With Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, as much as you are watching the show, you are also playing it. And then, you realise, the show is also playing you at the same time.

In the world of Black Mirror, we're all pawns of Charlie Brooker, falsely made to believe that life has meaning and happiness (in case you haven't yet noticed) is often an unattainable fantasy.

It's like nothing I've ever experienced in a movie, a TV show, on Netflix, or anything else. The user experience is flawless, with viewers making decisions in real time with the story remaining uninterrupted.

Absolutely amazing concept and immersive storytelling experience. Deep slow burn story.. Trying to play through all scenarios to see how tiny decisions (what to have breakfast, what music to listen for inspiration) to much heavier ones that carry massively weighty consequences. Brilliantly executed and masterfully written. Love the acting and the characters are very memorable. You need to really dedicate yourself to the choices you make. Colin is so smooth. When it comes to a concept piece, a bit of madness is all you need. Highly recommended.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Where I saw it, there were no viewers choices. It was just a 5+ hour movie that felt like Groundhog Day, with none of the humor. It took me 3 days to get through it, because I kept falling asleep on it. Maybe it would've been a better experience if I had seen it the way Netflix intended - with the viewer allowed to choose how the story goes. It couldn't possibly be worse than the way I experienced it. I never want to see it again. I wish I could erase it from my mind, altogether. I HATE it.

like 4.23 to all those people who hate it, you clearly either didn’t get far enough (I found the ending) or you weren’t open minded enough, or something else-

Interesante el concepto de poder armar la historia como se quisiera, sobre todo en el momento en que salió, pero ese fue su gran llamativo porque poco más para destacar.
