Mar 16, 2023We will have to wait till amazons fallout to see if theres another arcane, but arcane is still lonely as the only good videogame based movie or show.
-

Mar 1, 2023Boring unlike the game, very slow cuz they erase all action and good dialogue, Joel and Ellie still didnt know each other properly in 7 episodes, with only 2 left they are barely developed.
-
Feb 1, 2023As a huge fan of the game I love how it mirrors the gameplay and how the show can expand the world of the game with great casting
-
Mar 15, 2023They crazy, lost plenty of time in useless plots, 3, 7 and even most part of 4 and 5, they better had used that time developing the main characters and the world itself.
-
Feb 1, 2023Playing the game through multiple times and now watching it come to life on HBO I can definitively say this is the best Zombie/Survival Horror show or movie ever! Thank you HBO!

Feb 2, 2023HBO quality! Last of Us is a fantastic game and a fantastic tv show. Good cast and good story. Much better than Walking Dead and very close to video game roots.
-
Feb 1, 2023lotta triggered snowflakes, if you want a one for one adaption, play the game. but yall got triggered by that too. weak.
-
Jan 31, 2023Unquestionably the best adaptation of a video game. The episodes are touching and very well acted.
-
Feb 14, 2023that's a breath of fresh air. finally. the girl is incredibly talented and even mr. Pascal is actually surprising good.
-
Feb 20, 2023Best Videogame adaption ever. Would be a great show even if the games didnt exist
-

Mar 14, 2023True gamers knows the truth, they will not fall in this cheap version, the rest go and search on youtube TLOU PART 1 full movie and even walktrough if you want to experience a good story.
-
Mar 15, 2023Most of the good reviews are for the first episode of january, before they could know how bad they were going to manage the story, thats the only reason of this not being already at 5 or lower.
-
Mar 16, 2023Some friends of mine thought it was good after the first episodes, i told them to watch the entire game on youtube first, now they hate the show hahahahaha.
-
Feb 2, 2023This show is the best screen adaptation of a game EVER. Hands down, no question. It's awesome!
-
Feb 24, 2023Pure garbage, this is not based on the famous action adventure game but in a walking simulator instead.
-
Feb 24, 2023Every masterpiece (The Last of Us game) has its cheap copy (this stupid hbo show)
-
Feb 26, 2023Terrible.
As a huge TLOU fan, they **** it in every aspect. Don't listen to the people who say it is faithful to the game -- a lot of them piss their pants, probably didnt play the game or their IQ is stone level and didnt get the greatness of the writting when they played then. It deserves a lower score. -
Feb 1, 2023Ignore the MASSIVE amount of homophobic small brained mouth breathers review bombing due to their insecurities. This episode was amazing. Acting was fantastic and really gave Joel and Ellie a great moral starting point with Bills last letter.
-
Feb 1, 2023A truly fantastic adaptation. The greatest game series becomes a great moment in TV history.
-
Feb 27, 2023Girl 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.
-
Feb 1, 2023Everything a smart videogame's fan wanted to see, his/her favorite game becoming a really good TV or cinema adaptation. This series goes beyond the game, deeper and deeper into the Story and into spectator's emotions. Superb cast doing a wonderfull work with characters that deserves no less.
-
Feb 21, 2023very overrated...Poor acting.. The faces of the actors are not similar to the game..It is boring to see
-
Feb 22, 2023Vaya mojon de serie, increible como han descuartizado la historia con cambios estupidos sin sentido y quitando aspectos clave de la historia, obviando los mejores niveles del juego asi como cambiando los personajes y su naturaleza. Joel con ataques de panico es un debil en los combates y en general y Ellie es una sadica ahora sin sentido.
-
Feb 27, 2023I love games, but this one... boring, forced. Awful casting. Unfortunately, as much as I expected, it's a disappointment.
-
Feb 28, 2023Ramseys performance is below acceptable, that potato face with those unexpresive eyes its a hilarious tandem.
-
Mar 20, 2023
-
Mar 6, 2023There isnt a single infected in this supossed infected world, why even bother to make a vacine if the infected are in extintion danger? Its a joke this is supossed to be based on the original game, looks like completlly diferent worlds
-
Mar 28, 2023Everyone put heart and soul into this show. Bella was amazing in a very difficult role to play convincingly especially episode 8.
-
Mar 14, 2023Pretentious, boring, they thought that copying a few sentences and filling the rest with lazy writting would work, they were so wrong.
-
Mar 14, 2023Je dois mettre n'importe quoi parce qu'ils n'ont pas compté mon vote 0 & 0 ZERO
-
Mar 15, 2023Falta mucha personalidad a los personajes, no tienen la riqueza del juego, falta sentimiento a la historia
-
Mar 15, 2023
-
Mar 15, 2023They tryed to sell their narrative uuh yeah we care about this story... bait, they dont, dont watch it.
-
Mar 16, 2023Wheres ellie? Even joel is different, every character is changed for worse.
-
Mar 16, 2023I waited till the end to rate the season, glad i did it, it start on level but continue floping till the last episode, they were clueless of what they had in their hands, they forgot to develop the main caharcters, theres no emotional investment to keep going through the season, i had to force myself to finish it.
-
Mar 16, 2023Episode after episode becomes more clear that there wasnt enough money to push the production till the level it deserve. Everything looks cheap, and every AAA scene of the game that would require a high budget its erashed, pittsburgh hotel birdge and streets, bills town all the infecteds, jackson hidroelectric complex, salt lake city flood... and overall of the infected
-
Feb 2, 2023Perfect, just the best game adaptation to a shown ever made. They really nailed it.
-
Jan 31, 2023This show is doubtlessly awesome and impeccable and i believe fans should stop hating on it just because it went beyond the lore-imposed borders. What’s the point in watching a brand-new SHOW simply BASED on the original game if you resent every alteration made? If u feel like it, go youtube/the_last_of_us_game_playthrough and don’t spoil it for the adequate ones. Thanks.
-
Feb 22, 2023Wheres the logic of taking the best written game ever, adapt it to a tv show where you cut every single epic moment of the narrative and combat, who ever is the responsible of this should be banned in all entertainment industry, that mazin guy demonstrate that he was lucky with chernobyl.
-
Feb 24, 2023What you get when you take off all the smart lines of the game is souless charcters and protagonist with no charisma at all. They are mere shadows of the games originals.
-
Jan 30, 2023It's an excellent show and the casting is great. Ignore any review that mentions "woke". It's a sure fire sign that the reviewer is an idiot. Sad little white men, furious that they're not allowed to look down on everyone else anymore.
-
Jan 20, 2023A sensational adaptation. True fans of the game will love it, and those unfamiliar with the game will have no problem following along. Brilliant casting, direction, and writing, and as a bonus it somehow seems to have upset the incels – fantastic.
-

