IT: Welcome to Derry (2025)

**The show is written for pre-teens and it feels like a silly WB series 🤢** I'm really disappointed with this latest TV show from HBO. The acting is absolutely atrocious, and the writing isn't much better. And I never notice stuff like CGI, but some of the "monster" special effects in this look sloppy or something, like they were thrown together on an internet cafe computer. We literally laughed out loud at some of these "scary" scenes. Anyway I thought it was going to be a somewhat serious horror series, but instead it's just a bunch of writers throwing goofy stuff at the wall to see what sticks. It's definitely intended for young adults/teenagers, which feels more like WB and less like HBO, and personally I was hoping for a show that is somewhat more cerebral. We deserve far better from HBO, usually in shows like Succession we get great acting from phenomenal actors. Definitely not the case in this sloppy show. Seriously who cast these people? PS I guess all the 13 year olds jumped on this website to give this a 10 lol. I recently read an article about this and they called it **Review Bombing** which often happens for with movies from India as well as pre-teen TV shows. **1/10**
