    Five years on from Birdy's last studio album 'Beautiful Lies' (2016), it may sound like a long break...

I wasn’t the biggest fan of the first part, it had its moments but way overdone the cgi and just wasn’t scary.I was curious to see the second part but was put off by the 3 hour running time , but being stuck at home during a pandemic it seemed like a good excuse to catch up on long films like this.

Unfortunately I was as underwhelmed as part one, the casting for the grown up losers was pretty good and it has a powerful opening scene but the narrative was very incoherent, consisting mainly of random jump scenes and descending once again into a mess of cgi monsters. The origins of Pennywise was all very poorly done. My God did it drag in the middle as well , I found myself checking my phone on several occasions (never a sign I am enjoying a movie) and was relieved when it was over. It was at least half an hour too long and really didn’t need to be.