-
Jan 30, 2023Best TV show I've seen in years. I was cautiously optimistic before but it's ended up being better than I would've imagined
-
Jan 24, 2023great series, all the actors played their roles perfectly, I'm a big fan of the TLOU universe, and after watching the series I learned a lot about my favorite universe, I would rate the series 10000000000000000000000000000000000/10
-
Feb 19, 2023Love it all the haters need to get over themselves and stop watching if they're going to get triggered over characters that have always been gay. So many people are showing how little they paid attention to the game by getting mad about Bill, boy are they gonna get mad if they when they find out about Ellie, or other characters from Last of us 2. Stay mad nerds.
-
Mar 15, 2023Cant believe it still has a 7, its nothing special, people are delusional, play the game if you want to enjoy a unforgetable story, the show is souless.
-
Mar 15, 2023Looks like Arcane will remain as the only good videogame movie/show, this one doesnt pay justice to the last of us videogame.
-
Mar 15, 2023For the mainstream, production focused more on politics than quality, akward situations.
-
Mar 15, 2023Ended up being another boring product, there were only some bits of action in the first episodes.
-
Mar 15, 2023Ramsey est plus laid qu'un zombie, Craig un imbécile incompétent pédant idiot comme un roc ne sait pas de quoi parle le jeu.
-
Mar 15, 2023The arrogance of the chernobyl shorrunner is disgusting, have some respect for the source you are using fatto old guy.

-
Jan 27, 2023The best game to movie adaptation so far. Fans of the game will be delighted by additional lore and storytelling fleshed out by a great creative director who is also a fan of the series. A true precedence for any upcoming games adaptation.
-
Jan 25, 2023The prologue alone is 10/10. Great casting, Bella and Pedro have been doing a great job so far.
-
Jan 28, 2023Gripping and well made. A great adaptation to the game, and also great for newcomers.
-
Jan 25, 2023Me: Played the game, loved the show.
Wife: Never played the game, loved the show.
Friends/Family: Never played the game, love the show.
Such a good show! -
Feb 20, 2023Enough 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.
-
Feb 21, 2023
-
Mar 13, 2023One of the worst adaptations ever, they changed the whole relationship betwen Joel and Ellie, she doesnt made Joel a different person, theres no evolution at all of any character. Every little thing they add out of nowhere its absolute crap. Dont belive the good ratings, its form people so simple they didnt caught the originals history and its meaning.
-
Mar 13, 2023The only good episode is the last one, and the only really about the main characters. I lost my time with this show, theres no consistency, plenty of empty episodes, key situations of the game absent. Unlike the game, its very bad written, wich is unbeliable giving the fact that the games one is the best screenplay of the las 10 years iof any industry.

Feb 4, 2023There is clear evidence here that AI-generated media reviews are going to make sites like this much less helpful. Unless Metacritic figures out how to combat bots gaming the reviews, you are going to lose your readership.

