In the later years Our last part ii Launched in 2020, I have seen an interesting event when people talk about a naughty dog’s sequel sequel. Some people talk about Eli’s revenge story in the ways that I have experienced is contradictory. Where i will call Our last part ii The caused by grief ended with a beautiful tragedy and forgiveness, others claim that it is a meaningless practice of violent abuse that transforms a once -time video game icon into an unclear villain. Even if I do not agree with the latter and look for surprised arguments with these lines, there is still some courage about a game that is so open for this interpretation. Meanwhile, the HBO Live Action Series feels frightened that no one will find it, and the result is a strange patron version of the story that once trusted to follow its audience.

To the non -divided viewers, The last of us‘The second season will probably not register as much Different from before. If you are not familiar with the PlayStation 4 game, it is based on it, then it will come straight as a direct television with the emotional restriction of your average day soap opera. The first season also did, to fully see the actors with new scenes to look at the camera primarily and to describe all the nuances of morally suspicious people that they consider to be right. I was mostly at the scenes in Season One to aerol Pedro Pascal, as Joel, happily told Bella Ramsey’s Eli how he finally got a second chance of being a father.. However, the constant insistence of Season Two is so unbearable on telling you the topics of the story that it gives you the opportunity to consider how you feel about how you should be.

Our last part ii‘SYSTIKE When the characters call each other – and by extension, viewers – everything is called. For example, very early in the season, the show lifts the game curtains Secret second character Abe was played through the Catlin Dour, and his backdrop. Later, she gives a monopoly of a villain before she presented a series of casualties, just everyone in the room becomes clear about why she is willing to cross several state lines in pursuit of the vendita. All this suggests a show that does not want any part of the deliberate disconnection between the player and the main character that the naughty dog ​​made in the game.

Abbey is not the only victim of this confusion in priorities. Eli is the same as the player off the wall Part IIWith its own goals and point of view, unless the flashbacks from time to time show why it is in such a contradictory, violent cycle. HOBO is Spread Part IIStory in multiple seasonsAnd apparently, it was decided that viewers could not sit for many years if players could barely bear it for 25 hours. Therefore, instead of a loyal reflection of the game’s approach, we find a thick, rotating version of all the events that treat every moment of Eli’s violent spiral, like an interpreted explainer on the power of YouTube. I have always found Ramsey and Pascal’s performances deeply inferior to their game counterparts, but in season two, it is difficult to tell if this is the only problem in the substance, because both actors spend so much time to explain and explain these things that the game has been made with a more viral, a substantial, subtract.

I understand the hesitation in bringing a story like a thorns Our last part ii With the wider audience, some of these thorns are removed. Certainly, this game has been widely appreciated As a great time greatBut the story of revenge is still incredibly discriminated, and the worst people in the gaming have taken it so far that Laura Bailey, who photographs Abbie in the game, received it. Threats against the safety of his family. Dor Had some extra security on the set If the same people tried something, the actor was shooting his scenes in Season Two. Most of this is due to a lack of sympathy for the character situation, but Our last part ii Is there a story that does not understand people to each other, nor live in a world where only one language speaks volume: violence.

Overall, the show looks quietly frightened. Unlike a player who experiences the game, the audience aims to stay in a particular point of view and to put the scene into practice. As a result, it seems that the creators of the show have decided that it has to uncover everything, and the imagination has to leave no action, stimulus or regret, only when you were not convinced that everyone here was involved in the grieving cycle of violence that was being maintained. The last of us Season Two doesn’t want you to feel sympathetic to both of his heroes. It wants to make sure that you think that’s it. You may not feel any sympathy with Abbie, you think Eli has gone too far, but you don’t have to decide. The show already knows the lessons that he has to teach him, and the disadvantage of the suicide attack is that no one talks to each other as they are not aware that someone is watching them.

The decision to vague all these nuances was the basis of the story Our last part ii Said; Meanwhile, this show has removed all that ambiguity and has nothing to offer in its place. It replaces bold, discriminatory choices for safe people. It promotes the action, though I have found some large battles, with an affected group to look less less sensational. We spend some extra time with characters like Isaac, the leader of the Washington Liberation Front. It was once again presented by the excellent Jeffrey Wright, By rejecting his character from the gameAnd he has some most fascinating scenes throughout the season, even if he becomes a victim of unnatural exhibitions like everything on the show. Asyabella Merced by Eli’s new girlfriend is a delight, although most of her character feels lost in translation without the time of the extension that allows you to spend with her in the search class.

I deliberately know about the details of what happens in Season Two because I still think that if you don’t know what you are entering, some episodes will be surprising. In addition, we will have a weekly recovery for every incident when the weather is broadcast on the season. But my way to take a big picture is that in this season it feels like to be good and sick, to make you feel that you are about to feel about it. That’s why Our last part ii Discrimination, but it also has the same effect as it is with those with whom it resonates. Failed to try and adapt to the original game structure, The last of us Season two felt like a summary together. Certainly, it’s more entertaining than reading a summary, but it is definitely less thoughtful than the source content.

Many people have described The last of us As its cinema nature and linear story “trying to be a game movie”, but so far, passive version Part II It has only made it clear that it was far more than the kits that were standing together by stealthy shooting. The game that was deliberately traveling between you and Eli, Abe, and Joel was always something that could only perform a game. But if you are not playing a role in a player that he is restless, why not get the audience any problem? Our last part ii It was always higher than the amount of money, where I tell most people not to decide on the game until they make credit. In translating this game into a show, HBO has robbed it from its most important elements, and I do not expect that when it finally ends after telling the story, it will change Part II. Just play the game.
