Stranger Things

There is no reason, in terms of story, for Stranger Things to take place in the '80s. But the '80s atmosphere - the dial phones, the chain smoking, Winona Ryder - are there to clue you in on the inspiration for this movie, which is pretty much every supernatural movie from the 80s with a focus on kids. E.T., Poltergeist, that sort of thing.

The wondrous thing is how dead-on this tribute. It's not just the clothes and hair, but the style of acting, the scripting approach, the structure, all hold true to their inspiration. You've got the young nerdy kids, the horny, unsure teenagers, the monster, the mysterious one with the power, the bad science/government people, the conflicted investigator, the tearful mom.

You could argue that this entire season is simply a pastiche made up of recycled elements, and I wouldn't disagree, but it really feels less like a copy and more like something of that era, as though the writers had fallen into a coma in 1985, woke up and got to working.

While it doesn't have the high style of the Spielberg films that are a primary influence, it does have the likability. The story is consistently engaging and fun, the acting is excellent, and the movie has sufficient laughs and tears to satisfy.

Stranger Things is absolutely as good as everyone says it is. When a show is as talked about about as much as this one has been it's hard to live up to expectations. Stranger Things has not only met those expectations but has surpassed them in every way. This is the show that our Netflix on the map as far as original shows go as this was not only one of their first but their biggest. As much as I love this show it's probably time for it for end and it is. This upcoming season is going to be the last. We have literally watched this cast grow up, they were children when this show first started and now they're all in their 20's. I can't wait for this last season and going to miss it when it's gone!

I am one of those people that was put of by the thought that this was a kid's drama, from the advertising you'd swear this was aimed at a 4 o'clock after school transmission time, the reality is far from that. It's quite intense drama, thoroughly absorbing, the kind of show you can't help but binge watch. As someone that grew up in the Eighties, I can appreciate the detail that's gone into the production, it's like they slipped back and filmed it live, it is incredibly well made. I utterly love the music, it is so fitting, takes me back to wonderful eighties shows. Quality in both season one and two, I like the build up and tension that is abundant in the first. It's like the Goonies meets The Quatermass Experiment.

"Stranger things" is definitely one of the best TV series in its genre!

High-quality cast, a lot of nostalgic and not only references, atmospheric and beautifully furnished locations, and of course an interesting idea that we were able to implement in all respects. The characters change and can give a new impression of themselves in each season.

In the first season, they will only spin the intrigue and introduce the extermination characters. However, this is the most atmospheric and best season for me!

In the second season, there will already be more scale and thriller, which is logical. And it still looks great. The story does not stand still - and this is the main thing for the series The third season is the brightest and most glamorous among all four. There is a special atmosphere in it, different from the original one. And, perhaps, this is my least favorite season, but nevertheless it cannot be denied that it is addictive and interesting. Some people may like the innovations, while others may not. There's nothing can do about it And the last season 4, the darkest of all, which can be called the beginning of the finale. The season itself is a direct reference to the horrors of the 80s-90s. The most important events for the plot will take place. And in general, the season could have been the best in the show - however, it was prevented by a lot of unnecessary scenes that could have been dispensed with.

The final fifth season has not yet been released, but according to known information, we can expect it before 2025. Well, we hope that he will not disappoint, but only please.

Stranger Things absolutely lives up to all the hype! This worldwide phenomenon has been one of the most talked about shows since it came out back in 2016 and for good reason...it's terrific! It's an absolute blast to watch and will keep you entertained throughout the entire series. This has everything a show needs to be great...action, comedy, drama, suspense, even nostalgia with this show. You really come to care for these characters and what happens to them. Obviously, season 1 was the best but the others are not far off. All are absolutely worth watching and I can't wait for the new season! Season 5 of s going to be its last so hopefully it goes out as good as it started. I can't wait!
