S3E04

The increasingly warm Black Mirror.

This episode turned out to be a science fiction fairy tale, and it was too warm.

If there is really a place like this, how wonderful life would be. Even if life is not satisfactory, there is still a chance for you to start over after you get old. At the end, when the stars shined, I was very moved. The existence of life is only the existence of consciousness, and the annihilation of the body is nothing...

In fact, about immortality and reality, about fantasy and existence, this series can discuss some issues about life in the indulgent life of the "Swampland" group, but the director does not. Just grasping this point about homosexuality and slowly unfolding, tenderness and indifference, neither profound nor black, lacking the irony and powerfulness of Black Mirror as always.

    Looking at this subject matter a few years later, it really feels a bit hypocritical. Human beings are not that stupid yet.

    Lacie: I'm so sorry.

    Truck Driver: You don't know me, so you're not really sorry. You're just mainly awkward 'cause I have sprung some cancer talk at you.
