It seems to have become a "habit" to use Black Mirror at the end of the year. Even after changing to Netflix, the Black Mirror has changed a bit, but this year, it will no longer put multiple different propositions at a time, and will no longer serve the full banquet. Netflix will be at the end of 2019. , spent 5 hours and 12 minutes leading the audience to focus on solving a problem, but it gave me goosebumps.
The male protagonist is a 19-year-old genius boy with "psychological problems". He is obsessed with "Bandersnatch", a book that creates an interactive reading experience, and has developed a game based on it, and has also received strong support from game software companies. , but as the development progressed, as he became more and more immersed in the logic behind the game, he began to question whether he could control his life and whether he had free will.
Through interactive viewing, the film explores the time points and choices of life. But this time, it's not the protagonist who chooses, but you, you who are watching, this strange young man, can live or die, can be farce or thriller, the choice is yours.
The movie first tells you that people think that there is only one reality, but in fact, every choice will lead to a different life and a different ending. We can actually change it through flashbacks.
A protagonist who is not satisfied with the end of his life, and who is unwilling to choose to try again. He wants to change the time when his mother died because of his delay. He also wants to change the evaluation of his game by game reviewers. He also wants to change the ending of himself and his father. If the world usually exists, why can't he do it again and get better life?
The author of the book "Bandersnatch" was also in this kind of questioning and had mental problems. He chopped off his wife's head, but completed this amazing book. When the protagonist in the film plays a documentary about the author, he suddenly realizes that he is falling into the same mental trap.
Do you think that's the problem with this film? Having watched a lot of films discussing life choices, "Black Mirror Bandersnatch" surprised me because it gave the audience a kind of spiral thinking. Just when we thought the whole movie was choice-wrong/right, it played again through the protagonist:
The audience thought it was their own choice, but in fact they also fell into the trap of the screenwriter and director.
Do more options exist? The protagonist wants to get the rabbit back, so as not to delay the mother's time and let her get on the derailed train, but at this critical time, most of the time there is only one choice:
Both the audience and the protagonist can only choose "No". The protagonist's mental problems also started at this time and affected his life for more than ten years. He was trapped at this time, and the development of the "Bandersnatch" game may also be because of this time. The guilt and self-blame made him deeply trapped. Is there another possible fantasy in life.
The truth is that there are no so-called many choices at all. Even if there are parallel worlds, we are creatures who can only live on one timeline. To die is to return to nothing, and we cannot start over again.
A better life does exist, but we are creatures who can only live in the moment.
Interactive viewing has always attracted me since "Detroit Become Human" watched by more than 9 million people at station B. This is a groundbreaking game. The UP master recorded his own selection process in the game. Because of the real multi-line plot and the human nature involved, millions of people watched it.

The protagonist makes different choices under human manipulation, resulting in different life endings, and that feeling terrifies me.
From the perspective of God, watching other people's lives, those small things to eat and listen to music can still make people calm, but once you realize in the later plot, you have made a change in the direction of your life without knowing it. When I asked the multiple-choice question, a sense of desolation came on my face. At that point in time, why did people make such a choice, what is right and what is wrong, can I still have a better me?
We who are deep in the hole, at that critical moment, the moment when our life changes, still ignorantly think that we can control our own life, and we don’t know anything about the impact of our choices.
The real question is: Do we have free will? Who influences us and why we choose, the answers seem to follow, but also seem to have a thousand threads.
I think most of them, like the protagonists, questioned their choices, wondered whether they could have a better life, and envied those who always made perfect decisions. The butterfly effect is really big.
Screenshots of the 30 multiple-choice questions that the protagonist of "Black Mirror Bandersnatch" did. These 30 time points gave him 5 different life endings. Review these multiple-choice questions. If you are the protagonist, you What will you choose?
Some Easter eggs, welcome to add;
1. The cover of this game is a mechanical body (metal head) in the "Metal Head" of "Season 4, Episode 5" that chases and kills humans indiscriminately.
2. The logo that also appeared in "Black Mirror" "White Bear Park".
