A season of mind-boggling

The 6 stories of this season of "Black Mirror Season 4" are very exciting, let's talk about them separately:

1. The withdrawn programmer digitized his consciousness into the game he created by collecting the DNA of his colleagues and carried out his own tyranny in it. The digitized colleagues united to resist, destroying the consciousness of the programmer. ——Big brain hole/Restore the atmosphere of "Star Trek" in place/The plot and visual effects are great, and also let us see "If everyone can give a little love, the world will become a beautiful world" and so on. Pay attention to the social issues of caring for the lonely people around you, the pitiful things of hateful people.

2. Children's guardian product named "Ark Angel": Assist parents in parenting by giving parents super high permissions (GPS/vital sign monitoring/audio-visual monitoring, real-time mosaic processing of the content of the stimulus). But after parents have been given such great authority, too much control by parents is sometimes not a good recipe for children's growth. ——Interesting topic, the plot conflict is too strong but the meaning is conveyed, it is worth parents to think about what kind of education method is suitable.

3. Stories of continuing to make more mistakes in order to cover up one. ——Cold Nordic style, but there is a helpless crime story against a white background. The new "memory extractor" makes it even harder to destroy evidence. When I thought everything was over, I didn't expect the hamster's eyes to record everything. It's a beautiful closed-loop story. Jingmei, story-driven tension is full.

4. In the future, there will be a software to verify the matching degree of love between two people. - One sentence sums up the new stuff introduced in this episode, but this episode is all about the ability of the screenwriter to win! When we followed the male and female protagonists and accepted the lover arranged by the software to choose a date again and again, we were disappointed again and again and wondered how fate would love to make fun of people like this. The result of 1000 simulations is the match between the male and female protagonists in reality. The ingenuity of this screenwriter is very good, and the subject matter is also very relaxed. When I watched it at the time, I sent a circle of friends for this episode alone.

5. The way to survive in the post-apocalyptic era of black and white images under the pursuit of robot dogs. ——The story has no beginning and no end, and it is more of an attempt at video and tension-making techniques, a avant-garde short film-like feeling.

6. Introduce the three new gadgets, "Feeling Transmitter", "Thinking Register" and "Soul Entity Device", and tell the sad stories after these three gadgets respectively. - The setting of a "black museum" that houses exhibits of real crime objects is very attractive. All three stories are interesting, but the most interesting is that the last one includes a larger revenge story. , and organically integrates the essence of the first two stories, full of suspense and thriller, and it is very enjoyable to talk about it!

    The two episodes of Contrl Freak's mother and the electronic dating gun disguised as Jiayuan's virtual love test are quite boring. The electronic clone Star Trek is really the most interesting episode, and the black and white set of robot dogs gives people a PKD texture, which I like very much. But the Insurance Investigator episode, especially from eyewitness memory, shifts from one person to another, and is especially reminiscent of Blade Runner's (photo) mirror investigation - actually Scott's The studio has cooperated with Philip to shoot a series of short films called "Parallel Lines project", one of which recreates the story of "Blade Runner" "Investigation in the Mirror" - human eyes It's the window to the soul, right? It's also an investigation in the mirror, so I made up a story with a more Noir tone, which would probably be more interesting. The last episode of "Black Museum" has a Black Mirror universe, but the big boss of the salesman is really weak (in fact, shouldn't the big boss be designed as a Netflix dad).

    Since becoming an American drama, this drama has also gone down the altar! The six episodes of this season can give you the narrative pleasure that only the screenwriting skills can bring to you, and only the first episode has enough drama tension, and the second, third, and fifth episodes are almost impossible to see that this is "Black Mirror". At that time, the drama talked about the "side effects of technology". After watching it, it would make people think about it. For example, the prime minister's piggy back then, even the sixth episode of the finale is only at the level of the special Christmas episode of that year.