Jan 18, 2023Metacritic reviews are usually a cesspool, not even fun to read and laugh at because people don't have any real thoughts of their own, just "WOKE, MISCAST, I MISS WHITE JOEL!!!"
What a bunch of BABIES. Lol
Lol The first episode was captivating. Loved it. Wanna see where it goes. -
Jan 18, 2023The great adaptation of games for TV! The Last Of US is the most faithful and detailed representation of a game ever made for the screen, and is a love letter to the fans. Congratulations HBO for the adaptation, and as a fan thank you very much!
-
Jan 21, 2023I liked it a lot. Good acting and story telling with the right amount of suspense, drama, and action. I think it will be a good show.
-
Jan 18, 2023Through appropriate editing and adaptation, while respecting the story of the original work, it removed the boring parts well.
-
Jan 18, 2023As a fan of the Last of Us games, I was very satisfied with this adaptation. It really recreated the feeling of the game, while still managing to create its own unique portrait. I can’t wait to see the next episodes. I would say it is an immersive and captivating start to something huge.
-
Jan 16, 2023Being idolising ND games i personally felt that It's a great start but could have been better. Will edit my review if upcoming episodes meets my expectations.
-
Jan 31, 2023It captures the video game perfectly. Areas where it's had to be changed are dine well. Character in which things are expanded are done beautifully as well. Further, it angers bigots. Even better.
-
Jan 28, 2023Being a PC gamer, I haven't played the game. So, without any previous knowledge, I've watched an excellent tv show, with well developed characters, pretty cool effects and a story that keeps me wanting for more. A big plus on the absence of constrained political correctness. Congrats on a job well done
-
Jan 19, 2023Intense show. Also it's always a pleasure to read right wing crybabies' complaints about hallucinatory imagined wokeness. So: Thanks ND.
-
Jan 19, 2023It had its flaws, but let's ignore them, the rest of the series was great❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Jan 22, 2023all these dumb negative reviews come from people who didn't play the game and either bought it for 60 dollars and didn't like it the tv show is amazing.just like the game same story.
-
Jan 16, 2023
-
Jan 18, 2023As good as the game so far!!! The characters are well written.
I think that it is going to be very good and interesting. -
Jan 23, 2023Excelente serie, respectaron el espíritu del juego, es la mejor adaptación de un video juego
-
Jan 22, 2023Never played the games, but watched playthroughs and remember thinking that the intro sequence would make for a great movie or series. And that it did, and the way small details were added and original ideas were mixed in to fully use the dramatic potential of those first scenes gives me high hopes for the rest.
-
Jan 24, 2023I have not played the game. I thought is boring, but dudes I really regret that. If game is even close of atmosphere of the show, I have to play it. There are some elements that we can find in other movies/shows. But after two episodes, it's really complete story.
-

Feb 11, 2023
-
Mar 13, 2023a series that leaves something to be desired, I played the game and this series was changed, I do not recommend it. It already bothers me to see Sarah black when she is blonde with blue eyes, they didn't even respect that and I stopped seeing her when I got to episode 3.
-
Feb 25, 2023not a great adaptation, alot of people are overating this game, they also put political stuff in that just isn't needed in a show where we are suppose to enjoy
-
Feb 20, 2023Hahaha its so laughlable, by any means this show its expanding the lore of the gama or the story. It cuts 80% of the games scecenes and best dialogue, every change is for worse overall and only in the sixth episode are the only worth dialogue aditions. Ep 3 is not a expansion is a change of the story you d*mb. The whole series feels more like a alternative take of the story than an adaptation.
-
Feb 21, 2023Who can like this high pile of garbage, they have done so bad, now Joel is a weak ass with heart problems and emotional break downs.
-
Feb 27, 2023Lacks the layers and deep psicology of the games characters, not worth the time nor the name it cant carry.
-
Mar 2, 2023Pedro is doing good for the version of Joel of the show, different from the game. But Ramsey should be banned from film industry, dont worry she dosnt care, she has no emotions, or her face is dead and cant expres it.
-
Mar 3, 2023Just waiting how they are going to ruin the game story in the las episodes even more than what they have already done with the first ones, its just maths. Craig Mazin is now in the black list of absolute garbage director.
-
Mar 5, 2023Why they changed Ellies character? Who would want to save the anoying antipatic Ramseys version? They **** the whole thing
-
Mar 13, 2023The ending feels rushed, weird dialogue in the last scenes makes unconfortable to watch, what the hell was that more femenine?
-
Mar 14, 2023Sad... another mediocre adpatation, if done well should've been the best show ever, wont live up the source material. Hope they forget about this show sooner than later.
-
Mar 16, 2023Why 0? Take the final scene of both the game and the series, then compare Ashleys face and eyes expresions, body language, everything, and ramseys absolute cold dead face, static body, she has no emotions no passion for acting.
Awards & Rankings
-
Don’t be put off by the mushroom monsters – this is a fully realised human parable, with TLOU evolving into a brutal, passionate, post-apocalyptic western par excellence.
-
Anchored by two outstanding lead performances from Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal, it delivers an enriching show for fans of the PlayStation hit, while also managing to stay welcomingly thrilling to newcomers.
-
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.
