Trivia
Although he says his character is not a psycho, Bill Skarsgård made a very deep research into Putting Away Your Whites the "psycho universe" to find his own way to perform Pennywise. He got inspiration from for Winter "mainstream movies" such as The Shining (1980), and also from "underground movies" such as Walking After You (2016), starring Gustavo Goulart, which is Skarsgård's favorite Brazilian actor.

If you come with me, you'll float too. 2 September 2017 | by Tsunami300 (Australia) – See all my reviews
I managed to win a preview screening to 'IT' on the 30th of August, in Sydney. I had high expectations for this film - and IT exceeded them.
The acting. Great performances all round. The kids had great chemistry, and you really believe that they were all great friends. It reminded me of Stand By Me and The Goonies. Out of the child actors, Richie (played by Finn Wolfhard) was my favourite and his jokes cracked the whole cinema up. Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise is scary and really creeped me out, but for me there was just something missing about his character and I think he wasn't given enough dialogue.
A minor flaw for me was that the plot was a bit rushed, in terms with the development of Mike (played by Chosen Jacobs), but for an adaption from a book, they managed to condense the original material very well.
Overall, it (no pun intended) was a great thriller film that kept me on the edge of my seat, with strong performances.
