Overall a decent show. I loved the first two seasons and season three was alright, but I feel like season four dropped off a little. The plot was a little more messy and there was too much going on.

The plot was a little more messy and there was too much going on. However, my chief complaint about this show is that it is not at all epilepsy-friendly. There are an egregious amount of flashing lights that made portions of the show literally unwatchable. Expand

Seasons 1 and 2 are great and make clever use of reference and homage, while maintaining their own identity. By the time Season 3 rolls around, there's plot recycling and homage is traded for straight up imitation. Season 4 seems to be moreSeasons 1 and 2 are great and make clever use of reference and homage, while maintaining their own identity. By the time Season 3 rolls around, there's plot recycling and homage is traded for straight up imitation. Season 4 seems to be more of the same there, in addition to some more ***pull plot elements. There's no way in my mind Season 5 could salvage this show after it jumped the shark hard in Season 3, so I give it 2/5 overall. I don't know if the fame went to the directors' heads or Netflix simply wanted M0AR, whatever the cost, but it went downhill far earlier than I anticipated. Expand

The second season starts to show cracks and then has some big missteps. For me the worst part was this episode was the build up that went nowhere!!!! The build up in episode 8/9 was increasing my heart beat. I was on the edge of my seat for that like 20 or 30 sec. EXPECTED about 50 slimey/flower creatures to fly through the house causing an amazing fight...
Biggest let down in an action scene ever....they could have used sound effects.....nooope....they could have shown L fighting more outside...they could have shot a HUGE action scene and closed the show in a classic way (they use so many fake tropes anyway) and ... L walks through the door...and her entrance wasn't even that great. Compared to other build up movie scenes it wasn't impressive...even when she entered the dance at the end it wasn't impressed...but why get our hopes up and build our hearts up for...no fighting to happen and for one creature to fly through the window? Never been so ghosted in a TV show...

Yes episode 7 sucked, I agree with most reviewers..fore the 80s punk scene here looked very, very poorly recreated UNLIKE the general 80s vibe and culture in the rest of the show...this should have felt more punk rock, instead it felt like a 2000's punk scene. The cinematography was very off. My GF said if they pulled out a cell phone it would have seemed normal..but I really hated the episode placement of this mostly because it was placed right before the finale episodes! Pulling me right out of the action...I was finally getting over some bad parts of the show and bam...now I have to get back into it on episode 8...now 8 had less affect. Very, annoying, sad, disappointing...THEN I GET EVEN MORE DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE THE BUILD UP FOR ACTION WAS WORTHLESS AND IM NOT EVEN AN ACTION MOVIE KIND OD GUY.

Also I'm all for killing off characters but Bob gave the show some much needed lightness that the first season has, because the children felt so innocent, but the second season lacked. Killing off Bob was not helpful the show needs lightness.

Lastly the script has always felt a bit off...too copy and paste..too paralelle...I already have to get over that and how the show is a mash-up of Spielberg's best...but then I have to deal with all this previously mentioned crap. Oh and the UPSIDE DOWN SUCKED IN SE02. THE UPSIDE USED TO BE SOOO VAST, instead it looks like only tunnels now.

I could not part with any of them, but the most recent season I felt unsatisfied. There can be such a thing as too much character development or focus. The show has been slowly widening the scope, leaving Hawkins and introducing International players. Yet I feel that the show is too scared to depart from our group of kids and venture into the world it has created. The military, governments, nations are involved, its a avengers level threat yet I feel that the world doesn't care. Here we are at the end of the world potentially but everyone is smiling and going about their day. I hope that we get to see a big face off between the government/world against the invading dimension. I hope the scope of the show widens past our small group of kids from Hawkins. Expand

Но на это приходится:
Скучный не раскрытый злодей,
Абсолютно беспонтовый монстр с которым справится младенец.
Незапоминающиеся дизайны и некоторые персонажи.
И глупый сценарий в котором при детальном анализе можно найти массу сюжетных дыр.
Общий вердикт таков:не советую тратить время на просмотр "ЭТОГО". Есть масса других произведений с похожей историей, которые показывают себя достойнее.

