From what they said this is one of those movies.

The movie isn't very scary -- they could have pushed it a lot more than they did. After all the talk of how gruesome the opening scene was supposed to be it was kind of a let down.
Another thing the wife (who knew nothing about the source material) got lost on was just why Pennywise was there/doing this. They could have spent a bit of time going into his character back story if only as a set-up for the sequel where I'm sure it will be revealed, but I guess fans of the book who already know where he fits into the King Universe won't mind.
