The Last of Us (2023)
I has the feel and look but Ellie is lacking
I went in to this with an open mind and about 10 full play throughs of the original game, I love this game and story, my wife watch me play it the first time and saw my face turn to shock and have to pause the game when the first shock moment presents it's self.
I think the cast on a whole have done a fantastic job of giving us something we wanted to see presented in the TV series but no matter how hard I try I cannot see Bella Ramsey as Ellie, she just is not a good fit, I ddon't understand how they made the choice when there were so many other options but now we are stuck with a lack lustre lead and it hurts because the story will pay for it.
I hope she starts to improve in the role after the first episode but I cannot see it.
Limitless (2022)
Great overall but missed huge opertunities.
For me episode 1 was a great start but the lady expect was a waste of space and chris could have done this without her. Trhe following eppisodes got better and better but the one of fasting could have been so much better.
The final episode was awful, I am not against facing my own death but the make believe old people home/village was just rediculous and the aging of Chris's wife was so bad that he recognised her before she even turned around. The guy who was the self proclaimed god of palliative care was just terrible, most of the lessons here are learned by most people buy their early 20s through loss of family and friends. What a terrible way to round of a really good series. Don't let this put you off but I can tell you, you won't miss anything if you do not watch the final episode, but you will get an hour of your life back and I think Chris will be ok with that :)
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (2022)
This is the Star Trek I have been waiting for so long.
I grew up on Star Trek, I'm a "young" 50 year old, I've seen the good and bad sci-fi and the good is hard to come by imho but this hits the mark, scratches that itch or just plain gets it right. I got the feel of excitement you rarely get anymore when you watch something knowing you have a full series in front of you and it is already being treated in the right way. Thank you!
