Featured review
Sigh...
Terrible pacing, terrible directing, terrible plot direction, holy crap I could go on.
I'm usually in support of The Walking Dead, I don't think I've outright hated any episodes up to this point. I would read other peoples reviews on episodes saying, "TWD has lost its way and is now a mess" and I would honestly just shrug it off, I was still enjoying the episodes, even the weaker ones.
But this episode is an honest spit to the face to anyone who was still holding on the ride that is The Walking Dead. It has one of the most mind numbing plots I've seen from a TV show.
The particular scene that made me have this epiphany was when Carl had just stopped speaking with Negan and began to limp around the fields of Alexandria throwing smoke bombs. Why was he limping? Who knows. From the looks of it, he jumped off the ladder a little too high and sprained his ankle. Looks like the characters are losing brain cells just as much as us viewers. Carl then limps VERY SLOWLY without any urgency to... To well.. I guess the show didn't explain what he was doing either. Isn't there grenades being blown up all around you Carl? Aren't the Saviors about to ram down the walls to come kill you? Why are you moving so slowly?
However a particular scene that followed really did put it bluntly on where the creative juices are flowing. Carl decides he wants to take a break from limping to safety and takes a breather against a house (yeah I have no idea either); and as if it was coordinated my Michael Bay a large bass sound begins to ramp up in the background. Carl, who seemed to have heard it as well, then begins to immediately sprint away from the house as it explodes in the background.
Sigh..
And don't even get me started on the stupid extreme close up compilation of the characters faces.
It's so lazy. There's no creative spark in these episodes anymore. It's muddled mess of cliché idea's stitched together to create the absolutely horrid pacing that has been shown in this episode. Right now I'm trying to work out why this episode exists, what it aims to serve in the long run, because I have no idea what this plot is building into anymore and it just seems to be finding new ways to force plot ideas and create an everlasting show. It's like pulling candy taffy. The longer you pull, the thinner the substance, and TWD doesn't have much of it left.
