I watched this to see what the fuss was about and I'm really disappointed. If you're used to watching discerning, quality shows all over the streaming networks then you'll find this terribly weak. The script is really old fashioned and naively weak apart from a handful of experienced actors, the acting is awful, centring on really irritating child over-actors. It's like watching a serialised version of the Goonies without the Cyndi Lauper save. No disrespect intended to the Goonies. It's weak I'm afraid. But hey, the Duffer Bros found a niche and it worked, so well done. They actually do a good job at direction. One star for that. An extra star for the fabulous acting of child actor. Millie Bobby Brown.
