    The worst part of the "Black Mirror" series so far, the facts tell us that whether it is this interactive type of film, drama or book-including "Shuangfeng" and "S." have been interactive, you can own Participating in narratives and selecting books with different directions-none of them can cause any subversion. A good story, a good story determined by the author, is the eternal mainstream. I don't believe that such a gimmick will be effective. It can never be a video game, just like a video game can never be a movie.

    Basically the same reason I hate "interactive-drama" games, so one star here actually introduces the game scoring logic. But the most interesting thing about this "movie" is that the options are also purely false, and the choice cannot produce branches, which is a completely false orientation. What this "movie" wants to show is completely opposed by what it actually does. It can be considered confusing and even humorous.

Black Mirror: Bandersnatch quotes

  • Colin Ritman: There's messages in every game. Like Pac-Man. Do you know what "Pac" stands for? P-A-C: program and control. He's Program and Control Man. The whole thing's a metaphor. He thinks he's got free will, but really he's trapped in a maze, in a system. All he can do is consume, he's pursued by demons that are probably just in his own head and even if he does manage to escape by slipping out one side of the maze, what happens? He comes right back in the other side. People think it's a happy game. It's not a happy game, it's a fucking nightmare world and the worst thing is, it's real and we live in it. It's all code. If you listen closely, you can hear the numbers. There's a cosmic flowchart that dictates where you can and where you can't go. I've given you the knowledge. I've set you free. Do you understand?

  • Dr. Haynes: The past is immutable, Stefan. No matter how painful it is, we can't change things. We can't choose differently with hindsight. We all have to learn to accept that.
