Get your therapist on Koreaspeed dial, because IT Chapter Two is nearly here to retraumatise you with everything from a scary clown to how harrowing growing up is -- and the first reactions are in as critics and fans stream out of the first screenings.
The overall mood is: IT Chapter One, but more. If you found yourself picking holes in the first movie, you'll probably be frustrated again; if you loved the personal stakes and the characters, there's that in spades here, with performances from the adult Losers to rival any "serious" drama; and the ending might make you cry.
And if it made you lose sleep, you can look forward to more of that too.