StrangerThings_Aug 20, 2022
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A Série é maravilhosa. Você sempre ama as cenas ou os seus enredos.
Todos os personagens são preciosos e maravilhosos, e eles nunca são desnecessários, e quando são (desnecessários), sempre aparecem para piadas, humor e comédias (Dou como exemplo o Ted Wheeler). Os Irmãos Duffer e o Shawn Levy nunca erraram e nunca errarão na escolha dos atores, eles combinam com os protagonistas demais!
Todo mundo que assiste sabe do potencial do seriado e de tudo que tem lá.
Os cenários, Os personagens, os atores, os diretores e o roteirista.
Stranger Things é maravilhoso!!
Quando o Alexei, o Benny ou a Barb morrem, você sente um peso mesmo sem ser um dos protagonistas, esse é um dos pontos fortes da série, mas ninguém pode dizer que é 100% perfeito. Os Duffer Brothers nunca matam algum dos protagonistas! O Will tinha MUITA de chance de morrer no Upside Down, e a Max, tinha mais chance ainda. Mas isso de matar os principais afetaria no núcleo principal da série (Mike, Will, Lucas, Dustin e Eleven) a Max mudou a vida de todos! Mas os roteiristas e os Diretores tem preguiça de fazer cada vez mais mudanças nos protagonistas do seriado. Mas os irmãos Duffer e o Shawn Levy nunca pensam no dinheiro, e sim no seu público.
A série sabe onde começar e onde acabar. A série não tem barriga nenhuma.
O ponto forte de Stranger Things são as referências, Os Goonies, O Exterminador do Futuro, O Caso do Damien Echols que inspirou o Eddie, O Projeto MKULTRA que inspirou o laboratório, Star Wars, A Hora Do Pesadelo, Poltergeist, E.T O Extrarerrestre, Alien e Tubarão.
Realmente não entendo porque acham o elenco ruim, por mim, ele é o melhor seriado do mundo inteiro.
As teorias dos fãs são completamente memoráveis se você já assistiu.
Mesmo que você já tenha assistido e for reassistir, você vai chorar, vai rir, vai socar a parede e tudo!
Sem duvida nenhuma, essa pode virar a melhor série da Netflix. Uma boa série para a semana ou para o fim de semana. Resumo:
A nota dessa série é 1000.

This show is so well coordinated together. I watched it in under 2 weeks, and considering the fact I’m never able to commit to a show, like I’ve said, this was completely ironic. If you’re looking for a review to change your opinion on whether you should watch it or not because maybe you feel it’s too overrated, make this review the game changer. Great job, Duffer Brothers!

The audience must stay focused and enjoy the tv show the whole time. Quality, characters, story, and entertainment are the best parts of this tv show, which are very important for the audiences and the fans. To start with, the quality of the tv show is top-rated, which means the scenes, clothes, and location is perfectly designed, and it doesn't change over time. For a Tv show, it is essential to stay committed to the first season, which means if it starts excellent, the audience expects it to keep up the same and not change. Stranger things start with exceptional quality and stay the same over time. Characters are always essential in all movies, TV shows, and stranger things have the best characters you can ever imagine. It takes only one episode to fall in love with these beautiful characters and relate to them until the end. At first, you might see them as "kids," but as soon as you see the first episode, you will know this is not a kid's show and is far more interesting than that. The love these kids give to their characters is far greater than their "roles," and this is something it makes this tv show very unique. From seasons one to four, you will see many changes in the characters and environment, but this change is not bad. The characters develop more and grow up, which is very important for what comes next. The writer will add many new characters to the show, which is always reasonable and necessary for the main characters to develop more and get more power using their team. The storyline is far from unique. It stays interesting every minute and makes you wonder what will happen next. The storyline is about two different worlds and how they met. The characters are doing a great job, and they grow up with the storyline, which makes the tv show and the storyline more believable. The storyline keeps getting stronger and more powerful after each episode, and at some point, you feel like you can't stop watching and Entertainment is one of the most outstanding qualities of this amazing tv show. Once you start watching this tv show, there is no going back, and you will not regret it. The tv show will keep you wondering while answering all of your questions about the environment, characters, and even storyline. Netflix has done a great job creating this unique and memorable tv show. One of the good things about this tv show for me was the 1980s environment and how good and comfortable the cast created every moment with tiny details and love. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It is a good show.

the best part of this show is the character's relationships and backstories. It isn't perfect all the time but is enjoyable. The bad part is the villain that is just a generic monster that wants to take the world without reason. Personally, I like more complex villains and plots.

Also, this show has many non-sense Hollywood cliche scenes with kids managing to escape or defeating monsters or URSS Soldiers. I personally don't like this element, it kills the likelihood of the show.

