The basis of good sci-fi is believability. I need to believe that what is happening -- though not currently achievable in our world -- is possible. This fails in that sense. I mean c'mon, really? The ability to block anyone at any time? Why would it benefit humanity? And if it hurts humanity, why was it implemented? What makes this a dystopia or a utopia? At least it was somewhat entertaining here or there.

haven't seen any black mirror so far, but luckily this seems unrelated enough to be enjoyed on its own. the style reminds a lot of those "tales from the crypt"-like episode movies, just that the horror is based in a much more authentic reality. speaking of which, the way the future is depicted here is sociocritical, devastatingly probable and well webbed into the plot progression. the latter sorta being the downside, too, because one could smell any "twist" from a mile away.

Just makes you want more Black Mirror series to come your way. The atmosphere, the pacing, the storytelling are all great like before. The setting is n0t as well laid-out as the previous ones and has some serious holes in it, but as a stand-alone story everything works out fine in the end. Jon Hamm particularly shone.

Although Black Mirror has raised the level of dystopian science fiction series to a very high standard, this episode is not very successful as its predecessors, because the writer/director quickly jumps on the very good idea (which I am not going to spoil by mentioning) and don't think much about its details and different social implications. Here, the story succeeds the idea and the atmosphere, which I think is other way around in previous episodes.

This became an instant classic for me simply because of the situation that the protagonists find themselves in when the episode ends. All that buildup for some of the more devastating payoffs I've seen in a while, that give me chills the more I think about them. The perfect gift for those who hate Christmas and/or humanity and/or everything.

It's the implications that hit you later, that's where the creepiness shines through. More please.

OH. MY. GOD. black mirror, what have you done to me!? this has to be the pinnacle of this show, in every sense of the word! everything that i've come to love about what this show is, and what it represents, is expressed in this episode, better than ever. not only is this one of the darkest, and most shocking episodes in the series, it is also one of the most human. the show has never been more balanced in this regard. one of the best exercises in storytelling and innovation i've ever seen.
