Critics Consensus

Darker and denser than its predecessors, Stranger Things' fourth chapter sets the stage for the show's final season in typically bingeworthy fashion.

Scott Bryan

When you watch these episodes from this new series, it doesn't really offer anything deeper, such as a deep dive into the characters or their relationships. There's just more plot.

Rated: Not a Must Watch

Now that most of them have been reunited with a common goal, it’s promising to believe that the fifth and final season will split the difference between the streamlined third and bloated fourth chapters to find the perfect middle ground.

How refreshing it is, then, to find that the just-concluded fourth season returns to the brilliant heights of its first.

My biggest question that I have is: “How are The Duffer Brothers going to top this?” It’s going to be difficult, for sure, but I trust them to finish out this story the right way.

Rated: 4.5/5

In the build-up to the final season, the Duffer Brothers ensure that the coming-of-age themes still resonate during several memorable — and surprisingly emotional — scenes where characters have to usurp their personal demons and rise to the occasion.

I was salty when I saw the runtimes for episodes this season but have to admit this is their best season since the first one. I'm excited again and hope we give Lucas and Erica more to do as we address this time jump next season.

Rated: 4/5

Jeez louise, if you can handle teenagers' bones being snapped and their eyes exploding then this is a pure horror season with an excellent cliffhanger. Really excited for season 5.

The last season as to date right now with the introduction of vecna who seems to be the upside down’s most dangerous and threatening entity of them all, vecna is most likely to appear in the final season as it wasn’t clear he died, this season was probably my favourite just because of vecna’s design and what he does to kill his victims, it’s very creative and I enjoyed it very much, ANOTHER 10/10 SEASON JUST 1 MORE TO GO WOOOOO.