Edit in the 4th season finale: The villain responsible for all the supernatural tragedies in the previous season was revealed. That improved the enjoyment of the show. The 4th season finale (2h episode) was above average, it was a very tense episode with many swings in the fights and some tragedies in the end. I would give 8/10 to this finale, although the remainder of season 7th is still 7/10

This is a review for season 4. I hated season 2. It's clear that the show wasn't meant to continue past season 1 in this way. It was meant for an anthology. I skipped season 3 and watched season 4. I had fun for what it was but I can't helpThis is a review for season 4. I hated season 2. It's clear that the show wasn't meant to continue past season 1 in this way. It was meant for an anthology. I skipped season 3 and watched season 4. I had fun for what it was but I can't help but feel like the standards for good writing have plummetted. Another show came out in 2006 which bore a lot of similarities. Pitching a seasonal anthology format deconstructing a pulp genre with a fantastic, self contained first season. As soon as season 2 hit, everyone turned on it. The writing quality clearly dipped and season 4 did regain some ground but it was too little too late. If that show came out now, people would probably be way more forgiving of it and they absolutely should not be. That show was called Heroes. Stranger Things went down the same trajectory and yet people are letting it slide. Is it nostalgia? Have viewers become so plaquated that they ring the pavlovian bell, for the sake of recognizing something they like? It's all icing and no cake. The amount of contrivances, contorted character actions, poorly set up plot points, dropped subplots, hamfisted themes, terrible moments of dialogue, jarring tonal shifts, deflated payoffs, and retreaded narrative/character beats is honestly embarassing. I would be ashamed if I wrote this. But for some reason people are loving it. This show is poisoning pop culture with this 80s incest. I really enjoyed it on an ironic schlock level, but I feel like the odd one out. Eleven has the exact **** SAME character arc as in season 1. How is this acceptable???  If you are an asipiring writer, just keep in mind that no matter how much your professors jump down your throat for the simplest mistakes, or moments of growth and learning while you write, people were paid to write this show and it got approved. Each episode has a 30 million dollar budget. That is why I am being so hard on this. I expect better for this amount of budget. Just spit in my mouth at this point. It's more honest. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. season 4 part 1 review: this season is for sure is way better than season 3. its also the scariest season in my opinion. so many amazing plot twists as well. I only had two problems with this season, first one being: not killing max. even tho I really like max, it really seemed like she is going to die, not letting her die shows weak writing. strong writers are often not afraid to kill core characters off. and my second problem is the "multiple story line" concept. it worked well on previous seasons but now we have characters that are totally not even in the picture of what's going on, in the ENTIRE first part of season 4 some characters don't interact . we also barely see will and mike, the MAIN characters of this show which is just sad. I hope the second part of season 4 and season 5 do better. but overall this season was pretty good Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Season 1 review:
Season 1 of stranger things is nearly perfect. The entire plot, story, and best of all the mystery behind Hawkins is super amazing. Great visuals and the characters in this show are really good. Characters like Steve, Dustin, Nancy, and Jonathan Byers are flat out great characters and actors. My only negatives for this season is that they probably could’ve gone a little more scarier and making more scary for the viewers. They had so much more potential especially with the monster as the villain and the evil upside down world they introduced. Other than that, this season is perfect and I love the ending where they get will back and eleven fights the monster to save wills friends. I also love the little cliff hanger we get at the very end of the show where will goes inside the bathroom and coughs up the little slime thing from the upside down and he even also has a moment where he thinks he’s back in the upside down. Overall, this is a must watch and is worth every single second of your time

Due to being so intrigued by its concept andHaving heard nearly nothing but good, actually great, things about 'Stranger Things', despite it attracting some criticism (like a lot of popular shows do these days, interest was high watching it. Due to being so intrigued by its concept and various ideas and tones.

'Stranger Things' on the most part is deserving of the love it has, for me its lack of originality was not a problem because it executes so much of everything else so wonderfully. It is not perfect and not an even in quality show, but when it was good, as shown in a quite excellent first season, boy was it more than great. Along with 'The Crown' and 'House of Cards' in its prime, 'Stranger Things' is one of the best Netflix has done and in well above their general standard.

Do agree absolutely that Season 2 is not near as good as Season 1. There are still a lot of elements present in Season 2 that was especially good about the first season and part of the show's appeal, but somehow the writing didn't always feel as tight, focused or rounded and some of it was a bit forced and obvious.

Also felt some of the effects weren't as refined either. While the acting is great from almost all the cast, Winona Ryder's melodramatic over-acting did feel at odds with everything else.

