    Girl bosses, gay filler episodes, Joel isn't a man, and Ellie is obnoxious. Occasionally there are some fungus monsters. Play the game instead because the TV show is a joke.

In the game you felt something when Sarah was killed in the show she was just annoying. They changed the show so much away from the game this might as well be another Walking Dead episode. Everything moved to slow and in the end of the episode I was bored out of my mind. On the positive side the world around did feel like a world that is in pain. That did came over from the game a bit. But the characters we should care about in this one was just not there. How can you mess up the casting so badly.… Expand

    "...it was fine." - was how my wife felt about this HBO show after episode 9 drew to a close. And it was. it was also fashionably woke and a tad slow, with budget restraints that elevated it just slightly higher than your average fan fiction. The game was much better, sorry but it was. 3 stars for the 3 clickers that appeared in the entire show.

    I might update later.
    but after episode 3, I cannot approve of this story telling. I mean; A whole filler episode?!? are you serious? even putting all the filler material aside, Joel said they the raiders will be stealth, smart and strong... nek minut... raiders running into traps are electric wire... really?

    This still pales massively in comparison to the game in every way so far. Mostly the scenes are nowhere near as impactful as their source counterpart.

    The game came at a time somewhat just before the whole zombie thing wasn't absolutely done to death, and it was mainly the stellar performances, the bond the characters had, and the editing that made the game and set it apart. Today, it has to be at least equal or better or it's just another beyond-tired zombie show. Hopefully, it'll win me over in the coming weeks and I'll alter this review/rating.

    Episode 3:
    As agenda-pushing at it felt, I wouldn't have been okay with it if they were straight either. It was a perfectly fine "filler" type episode..but damn, they're telling the entire 1st game's story in just 9 episodes and they're "wasting" it with stuff like this?

    There are only 6 episodes left... But gaining brownie points is higher on the list than telling the game's main story I suppose.    … Expand

    A Beautiful Disappointment.
    Not as good as the game... the acting, the pacing, the interactions, the lack of infected and marauders or bandits, unnecessary side stories, deviations from the main story-line. Feels rushed.
    The best parts of the TV show are 1-for-1 recreations of the game & the gorgeous scenery of a dead world.

    Why does the entertainment industry feel the need to inject virtue signaling into otherwise excellent storylines? I suppose because they know they have a captive audience to indoctrinate.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a gay guy, I appreciated the fact that they were highlighting a relationship that was present in the game, but the way it was done came off as a poorly-wrought soap opera something that Lucille Bluth could have written while on a bender, rather than something realistic to actual gay relationships or at all coming close to the characters portrayed in the game.

    Pedro Pascal is the only shining light in this series that gives it any kind of dramatic power and prestige. I would have liked two episodes with the gay couple and make it about them being with Ellie and Pedro while cracking jokes, engaging in witty humor, and killing zombies. Instead, we got this soap opera straight of of Days of Our Lives or The Bachelor with people ponderously gazing out windows and crying buckets of tears every few scenes. It was nice that they started out with the badass gun collection, handyman skillset, and manly way to subvert the typical gay stereotypes, but then the piano scenes and everyone crying 24/7 and giggling over strawberries rubbed me the wrong way. Rather than a tale of badasses, it went out with a whimper and a tear. Even staying true to the anger with the original game end to the couple would have been tougher and more manly and more gay in my opinion. But what do I know, I'm just a gay guy that was unimpressed with the direction. They ruined my man Ron Swanson like this and did this couple that was far more humorous and witty dirty by bad directing.    … Expand

An entire episode is a flashback whose only purpose is to explain how they got the car they're driving. Who cares. An entire episode is dedicated to worldbuilding a town's 'civil war' and Joel's forced to take sides. Very next episode literally everyone dies and there are no lasting consequences. Pointless. I haven't even watched the whole thing but I'm sure if you just watched the first and last episodes you would understand everything because nothing in between serves any purpose.

