Amazing like the first season. Very dark, except the last one which was very funny. Brilliant with fantastic acting, writing, cinematography across the board.

Amazing series fueled by development of modern society. Visions provided in this show are not so sci-fi when you think it through, let's just look at China... Some episodes are weaker than best ones, but I guarantee that you'll get hooked. Just skip the first episode if you can't stand itAmazing series fueled by development of modern society.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "Be Right Back": Um episódio triste que fala da dor de alguém que perdeu uma pessoa importante. Foi uma história encantadora e emocionante.

"White Bear": O episódio foi um dos mais impressionantes da série. Um excelente plot twist!

"The Waldo Moment": Que episódio fraquinho... Pelo menos, representou a realidade da política atual no mundo.

"White Christmas" (especial de Natal): Eu só estou triste por não ter reparado nas referências dos episódios anteriores. Sou capaz de ver outra vez...… Expand

Season two of Black mirror gives us three more stand alone episodes focusing on the potential/dangers of modern and future technologies and, aside from a slightly disappointing ending to one episode, is every bit as well written as the first season.

The episodes were not as good as some of the first season, but still they bring some moments. 'The Waldo Moment' is quiet average.

Analysis: A noticeable dip in quality from the first season, though generally creative, interesting, thought-provoking, and certainly worth tuning into. The ideas generally remain fresh and there are some great cold opens.

Be Right Back - 7/10
A disappointing and uncharacteristically weak episode. The premise is fine, possibly great, but the characters are somewhat unlikable. It creeps in quiet, unexpecting ways, but fails to deliver a real punch (despite trying).

White Bear - 8 - 8.5/10
An amazing start to the episode which leaves us just as confused as the protagonist. The little details along the way make sense in hindsight, but do a good job of not giving too much away, maybe leaving us a little confused, but certainly putting viewers in suspense. The episode wraps up a little messily but feels like a return to form.

The Waldo Moment - 7/10
An overall intriguing a well-conducted episode, though the premise, background, and general story is weak, in what ends up a considerably weaker "The National Anthem". It is essentially the same universe as the pilot, perhaps a sequel, with the public dumber as ever. Unfortunately, this one fails effective patience and character development that made an episode like "Fifteen Million Merits" great. It all unfolds rather fast and feels rushed, though maybe that's intentional.

White Christmas - 9/10
This one fires on all cylinders taking the best elements of previous episodes, tapping into the greatness of the first season, and producing very few flaws (if at all), which are well covered by the action. The episode kicks off by leaving us confused like "White Bear", but doesn't shy away from patience and a slow build-up. We're as clueless as the "protagonist" it seems, and the delivery of the final blow is brilliant and unsuspecting. This may be the series' first episode where there truly is no real protagonist, but, paired with the premise, and one character attempting to convince another that they are the protagonist, the audience, and this central character are effectively convinced as long as the episode needs. In the end, we, as well as the character can't help but seriously question ourselves, though the critical point of the episode is long past. Some details may be slightly murky or unnecessary along the way, but they are handled in humorous fashion.… Expand
