    Just let it go. i don’t even care man, this game is so important to me. definitely one of the most influential and life-altering games i’ve ever played (rivaled only by red dead 2). i pity those who chose to hate it before playing it. it’s a masterpiece and this documentary reinforces that. i have nothing but the utmost faith in naughty dog no matter the path they choose to go down next. forever grateful for everything they’ve already given me.

    It’s a documentary about how they made my favorite video game of all time. Of course I’m going to love every second of it. Fascinating process, so much valuable insight, doesn’t shy away from the real world effect toxic fandom has had on these creatives. Things I wish had been discussed, but weren’t: • Gustavo Santaolalla and Mac Quayle score, their collaboration and finding that balance of tone between the two • Defining the WLF and Seraphite groups, building their history/religious practices, Isaac’s history especially would have been neat to hear about • The recreation of certain real life Seattle buildings, redesigning the interiors of others such as the Seattle Aquarium, the potential challenges of maintaining visual aesthetics across Jackson,…

    Probably the most overhated game to date, I’m still hoping people warm up to this game in the next few years and see the vision Neil Druckmann was attempting to achieve because if you ask me, this is one of the best games ever.

    manuela 8 月 18, 2026

    An incredible amount of effort and dedication went into the development of this game, I believe Naughty Dog truly changed the video game industry by releasing this masterpiece. Although I don’t have much gaming experience aside from Persona 5, and unfortunately don’t own a console to play TLOU (I watched the gameplay), it has inspired me to explore other games in the future. Nevertheless, I believe The Last Of Us will remain one of the best-written works in gaming culture.…

    Um documentário muito bom sobre um jogo incrível! Adoro ver essa parte por trás das cenas mostrando como eles criam e fazem as coisas que transformam um jogo em algo tão mágico. 🎮 Pra mim The Last of Us Part II é um dos melhores jogos que existe e com certeza está no meu top favoritos da vida! 💚

    It’s crazy how much goes into making a video game. Really amazing insights in this doc. Really liked that they discussed a lot of touchy moments like Joel’s death, the fandom reaction and toxicity, crunch within ND. Wish they talked more about the soundtrack, the side characters, the choice of Seattle.

    “ I’m gonna find… and I’m gonna kill… every last one of them. “ This documentary is wild. To make the killings and violence as realistic as possible, they used what looks like litres of blood on mud, walls, and ceilings, and even tested on lamb meat to see how a human arm would look after being beaten with a hammer. That level of dedication really shows how seriously Naughty Dog took the game. The last half hour of this…

    One thing I love about video games is how they let you explore thoughts and emotions in a unique way that no other medium can replicate. Imagine going through grief, unshackled by the laws of modern society, free from any obligation to “hold it together” for the sake of human decency. Ellie lets you imagine a world where the answer to grief and loss, is pure unfiltered violence, it’s blood splattered across rooms, it’s stabbed hearts and faces scarred beyond…

    I don’t have to have just watched it to recommend to everyone. Please do yourself a favor and play these beautiful games and watch probably the greatest most emotional making Ofs I’ve ever seen. Naughty Dog is in my opinion one of the top three game companies just from how much heart and soul is put into each project. I’ve played Last of Us Part 2 four times and cry each time. I’ve never played a game so fluid, so…

In all seriousness though, if there’s a “Letterboxd” for video games pls someone put me on. My love for movies runs deep, but my love for video games runs deeper.

    ESTÁ REVIEW ES DEL VIDEOJUEGO. La verdad no tengo palabras para expresar la tremenda aventura que he tenido. No entiendo como un juego pueda hacer que empatices con el “malo” de la historia. Que quiero decir con esto? Te hacen ver como es el camino vengativo de Ellie hacia Abby, quien mató la figura paterna de Ellie. La cosa es, que Abby hizo eso también por venganza, por haber matado a su padre. Aquí te das cuenta que no hay…

    La historia no es mala, el personaje de Abby tampoco, la venganza como consecuencia de la mentira tiene mucho sentido y golpea fuerte porque así es la vida, lo único malo de esta parte 2, es el orden de eventos, hubiera sido mejor empatizar con Abby, conocerla antes de que pasara lo que pasa acá y así dividir más a la audiencia, en cambio acá ya cuando juegas con ella, solo la odias.

