Another superb episode.

Another great episode here. Story progressing and an amazing outing of game characters on screen. This world is beautiful and disgusting and awesome. Can’t wait for the next episode.
THIS WAS INCREDIBLE. This really made a great background to the story that you didn’t see in the game. I really appreciated this look of the world outside of what we saw in the games.
Christine Hakim as Ibu Ratna
Anna Torv as Tess
Wow, I’m impressed. Just amazing showing here by Anna Torv. I really felt for her character, and she did a great job!
Tess being kissed by Infected
And her death... powerful! I loved it, and it was very well executed. Really making the story progress. Love it!
This world is so realized.. both in game and now on screen. It's amazing.
The World
Pedro Pascal.. absolutely incredible job portraying Joel. SO GOOD.
Oh my my my, Bella Ramsey is DOING IT! Really bringing Ellie alive on screen. She is not Ashley Johnson, of course, but this episode really shows a good showing for her adaptation, and I like it. We're getting some Joel and Ellie humor together, and just a great showing all around.
Tess and Ellie
OH CLICK CLICK CLICK.. this was an INTENSE SCENE. The game is scary - to say the least, but the clicker's are one of the reasons for that. And this show really portrayed them well. They are terrifying! And if you'd not played the game, they're still terrifying, but if you'd played the game.. you know exactly what they are and how perfectly realized they are on screen.
A Clicker
I can't wait to see what happens next in the show.. I'm excited to see more between these two.
Joel and Ellie
Without a doubt, another 5/5. The show is really doing something impressive here, and I'm not sure if the show can be any better than these first two episodes.. we'll see!
There is now.. a The Last of Us in Review page! For all things The Last of Us, by me!
