransone thanks to IT: Chapter Two. My first thought after the movie was if he could pull off a British accent, he’d make a great Arthur Dent, as he possessed a perfect Resting Worried Face. May he rest in peace.

negative · AI labelView post →Crazy! "28 Years Later trailer is the second most-watched horror movie trailer ever #1 is still 'It: Chapter Two' Both were cut by trailer editor Bill Neil 🎥"
neutral · AI labelView post →Today in strange comfort choices: I'm finally watching It, Chapter Two. I don't remember now why I skipped it in the theater because I liked the first movie a lot. Probably scheduling. It's really great to find an adaptation that uses what's important, and uh, eliminates some of that weird shit.

Everything with Georgie is so sad. ;_; That second movie was good enough that I was able to keep up with the story without having seen the first one (and while stupid with grief). It’s good, I liked it.

positive · AI labelView post →These four are all way too damn long. Why is the longest Harry Potter the entry where so little happens? Why is a PIRATE movie almost three hours long? Fuck The Revenant. It: Chapter Two felt longer than the miniseries. Throw in the Transformers series as well.
negative · AI labelView post →I just made myself laugh unreasonably hard at the thought of a Bill-free cut of It Chapter Two. Just completely removing any and all evidence that J*mes McAv*y was ever part of the film. It'd be an improvement, even with the resulting inconsistencies...