    Avec cette review je note davantage les deux jeux que les documentaires, même si j’ai énormément apprécié ces derniers. Pour moi, Tlou Part I et Part II forment une seule et même œuvre, un peu comme les deux Kill Bill. Et en tant qu’œuvre complète, c’est l’un des meilleurs jeux de tous les temps et, aux côtés de Silent Hill 2, Nier ou encore FF7, l’une des plus grandes histoires de ce média. Je soutiens tous les choix narratifs de…

    Après avoir refait les deux Last of Us dans la semaine je m’attaque aux making of… Quelques passages un peu trop lisses pour être crédibles (la nouvelle politique anti-crunch mise en place, toute la partie sur l’adaptation en série…) mais sinon c’était très riche et permet de bien ressentir la pression sur les épaules du studio afin d’essayer de donner une suite (dans les temps) à un tel jeu.

    An inspiring and sobering peek behind the steel curtain of Naughty Dog. Between COVID, the leaks, relentless online abuse, and impossible expectations, it’s incredible this team never lost sight of their vision. A masterclass in keeping your head down while the world burns. More than a making-of, it’s a testament to great art and the human cost of chasing perfection.

    A level of storytelling and humanity once thought impossible for a video game to achieve. This documentary encapsulates the immense creative effort behind a 30 hour experience, but it just made me want to think about the game itself even more. I wish the last of us Parts I and II were easier for more people to get into, though the TV series does exist, it can never replicate what it feels like to literally inhabit Ellie and Abby for…

    I have no idea on what bases you’re able to rate a making-off of a video game, but this one feels personal to me. The Last of us have been one of my favorite games ever, so it has been interesting to get to see behind the curtains of the development. In a film-making sense, I think this was made quite good as well. The variations of reactions, interviews, gameplay etc. has been made very entertaining to watch, while also showing never-before-seen footage as well.

    not only is the last of us part 2 my favorite video game of all time but it might be my favorite narrative across any medium. I’m so in love with this story and these characters. every emotion feels so real and three-dimensional. it’s crazy to me that groups of people still despise this game. have they not played it? Do they lack the ability to think critically about the art they consume? whatever it is, I hope they get well soon.

    a ashley disse que a bella é a única que poderia interpretar a ellie então não me desce pessoas falando que a merda colossal que foi a segunda temporada da série foi por causa dos atores sendo que foi por conta de uma direção e roteiro extremamente horriveis e incompetentes btw amo o jogo

    The making of what is possibly my favourite video game of all time. I’d just like to reiterate what the top review says with a big FUCK YOU to the server hacker. And to anyone who sent death threats to the creatives behind this game. Can’t wait for Part III

    This is reason I barely watched movies last week— getting this on steam and finally playing the game for myself after years of hearing how hated it is by many groups of people. I am happy to say I don’t fall into the hate camp, but I also can’t call it a masterpiece. The Last of Us Part 2 is an experience that you rarely get from video games. Whether you like the game or not, the game is an…

    Этот фильм не про «как делали игру». Он про то, как создавали something that stays with u, я смотрел и не мог оторваться Как актеры буквально live it, это пик, а озвучка зараженных это вообще отдельный повод для обсуждения, это очень сильно. Так же хотелось бы подметить кровь и violence в игре, ты буквально witness something horrible, это не для красоты, ты как бы не хочешь убивать, а ты вынужден это делать, крч фильм piece of art, не просто документалка, это честный и важный фильм. Рекомендую к просмотру

    PINCHE PELICULA HERMOSA DE 25 HORAS! Nunca pensé que el juego fuera a ser tan cinematográfico, sin duda alguna me sorprendí de la delicadeza que tiene el juego para plantear una historia tan rica en personajes, sin duda alguna es de las mejores experiencias que he tenido jugando videojuegos. Gracias por brindarnos un juego que nos narra de manera clara el inevitable espiral de violencia en el que llegamos a caer por culpa del rencor y como nuestras acciones provocadas por el mismo, afectan a nuestro entorno y a la gente que nos rodea, provocando un efecto domino con las peores consecuencias posibles.

