Stranger Things 2 (tv)

• Oh hai, Encino Man’s Sean Astin.
• Starts off slow (because it now has to expand and spin multiple story arcs), but wraps up quite nicely.
• The kid who plays Will is a pretty damn good actor. We didn’t see enough of him in season 1 cuz…well……………….he was missing. Duh.
• New characters are introduced, while some of the smaller ones from season 1 get more screen time.
• Higher episode count (but not by much)
• Definitely has an ALIENS vibe throughout.
• Also, if you’ve forgotten that Winona Ryder can act, you’ll be reminded here.
• Final Letter Grade: A
• Jose Zuazua is editor-in-chief of Quick Lunch Break Reviews. He has an associates degree in film production. He’s on Twitter and Instagram.
