Stranger Things Finale Review: Off-Putting, Overstuffed… and Still Emotional
Published 1 week, 4 days ago
Description
The Upside Down closes for good — and it gets weird on the way out.
On this episode of Thumb War, Jason and Rachel review Stranger Things Episodes 5–8, aka the series finale. We dig into what works, what absolutely doesn’t, and why a finale that’s often frustrating still manages to land emotionally.
From baffling monster choices and zero-stakes action to genuinely touching character farewells, this is a deep dive into an ending that’s messy, modern, nostalgic, and oddly effective.
Spoilers throughout.
