Review on Stranger Things Season 5

Stranger Things Season 5

After about 3 years since Stranger Things season 4 came out they return in 2025 for the final season(Season 5). After 10 years of Stranger Thing it has come to an end. The Duffer Brothers have put so much into Stranger Things. They decided to have season 5 come out in three parts, Volume 1, Volume 2, and the final Episode.

Volume 1: 

Volume 1 has four full episodes. It was interesting to see how older they look and how different things are. It was also nice to see how the relationship has progressed. Henry wanted to take kids because of their weak mind and that he tried to trick Holly into thinking he was the one saving her. The reveal of Max being stuck in Henry’s memories and having been making a living in caves that he refuses to enter. I also liked that Max and Holly started to kind of work together to escape. The final episode of Volume 1 had an amazing ending. When they reveal the Eleven’s sister was behind the door being held captive. Also when it was revealed that Will can use Vecna’s powers against him and killed 3 Demogorgan’s at once.

Volume 2 & Final 

Volume 2 has three full episodes. These episodes get into more depth of them figuring out more about the Upside Down and why Henry wants to take children. It also talks more about Will and how he is actually a sorcerer. They also figure out that the Upside Down is a dimensional bridge and that they are Earth to a darker realm called the Abyss. The final episode is where they all have one last battle in the Abyss and save all the kids and kill Vecna. They destroy the Mind Flayer and Eleven stays in the Upside Down while it is collapsing to sacrifice herself. Then at the end it shows them graduating and everyone else figuring out their features.

Review:

Overall I think that this season was good to an extent but I don’t think it felt the same. I think that all the other seasons were a lot better. Although Stranger Things is over after 10 years.