I tried to like it but it falls so short I just couldn't. I rolled my eyes when the fungus was blamed on climate change. The writing and casting are the weakest links, followed by the directing. The opening of the original game is stunning and has a dramatic impact on the viewer. In the TV show on the other hand, it is completely watered down and diluted so it loses most of that impact. The main players are badly miscast and neither look nor act the part. Also they mumble their lines regularly which is a failure of the director. Pacing is slow, too much talking but not saying anything. Sarah is unlikeable and spends her time scowling, hostile and angry, nothing like the pleasant daughter of Joel in the game. The original game's voice actors for Joel and Ellie are light years ahead of their counterparts in the TV show. And then to the worst part, the complete miscasting of the most important character, Ellie. The casting director should look for a new career.… Expand

It’s not loyal to the original content, plus it’s poorly written in some situations like: “the fungi can’t survive in temperatures above 35°C” ~ “The ‘global warming’ will make the fungi to adapt and evolve.” Such dialogue doesn’t make sense. Plus this series is full of w0ke things. It doesn’t deserve our attention.

    Casting should have been done better. Also, the woke message of changing Sarah destroys a major event in the story. This could have been brilliant if HBO just stayed true to the game and the story.

    Loved the first Last of Us game. I watched the first 2 episodes of the show and thought ok a bit boring but decent enough. Then came episodes 3. One hour and 20 mins of complete filler. I had to fast forward most of it as it was so boring. What a let down.

    Enough already. This adds insult to injury with more and more race swapping and idiotic political ideology, female supremacy and a story that is becoming weaker and weaker after a promising start, drowning in pointless gender identity. We must purge the woke from society before it's too late: like the infecting cordyceps in the game, everything they touch turns to rot.

Instead of telling the story the show runners took the opportunity to show the audience a gay love story we needed to see, and this is according to the directors actual statement.

    Pedro is good as Joel in the show, but something feels weird with Bella as Ellie (also because she looks like she is 20+ years old when she is supposed to be a teenager).

    As always, Neil (the creator of the game and show) is focusing more in the wokeism than in the actual show (same for the games).    … Expand

Why not take some Jack from Portland who walks across the country with another girl?

Then it quickly became obvious that, just like with the second game, the team involved in adapting this story have again decided to focus on all the unimportant, trivial aspects of the story. To give you an example, there isn't a single straight white man in the show that isn't evil lol. Episode 3 is nothing but Ron Swanson making out with another guy with a big beard, the whole episode. They completely forgot to introduce Bill since they were so caught up in telling us about his boyfriend and how much they love rubbing their beards together. I was invested, but episode 3 took me out. No need to tune in on Sundays anymore. I don't know who they made this show for, but whoever they are, I hope they love it lol.… Expand

    The character of Tess has nothing to do with the game one, she was badass, as dangerous as Joel (nearly killed Ellie when she knew she was infected), almost the gangster queen of the quarentine zone. In the show is so soft, bad survivor and absolute idiot in that final scene that its a bad joke comparing to the one of the game.

    Bill its also nerfed in the show. In the game he is so badass he had the controll of a entire town, but the town itself is dangerous full of traps, clickers and runners, even a bloater, (he even use some infected as defense against the hunters surrounding Lincoln). In the show its only a neighborhood and its as clean as a todays stores showcase, even after 20 years of apocalypse.
    He is so incompetent as a survivor that he exposed himself in the middle of the road tho get a shot!
    Game's Bill would have killed this **** tv Bill in one second. Also he didnt even meet Ellie, what a disappointment, they had a really interesting interaction.

    And after 3 episodes Ellie is still a non like able girl, very badly portrayed by the actress and the changes on her behaviour makes her a worse character (even if they are subtle changes, all of them are for worse and are killing the characters evolution that is so well done in the game). It hurts but after the expectations, Bella Ramsey its one of the worst casting choices ever made, period.    … Expand

    6 its a good punctuation for this series comparing to other tv shows, but it doesnt live up to the video game, also the lack of infected in a lot of the portion of the show (of the first 5 ep, only in 2) makes the world of this adaptation to be a walk on the park compared to the video game, they could at least put them in the background or in stealth scenes.

    By leaning just enough on the source material but not so much as to lose sight of the mission, which is to deliver a gut-wrenchingly emotional and poignant story, The Last of Us is not just the perfect adaptation; it’s an adaptation that has the potential to transcend even the original game.
