Here’s a round up of just a few.
Thrilled I can now say that IT is spectacular. Totally terrifying, but also amazing fun (the Losers are PERFECT). Top 10 candidate for me. pic.twitter.com/XjQHyNmSEq

#ItMovie was spooktacular. Great cast, surprisingly funny, and genuinely unnerving scares. You’ll still be freaked out when you get home. ? pic.twitter.com/n5EQpbk53N

#IT definitely captures frights of the novel whilst adding a new fears. Major set pieces are bone-chilling -even summons a splash of tears

IT makes me nostalgic for when I used to get scared by things because I don’t anymore. But man oh man, if you still do…

I love the #ITMovie. It’s everything I wanted. Scary as shit, Skarsgard nails Pennywise, and the Losers are perfection.

#ITMovie is everything I hoped for & more. Has heart, laughs & TONS of incredible scares. Fell in love w/ The Losers. Didn’t want it to end.

#ITMovie: a carnival funhouse of a film; loud, scary, funny. And best of all: it has heart. #It

Bill Skarsgard is putting in a performance that is going to turn him into the Freddy Krueger of a new generation. #ITMovie @ITMovieOfficial

I can finally talk about #ITMovie. New adaptation is more fun, frightening and familiar than you think.

#ITmovie social embargo is up, so I will say… I liked it! Kids are great. BSkars is great. Also, surprisingly, it’s pretty dang funny.
