Can “The Last of Us” Outlive Its Antihero?

Sunday night, drama after the horrific “Another of us“His most wonderful chapter was so far. After the events of the first season, the HBO chain dual chain – Joel (Pedro Pascal), a rebel smuggler, and Elie (Bella Ramsey), his heterogeneous, heterogeneous daughter, until she fears the side, and they are perpetuated in fear. Therapist: I witnessed all rare goods in the wake of the innate epidemic that destroyed civilization as we know two decades ago. On the death of the murder of Joel.

In the season’s first show season, Joel sarcastically dismantled the mayor of Jackson, Maria (Rutina Wesley), who coincides with his sister, to tension in the city’s limited resources by welcoming strangers with open arms. (In a clear indication of our political reality, Maria Joel stated that, not long ago, he was also a refugee). But we also started seeing a different aspect of it: after five years in Jackson, Joel became a man from another person from another person. (This earned him the last time an entertaining reaction and an and sincerely from the best friend of Ellie, Dina: “Are you in ridiculous to treat? Collective zombies. The fences, very far to help, and the risks of the meeting feel a sharp character.

This feeling of intimate relationship also represents a flagrant exit from the first season, when Joel remained in one place for a long time to know its inhabitants really. The couple began their wild journey from Boston to Solt Lake City as strangers: Joel Elie, who made the infection immunity to her, considered a target for the guerrilla war group called Al -Wara’a, as just a “shipment”, and made his resistance to deeper ties less attractive than the horizons of the remaining and alive. There were military areas that were reaffirmed by the regime’s photo through repression, as well as the organized personality sects about the leader’s ability to provide a sense of goal. Often, these scattered societies have been distorted like the monsters he protected.

by The end of the first seasonNevertheless, the basic relationship has turned. In Utah, Joel discovers that the wreaths have arranged for the doctor to cut off Eli’s brain in an attempt to find a treatment – given the choice between saving it and saving the world, he chose it. He shoots the hospital, kills the wounds, and I Elie Al -Latoui pulled from the operating table, in a series of unimaginable decisions. At the opening of the second season, she is angry, a nineteen -year -old tattoo, and she cannot bring herself to talk to him. Pascal, unprecedented of Gunlinger Gruffness, is beautifully expressing Joel’s new guilt and isolation. Now in his sixties, and after he lost his daughter before she has the opportunity to grow away from him, Joel may be outside his depth in paternity and motherhood in adolescence. Elie, for her part, abandons his desire for her shelter even as her immunity, and increasing the hand with a pistol, giving her an invincible feeling of teenagers.

Although the second season gives these individual dynamics a greater space for breathing, it ends up feeling smaller than its predecessor at all. Soon, a subcutaneous plot that involves the crushing of Eli on the categorical written Dina (Isabella Mercyd) to the melodrama, and the narrative wrap and the construction of the world that approaches this filling that did not respect such a filling is replaced. When she takes a difficult task Eli to Seattle, she is arrested at the intersection of war between a worship obsessed with prophecy and a militia vulnerable to torture. Their mutual destruction is supposed to be more tragic because it blinds them to a much greater threat – that it is an increased fungus and infection – but do not drink any of the group in the first season. Abe (Kaitlin Diver), kills him in revenge. (In a sarcastic touch, his prosperous soft spot is what accuses him: a few minutes ago, he had saved Abe, a stranger, from the injured). All artillery feed is a person’s family, and at the end of the world these ties may be more commodity.

the games It is known that “the last of us” is also known for amazing perspective transformations. Joel is a traditional hero, even no, and Elie’s championship becomes less convincing with the progress of the second season. Like Joel (and in fact, Abe) in front of her, she became accurate in justice for a member of his family at any cost. The question is whether she is, too, she will undergo an irreplaceable mud. Sometimes, things grow. Often, a mistake grows. ♦
