God, this movie pissed us off. Usually, this is a film appreciation podcast, and even here, we give It Chapter Two a lot of credit. But very few movies have fired us up as much as this one did in a negative review. In other words, we freak the hell out.

It Chapter Two is our 6th Movie Event review of the year. We’ve also covered Ready Or Not, Good Boys, Spider-Man: Far From Home, Midsommar, and Annabelle Comes Homes, and this is the third review doing our new mock award show format, which is really just a fun way to frame our superlatives and hot takes that tends to spark conversation.

Don’t worry if you haven’t seen the movie yet. We open with a non-spoiler section first, before we dive into the plot, and you’ll have a spoiler warning to signal that off for you. As for a psychological difference between segments, the non-spoiler section is relatively analytical, if not deliberately a bit vague, and that spoiler section is where the yelling begins.

Normally, we don’t get this hyped up for a movie review and can keep our cool better than this. But we told you when we started, we’re gonna be honest with you. Was it our high expectations? Were the comparisons to the better first film unavoidable? Did this movie just suck? Or are we just a couple of snobs spoiled by all the Oscar movies we have to review? We consider all of this as well.

If you’re left wanting more from an evil clown movie or if you just can’t get enough of them, then definitely check out The Joker Character Study, our new re-watch series for the fall where we review all of the major Jokers in cinematic history. On next week’s installment, we’ll be dissecting the many iterations of Mark Hamill’s voice acting performance of the Clown Prince of Crime. So don’t miss that.
