Playtest

Scary and tense. This episode becomes a nonstop rollar coaster half way through and it really unnerved me. The lead is so likable that the ending mindfuck hits really hard.

Easily my least fave episode (so far). For the first fifteen minutes, nothing makes sense and things just circumstantially happen to allow the story to move forward. It's a very interesting concept relating to both mind control and video games, but its execution is awful mainly because of how smugly self-aware Brooker's script is, and the main character is insufferable. A wasted opportunity.

Genuinely terrifying. I've found movies in this genre (The Game, Total Recall) to overstay their welcome, so it was nice to get a condensed version. The endings to most BM episodes are excessively cruel and this is no exception.

O que fazer quando uma realidade virtual vira um teste do mundo real? A internet pode parecer falsa, mas ela causa tanto impacto como o mundo de fora, nesse episódio de Black Mirror a discussão é feita sobre a colisão de duas realidades, será que o lado de lá te machuca? Ou será só o misto de fascínio e colisão?

This would've been so much better if the main character wasn't so insanely annoying.

One of the better episodes of the show. Which isn't much, but still.

I love the Total Recall vibe, this was pretty good.

I found this particular episode to be a bit lacking. It never felt scary to me and the themes of simulated reality and losing memory are par for the course when it comes to sci-fi. Playtest isn't bad, it just doesn't do anything new, anything interesting, or even anything all that well, just passable.

Wunmi Mosaku was nice. I also liked the most of the beginning and build the story, but the playtest itself was not that cool.
