The three episodes of Black Mirror are more like a propositional homework. The proposition is strong enough to support this sufficiently excellent mini-series. The black mirror is an extension of the cruel side of technological development. It is a naked innuendo of reality. It is a dark enough inner world for everyone. It is also a wall that cannot be penetrated, just like everyone's glass room in EP2. In reality, we endure it. What is pervasive electromagnetic radiation, overwhelming advertising, vulgar entertainment and fake news have nowhere to hide. We use the Internet and information to use attention and virtual social chats to masturbate. We can't open the door and can't see the real world outside. Each of us is trapped in a black mirror to help complete a great performance art.
ep1 National Anthem: The most breathtaking, most realistic and most distorted episode. Until the end, I still don’t think the Prime Minister will go to the sow of F. I think this episode is the best, fortunately the director Telling a story that is difficult to convincing is vivid and vivid, rendering a dream-like depressive atmosphere. If 2 and 3 are pessimistic predictions about the development of science and technology, then this episode is a true portrayal of our current lives and is very close to us. The emergence of the media brings us convenience and information, but also brings us a kind of inherent barbaric temperament, this temperament is group violence, cold-eyed, and a member of the mob. Who is leading this farce is the deceptive orientation of the media, the online news media lacking professional ethics, it is you and me. Many people are saying that the prime minister is a victim of imperial power. In my opinion, politicians have always been a symbol of despicableness. After the emergence of severed fingers, the prime minister is more like a victim of the hormones of the national group. It is a democracy that is often reduced to the laughing stock of an autocratic regime. A victim of the regime.
ep2: The value of 15 million miles: The most pessimistic episode. Like every dark science fiction story, no one can go out in the end. Even if there are revolutionaries and heroes in this world, they will eventually become dark. A victim of the rules, it reminds me of a lot of movies, about technology, about civilization, about a small toy store. But the highlight of this episode does not lie in this. It is the essence of this episode that reflects on consumer culture, criticizes a society that is entertaining to death, returns to realism, and returns to caring for individual feelings.
ep3: Your entire history: "Full-spectrum memory, you can enjoy willow grain upgrades for less than a cup of coffee a day, and 30 years of free backup." Another example of the alienation of human relations caused by technology, in the film The so-called memory backup is another high-tech product that touches the moral forbidden zone. It brings us the so-called truth, a naked truth without norms. The danger of this truth is that the higher the level of technological development, the ugliness of human nature is also affected. Infinitely magnified, the so-called apocalyptic disaster is not a natural disaster, but a mass moral degeneration.

    British dramas with black humor are still not suitable for me, just as I often don't understand the horror of Miyato Kankuro.

    This British drama is so powerful. Every episode can make a major reversal of the psychological defenses of the people in the story, and slowly get along with the people in the story. Finally, I feel the sorrow of modern high-tech in my heart, especially the kidnapping case in the first episode. The irony method is too dark. It allows you to examine the various addictions that you and modern technology bring to you. In the end, it even satirizes you by the way, and you will slap your hands and marvel at it. Do you dare to say that you didn't want to see the Prime Minister fucking pig? ★★★★★
