Movie Reviews
This is a great episode. With a powerful script, the writers were able to make a great one hour and four minutes with just two people with zero dull moments. We have seen the show make-do an episode with just two people in the past but it wasn't as impressive as this. Thick screenplay, great dialogues and terrific filmography form the hallmark for this episode. It really helps us understand the characters. The end was also really heavy and touchy. This episode thus will remain as one of the best character-building episode of the series.
My Rating 9.2/10
*DO NOT READ BELOW IF IT HURTS TO TAKE CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM* *NO SPOILERS*
( I have always got down-votes for writing critically regarding an episode, so I had to put up this sign)
This episode also raises the following questions in my head. - Why do the writers often go back to the past of a character. I agree it helps us to know the characterization, but till what extent? -There are 10 to 15 key characters in the show. Are the show makers going to produce 15 episodes to build their characterization? We have seen in the past a few episodes focused on a character and that character who we known to the minute detail is dead. This raises a whole set of questions about the kind of show this is.
-Is this a show that takes the audience through the apocalyptic journey or focuses on how a character behaves in a certain way. The negative aspect about this kind of taking of the show is, some elements and characters get too much of detail while some are ignored.
I feel the best way to film is use a chronological order to show the characterization (not the story, as reverse screenplay can be used for the story). It is sometimes frustrating for an average viewer to sit through an entire episode staring at the past of a character.
