The Last of Us season 2 episode 5 draws criticism for 'bad quality' despite Joel's emotional flashback
The Last of Us season 2 episode 5 draws criticism
The Last of Us season 2 fans have not held back when expressing their dissatisfaction, especially when episode 5 was released. One viewer called the production "a minefield of mistakes," citing odd casting selections and "nonsensical little changes" in expression and story that, in their opinion, detract from the game's world.
One wrote, 'The Last of Us - Season 2, is a minefield of mistakes. Weird casting choices aside, it's the often nonsensical little changes to the overall narrative and dialogue that consistently ruin the whole atmosphere. Love it or hate it, but the game is infinitely better.'
A second added, 'Not vibing with Season 2 of the Last Of Us. It lacks the visceral weight of how the game was written.'
A third went on to add, 'How can a season be so inconsistent in quality like The Last of Us Season 2?'
How can a season be so inconsistent in quality like The Last of Us Season 2?Last weekend's episode made me question my will to continue watching the season, but yesterday's episode was actually – apart from a few minor issues – on par with Season 1, especially Nora–Ellie
The Last of Us season 2 is very very very shit. Ngl. What a terrible 2nd season to a fantastic first season. Something just feels off and I'll tell u what it's not bc Joel died.
Not vibing with Season 2 of the Last Of Us. It lacks the visceral weight of how the game was written.I don't think it's bad, it just feels safe? Like even tho it's following the story of the game, it feels like it's filtered.The game forces you to confront the most…

The Last of Us star Bella Ramsey wants to play next Spider-Man; deets inside
Los Angeles [US], August 18 (ANI): 'The Last of Us' fame Bella Ramsey has shared their desire to play a Marvel superhero after their Emmy-nominated performance in the series. Speaking to Variety, Ramsey reflected on Pedro Pascal's recent work in 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' stating that they could be the next 'Spider-Man.' "I could be Spider-Man. Tom Holland did a great job, though. So maybe they do need to make a new superhero for me," they said. Ramsey also spoke about being a newbie to superhero films, revealing that they recently watched Andrew Garfield's 'Spider-Man' film. "It was the first time I watched a Marvel film, and that was two months, three months ago," they said, further adding that they loed the film. Ramsey, who has worked alongside Pedro Pascal in 'The Last of Us' teased about what they would like to do next, since the latter's character has died in the second season. "I think maybe like a heist movie where we're robbing a bank together," they said. As of now, an update is still awaited for the third season. Kaitlyn Dever's Abby makes a formal entry into the franchise. After brutally killing Pascal's Joel to avenge her father's death, Abby is likely to take over as the lead character for the third season "The most important thing to me when I was going to play Abby and doing the prep for her is just really focusing on her grief. I wanted people to be able to really see that and feel that and really understand just how deep her pain is, understand how much time she's spent thinking about this and obsessing over it and calculating exactly what she was going to say and what she was going to do when she was face-to-face with Joel," Dever told The Hollywood Reporter. Following its successful run, 'The Last of Us' has bagged 16 nominations at the 77th Emmy Awards. (ANI)
