Ale F @RT21213957 15h A real disappointment. The talented "older" cast deserves far better than this. Giving space to actors beyond the usual age range is great in principle, but here they are wasted on dreadful dialogue, lazy jokes, a predictable plot, childish situations, and logic gaps everywhere. Worst of all, the characters are constantly infantilised. Making them act like teenagers does not make them "cool"; it makes them look foolish and completely unrelatable. Instead of celebrating actors (or characters) of this age, the show ends up undermining them. This is not some geriatric Stranger Things — it is just a low-quality attempt to trade on the names of the same producers. See more Mikio M @MikioMurakami 1d This one surprised me. I went in knowing almost nothing and ended up watching the whole thing really fast. Cool mystery, fun cast and it keeps adding little questions that made me want to keep going. It doesnt answer everything but thats ok, now I just want season 2.

Stranger things grown up, I really wish we’ll get more seasons. Netflix dropped the ball when not renewing See more Mark B @RT22564052 2d The Boroughs started off well and stayed watchable for about three quarters of the episodes. Then at somewhere about episode 7 things started to go downhill. It started to have many of the same, stale sci fi tropes that I've been watching for the last 50 years. Schmaltzy and overly sentimental. It became so predictable that I could figure out how it was going to end, kind of like a boss battle in a bad video game.

I really appreciated the hole history of the show and the video effects. If you are a fan of science, sci-fi or strangers things you will really enjoy this one!! Hurry up the monster is next to you, you just need to find who really is the monster.

But too many story holes, too many obvious character and script choices, too much ignoring of its rules. I was dissapointed. A B movie with a bigger budget. See more Read all reviews
