Reflecting on Stranger Things…
Let me explain what it felt like watching “Stranger Things”: like I had crawled into a time machine and I could smell it, I could feel it, I could see it and my heart broke into a multitude of pieces.

On the whole, I can recommend “Ted”. There are a ton of good laughs and if you’re a “Family Guy” fan, the faithful were out at the screening I went to and it was a huge crowd-pleaser.
Nicolas Winding Refn’s “Drive” feels like a throwback to the 1980s. But don’t expect Romy and Michelle to pop up, rather a mood and tone is created here that longs for “Manhunter”’s Will Graham to make an appearance, as Refn piles on gobs of visual style that would make Michael Mann proud.
Some of it makes sense and some of it not so much. But is any of that the point? No, not really.
