The new horror movie opened with good reviews and as a result, It Chapter 2 opened to a phenomenal box office collection in the US.

Directed by Andy Muschietti and written by Gary Dauberman, It Chapter 2 was the second movie of the two-part adaptation of the 1987 Stephen King novel. The new horror movie features Jessica Chastain, James McAvoy and show-stealer Bill Hader. Bill Skarsgård returned as the scary clown. 

Pinkvilla gave the movie 3.5 stars and wrote, "It's not just another jump-scares fest (which are aplenty); it's so much more! It's not just a stereotypical horror-genre film! Its subtext includes psychological thriller, comedy, drama and romance. You're so invested in The Losers Club, at the very beginning that when you reach the end, it's like a sweet surrender."
