Stranger Things: Season 1
Hey Guys,
so i watched season 1 of ‘Stranger Things’ and i expected something great. I heart a lot about the serie like ‘best serie ever’, ‘the best in a long time’ and so on. Everyone how watched the serie was so excited about it and i don’t understand it. I don’t want to say that i don’t like the serie, i did in a way… and i will definitily watch season 2 when it will come. So let’s talk a little more about the serie. I try to tell not many spoilers. So you just get an insight in the serie.
Every good story…
What happends in the serie? We have a group of kids – four boys, who are outsider in school and became friends – one day one of the boy vanished. Also in an military facility goes something wrong. You need not to be a genius to know that everything is conacted. When the boy vanished a girl appears. Basically everyone tries to find the boy and the military tries to hush up everything. So everything very typically. In a way we have four main groups. Before i tell more about the groups i want to talk about the atmosphere. The whole serie is a little colorless. It is not blackwhite are something but it is a little grey everywhere. Also the serie is working with flashbacks. They are not many but still enough to be significant for the serie.
Group One: The kids
The three boys want of course search for their friend and found the little girl. They hide her and got involved deeper than they should. Like i said in the beginning the boys are outsider and the girl is a little special and not very talkative.The boys have to explain alot to her like what friends mean and things like that. What brings us a few really cute scenes between the kids. A lot of the scenes between them is about their friendship and how they deal with what happend to them. One thing that is like ever other serie just two kids seems to have parents. The parents of the other two were never seen and doesn’t seem very interessted in them and worried that them sneak out in the night or skip school…
The little girl is played by an amazing actress. Millie Bobby Brown does an amazing job. My mother doesn’t really like the serie but she is thinking that she did an awesome job.
Group Two: The Siblings
Two of the boys have older siblings. The one that hide the girl at home has a big sister, which best friend vanished too, and the boy that vanished had an older brother. Both are trying to find them their own way and at some point the decided to help each other out. They are the most ‘aggressive’ group. They are like ‘we want that shit be done’.
Group Three: Mother and the sheriff
They don’t go and make shit done. We have the mother of the boy that vanished, who tried to find him. She is a little crazy and unstable and truth be told she got on my nerves… she is a really bad mother, who tried really hard to be a good one. But the scenes with her really make want to scream. The Sheriff seems at first like the normal drunken sheriff ready with the shitty world but the moment he understand that the boy is really vanished and not just with his dad. He is working to find him really hard. He is actually a really good cop and sees the little things.
Winona Ryder (the mother of the missing boy) is making me want to scream (so totally also an amazing actoress at work), but i really enjoy David Harbour scenes who played the Sheriff. He is a person i just have to like and it doesn’t change the whole season. The feeling just grows more and more.
But the best person was totally Benny! You will totally understand me! Benny is just an amazing good person and i wish in our world would be so much more Benny Hammonds.
Watch it or not?
It is a dark serie with so much cute scenes and dealing with feelings, memories and of course a mystery. It doesn’t happen much surprising or really exciting things, but you just want to know what will happen to the kids – most of all the girl. But all the boys are really sweet and in away you just have to watch it until the end. So watch it or not?
If you like serie that are really good from story and character but don’t are really surprising and new than watch the serie. It is good. I will totally watch season two.
