If one can see one thing in today's times, it is that people tend to exaggerate. Something is either terrible or brilliant.
The same applies here. The fanboys (and girls) cheer the realization of an epic computer game as if this production would redefine the genre.
There are no innovations to be seen here. Of course, the effects and production design are very good and true to the original. The story is told in an exciting way. But you have to make compromises when it comes to the cast. For the role of Joel, I couldn't think of anyone better than Pedro Pascal, chapeau! But Ellie? Sorry, Bella Ramsey just doesn't fit at all to portray this ambiguous personality, on the one hand tender and on the other brave and self-sacrificing. She's more like the elephant in the china shop!
After two episodes, it is of course too early to give a final rating of a series. In this respect, we are eagerly awaiting what THE LAST OF US will offer us in terms of (hopefully) enjoyable entertainment!
