[TV Series] Mr. Robot (Season 1)

Mr. RobotA show about hackers made by people who actually know how to use a computer for a change. Unfortunately, it becomes a tad dull after its amazing pilot episode, as the plot starts moving in circles seemingly unable to decide what it wants to do with its characters.

Then all sorts of shit goes down in the last few episodes, and I still can’t decide if they shot themselves in the foot with all those suspension of disbelief breaking twists, or are they on the right track to make the following season an amazing roller coaster.

Well, at least I can certainly get behind the idea of the concept of corporations being the bane of mankind.

Positive: Negative:
Fascinating concept of hackers trying to fight the impersonal evil of society Characters other than the protagonist aren’t that interesting
Interesting, schizoid protagonist Seems not to go anywhere for the first couple of episodes
Based on actually legit computer knowledge Some of the twists near the end threaten to shatter the suspension of disbelief
Corporations are evil, good point
