I hadn't played The Last of Us in such a long time, years, so when my son and I started watching The Last of Us we decided to play the video game again.
If you haven't played the game before and you wanted to I think this show might put you off or be very confusing. It absolutely does not stick to the source material. Not the worst thing in the world but TLOU game has so many wonderful stories they didn't need to add.
My main complaint and it seems to be a recurring theme...why did they change Ellie? In the game Ellie is tough, kind, strong, witty and a little rough around the edges. Overall, very likable! A fun character to play and root for! In the show...oh my gosh she is so unlikable! She is the one character I wish would get turned into a zombie or d!e. Ellie is so rude, brash, irritating, grating, unsympathetic, brat! I also don't understand why Bella was chosen to play Ellie. She looks nothing like Ellie and doesn't have the acting chops to pull her off. I wanted so badly to love this series and my son loves watching it and wants me to watch with him but Ellie/Bella make this show almost unwatchable.
I don't think this show is a complete skip but it could be so much better. I hope the writers are taking notes of the critiques. Help Ellie be more likable as she is in the game.
I might have given this a 5 or 6 but I really don't buy all the 10s saying it's perfect stunning or masterpiece. Game of thrones has a 9.2, TWD 8.1, Breaking Bad 9.5, Sopranos 9.2 and this has an 8.7. This is not an 8.7...it could be but not yet.

This "documentary" if you can even call it that...more like mocumentary...is so incredibly biased! Another bought and paid for biased review just like the NYT article. You could tell the Buzzfeed editor, the guy from on The Ankler, Dina Doll and Emily Bergh are very biased or just terrified of kaleesi and her dragons.
I give this show 2 stars for having Perez Hilton and Kiersti Flaa. However, where is Candace Owens, Zack Peters or Stephanie Tleiji. They have all gone into minute details, sifted and read documents, spoken to multiple people who were on set and those who have worked with both Blake and Justin. They absolutely should have been interviewed if you really wanted to be truly unbiased!
I've never been a huge fan of Blake Lively but I have liked a few of the movies she's been in. I had never heard of Justin Baldoni before this movie. I know for a fact Coleen Hoover had a 'morals clause' in her contract with Justin that stated if Baldoni was found guilty she would get her movie rights back. This should be proof to everyone! She's been on camera ADMITTING she wishes she had the rights back bc she would love for Blake to have the movie rights NOT Justin. Further evidence for me personally.... I had been in a DV relationship before my husband and I have been harassed quite a few times in places I've worked (I waitressed and bartended thru college). He would NEVER and I mean NEVER joke about it! Ryan made jokes in his movie (Deadpool v Wolverine) and he made jokes during the SNL skit. I don't believe for a moment any loving husband would ever make light of or joke about their wife/mother of their children being harassed or abused if they honestly believed it happened and was traumatic. That should be a clear sign to everyone her claim is garbage!

I really enjoyed watching the first season and I was in the process of re-watching season 1 in preparation for season 2 since it had been so long. Well that is until I saw a bunch of out of touch 'white dudes' get on a zoom call. People all over are having a difficult time putting groceries on their table the last thing we want to hear is a bunch of wealthy white male stars political beliefs.
I really wish stars would keep their political beliefs to themselves. Why on earth would you alienate half your audience. Probably more than half given what this show is about. There are so many shows, so many streaming platforms this show can easily be replaced because I won't spend one more minute watching this.