    como me estoy jugando los juegos de nuevo, vuelvo a hablar sobre esta historia (no se porque en letterboxd igual pero no me importa) yo no exagero cuando digo que conocer tlou me cambió la vida, es un claro ejemplo de que, en un mundo así, lo único que realmente importa es encontrar la forma de seguir sobreviviendo y no existe ni una ética ni moral. nunca me voy a cansar de decir que es increíble la cantidad de detalles…

    Easily one of my favourite games of all time no question but I only played it like last year but do remember the backlash, it’s crazy to me that a game of this standard had the reception it did and the controversy you still see now with the show. Obviously the game was full of praises when released but fuck the person who leaked the game before that, did not affect a single part of my time playing the game…

    This is a review for the game (although I did quite like the documentary too) I think what this price of media represents is an unnecessary divide of bigotry, hate, and difference that seems to suggest that people going into this game wanted to be bad, and that’s true it’s impossible to not already this story with its reception online and how people cinema sinned the shit out of it through reaches in logic, plotholes that aren’t actually plotholes, and…

    Muita gente costuma reclamar da série the last of us pois alguns personagens não ficaram tão parecidos e teve todo aquele romance entre Dina e ellie mas eu gostei e oque importa pra mim é minha opinião. Ótima série, de acordo com o jogo ainda falta coisas pra acontecer então espero a terceira temporada, acho que tudo ocorreu bem, não poderia ser uma série totalmente focada em morte,zumbi,morte,zumbi. Os produtores fizeram certo e na medida correta, gostei.

    Dylan S 7 月 6, 2026

    I think the second game is a half a star worse than the original, just because of how similar it feels. Open-world The Last of Us sounds so crazy and bad. It’s more sexist for women characters to be untouchable and always safe and protected. The plot leaks were wild. A great introspective documentary about the making of The Last of Us Part II. 2024 Rankings

    About 10 minutes into the doc, I realized I had the free will to just not watch it as it was profoundly uninteresting in its direction and editing and subject matter. Anyways, I just finished the game after like a month of slogging through it. What an oddity! I have never experienced something I equally hated and loved as much as this. I don’t even know that bearing all the bad parts was worth it. I’ll start with the positive:…

    Different level of deadass when I say I love Tlou more than my family. Don’t know the first step on making a video game and devs showing all the different parts broken down, to my surprise is a bit too intriguing since I never thought I would be impressed by computers again after failing csa. Even the most basic aspects require EXTENSIVE planning. All the separate teams going indepth to record the right footsteps noises, bringing motion capture to animation,…

    Loved this story of the making the prosses and the downfall of the prosses of making the game and this whole prosses of making the last of us was just a emotional rollercoaster, in the beginning with the first teaser trailer, then with the sad death of joel, then the E3 demo trailer, with everyone hyped, then covid, then all the anger and backlash, with the death threats, and then Neil said and I quote “I remember sitting there, sitting…

    A pesar de que esta tenía más escenas de acción, no fue mi favorita, y Dios, que sufrimiento esta temporada. La amiga de ellie qué rara es, no me agrada para ella nono. Y sobre Joel espero que antes de morir el haya comprendido que está muy mal dejarse llevar por el sentido de sobrevivencia todo el tiempo, a tal punto de no reconocer al que tiene al frente como una persona también.

    i love video games. some of the greatest story telling and narrative skills out there. last of us is the prime of the prime. this doc was way better than i thought it would be. it’s almost not really about the game but the culture around which it’s made/anticipated/and released in. something to be said about ambition in this grandiose sense when you’re working on something that is really an experience. it’s something i sometimes don’t necessarily even feel about…

    Just finished replaying this game once more and it’s so cool to see how it was developed. The character building is impeccable! Ellie, who we initially play as and view as the hero, slowly deteriorates due to her obsession with getting revenge by killing Abby, losing herself and her loved ones in the process. Where as, Abby, who we first view as the villain of the last of us, is infact seeking revenge for her father, mirroring Ellie. Abby, however,…

    I always love watching a documentary on how video games are made. The first Grounded documentary for the first game was really great and this was equally as great when seeing how the game could have looked (a Bloodbourne style Last of Game would have made me rage quit so quickly). It sounds strange to say but my favourite part was when it came to the leaks. I remember at the time it was a big deal but to see…
