The short review is not enough, I leave my respect for this drama

The first episode, it's great for me to go, this kind of movie where the hero defeats the evil villain is always so exciting.

Two small flaws: the female protagonist in real life cannot easily sneak into the male protagonist's house to complete all operations; since the male protagonist is God in the game, it is impossible to control the female protagonist's spaceship.

It's still a good action movie, but it has little to do with the theme of "technology and human nature".

In the second episode, parents who are extremely controlling are really scary and disgusting. A person who is blocked from bloody violence means that he cannot avoid bloody violence, and he will inevitably be swallowed by negative things.

In the end, I felt sorry for the mother.

This episode perfectly shows the future "technology and human nature", very black mirror, absolutely five-star.

Episode 3, and the best thing about this episode is that it creates a very reasonable profession, an accident insurance investigator with a device that can record memories, under the premise of legality. This one is not high-tech, no explosion, but I think it's a great idea that fits perfectly into a high-tech society.

As far as the story is concerned, in order to cover up a mistake, and thus kill one person after another, it is good-looking but not too new. For example, "The Tuner" watched in Chengdu in 2019 is also a similar story. The last baby boy is blind. It was deliberately abusing the heart. In the end, it was very cool to use a hamster to do the reversal. Overall, it was four stars.

Episode 4, a perfect response to "Technology and Humanity"!

"One-way viewing causes time to be recalibrated" is also a great setting, because one-way viewing of time means one person doesn't want to see it and the other does, meaning the two have an idea of ​​how much time they spend together. Divergence, so the shortened time makes perfect sense.

The finale is also great! I thought the male protagonist and the female protagonist were arguing about the principle of system matching, and the screenwriter explained the principle of the system through the mouth of the male protagonist. It turns out that the screenwriter is even better! From the beginning to the end is just a test, the hero and heroine meet for the first time at the end, and the ending is great! Five-star praise! Episode 5, I just want to give full marks to the opening lines

"Pig's eyes and assholes are at the same height. Pigs run around staring at other people's assholes all day long. What kind of society is this?"

"Equal society?" In the end, it was revealed that the supplies that the three people risked their lives to bring back were just dolls, symbolizing hope. It's not hard to guess. , but the flaws are not concealed, and it is still five-star praise! In the sixth episode, the tone, language, expression, and rhythm of the curator's storytelling are obviously a master of storytelling, and it is worth learning. The curator's lines are also very interesting.

The technology in the first story is the pain sensor, the neglected human nature is the problem caused by synaesthesia,

"but?"

"what?"

"Dawson had a great time, but...there's sure to be a but"

"But, blabla"

interesting. In the second story, technology is used to convey that the vegetative wife realizes that in her husband's brain, the neglected human nature is that symbiosis will inevitably bring problems

The third story, deliberately torturing black people, eventually evoked the heroine's revenge.

The sixth episode contains a lot of easter eggs from the previous seasons and episodes, and at the same time perfectly fits the theme of technology and human nature.
