Around the Web
As heartbreakingly faithful as it is riveting and suspenseful, The Last of Us is a triumph that ends any further debate about the all-time best video game adaptation.
Nick Schager on The Daily Beast Druckmann and Mazin have taken this unforgettable story and made it richer and more impactful, letting us live with these characters and this world in a way that we couldn’t in the game. The Last of Us is a monumental success, and in this universe of incredible darkness, Mazin and Druckmann show us the light that makes this story so powerful.
Ross Bonaime on Collider Comfortably the best adaptation of a video-game ever made: one that deepens the game’s dystopian lore, while staying true to its emotional core. Like the game, it’s a masterpiece, too.
John Nugent on Empire There were a few changes compared to the game that turned out to be a welcome surprise. Take the episode about Bill, for example, which made his arc more dramatic and profound, whereas in the game it was merely a hook for action and an excuse for environmental traps.
Jeferson Balbueno on Filmow A consistent season using the devastated setting to examine the costs of survival and the loss of innocence. There is no right and wrong, and everyone is a monster in one way or another. It doesn't get everything right, but it comes very close to the quality of the game.
