Featured reviews
There's also just a lot of feeling like ok we have to tie up this, finish that, bring this together. Its almost too neat. I was hoping for a sloppy mess of a finale. With characters dieing that make you wonder what the hell is going to happen in season 5? With things happening that you wouldn't be able to guess.
This finale episode is unfortunately both predictable and also somewhat unsatisfying, but still has a lot of that stranger things magic that makes it fun to watch.
But I felt there were too many balls in the air this time. It almost works, and the writer's nearly get the emotional crescendo they were looking for - but the editing seems to deflate the tension. There are weird chronological issues, where the audience (and the unfolding drama) is put on pause for extended periods. The dips to black sometimes ruin the beat of highly dramatic moments. In general the editors needed to be much more liberal with the razor in my opinion. This show generally doesn't talk down to it's audience. We didn't need to be cued to care for the fate of the characters in this finale, or to recognise epic moments as such.
Finally. Why oh why didn't you just give Dustin some crutches?