Everything else is executed so well. A vast majority of the time, apart from the lack of refinement of some of the effect in the second season, the production values are just great. Very stylish and atmospheric, with some truly beautiful images that one can't believe such high quality comes from a Netflix show. The music is haunting and nostalgic.

Writing is thought probing and has a lot of brains and heart, with some nice gentle humour that doesn't overpower, some truly poignant drama and tension. The story is rich in atmosphere and even though the story ideas are not original and have been understandably described as derivative, it's the execution and telling of these ideas that makes one look past that. The suspenseful mystery elements, the inventive and intriguing sci-fi elements and dark and disturbing horror elements are beautifully balanced and handled adeptly on their own. With an emotional core and nostalgic homages added as well.

Characters are compelling and it's the chemistry and interaction and how the relationships are written that makes 'Stranger Things' work so well. Excepting Ryder, the acting is terrific. The standouts being Finn Wolfhard and particularly Millie Bobby Brown (such an expressive actress in a beyond-her-years subtle way), if they continue to act this way and be wise with their career choices they are very likely to have big careers.

Overall, very good show and at its best excellent. Do wish that Season 2 was as good as the first though. 8/10 Bethany Cox

Watched over the last few weeks and I can't believe that I slept through it and where does the good children's drama come from all of a sudden? Even something like ES was really good in this respect.

Inspiring, grandiose and incredibly exciting from start to finish. Stranger Things as a mix of thriller, mystery and drama delivers on an incredibly good level and has catapulted itself directly to the most popular series with my girlfriend and me.

Hopper is the pillar and superbly characterized and acted. Otherwise, the development of all other characters or newly added figures is absolutely coherent and meaningfully woven into the series. Harrington e.g. is going through a really strong development. Likewise, the story, which is often told on different levels, is so well connected that each merging of the individual strands never seems superimposed, but fits completely organically into the narrative and everything follows a common thread.
It then jumps again and again between the individual stories, but they are absolutely exciting on their own and then lead to a really satisfying result.

We are absolutely thrilled and can't wait for Season 4. I actually never had the feeling that I was watching a bad episode, only one or the other scene was a bit lengthy. By the way, the effects are exceptionally well done and it definitely has its spooky moments.

Absolutely recommendable (if someone still lives behind the moon).

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Stranger things is what you get if the classic TV show Twilight Zone is crossed with the Disney movie Enchanted. The story for this series is set in the '80s when the Landline was the cutting edge of communications technology. But it manages to serve up the nostalgia of that time with the fast-paced storytelling style of today. Read on to find out if this weird sounding series is your cup of tea. Stranger Things Plot Summary Stranger Things starts off with a suspense-filled scene where a group of people who look like scientists is being hunted in an underground facility. The scene is edge of the seat stuff. A lone person in a lab coat is trying to close elevator doors with lights flickering in a long dark hallway.  This cuts to kids playing Dungeons and Dragons in a basement. One of these kids
(Will Byers) goes missing in the town of Hawkins in the US where they live. The connection between these scenes is that an interdimensional gateway is discovered that lets monsters out and leads people into it.  The plot is centred around how this interdimensional gateway is closed, stopping an invasion of sorts. On the way to saving the world, government conspiracies and human experimentation are uncovered. There is telekinesis, telepathy, people falling in love and more. Unique Things Stranger Things has great visuals and good depth to its characters. It has great casting with Winona Ryder playing the missing boy's mother and energetic young preteens who are fresh new faces. It has a background score that is calm and reminds one of life in the suburbs. The title theme, of course, is thrilling and what made me start watching in the first place. The title Stranger Things is a callback to the era of Neon lights- the iridescent red glowy letters ( u can almost imagine the buzzing ). It has a good blend of CGI and actual stunts. The characters actually grow significantly as individuals,  as the plot moves forward. This is rarely seen in most series.  Similar Things Stranger things has drawn inspiration from shows like "The Outer Limits" and the "The Twilight Zone". It pays tribute to them through subtle similarity in plot and music. It also reminds one of the Stephen King novel-turned-movie "The Mist". It sees people trapped in a supermarket and surrounded by a thick fog while monsters pour in out of the fog. This also has an interdimensional gateway. There is also a light X-Files vibe if it was slightly older.  Of course, there is a clear reference to the Steven Spielberg movie E.T where the alien is carried in a bike basket. A central character named Elle ( short for Eleven ) flips a truck while sitting on a kiddie bike in the front. All Things Put Together This series has something for everyone. There are good character arcs, there are action and suspense. There's young love and sacrifice. This is a soulful endeavor that will leave you wanting more. Give it a go
