Black Mirror episode 1 spoiler-free review
Charlie Brooker offers a searing, look at modern society in a three-part drama series, Black Mirror. It doesn't always make for easy or cheerful viewing, but then again, we wouldn't expect anything less from a mind as creatively acerbic as Brooker's.
Ryan Lambie, Den Of Geek, 25th November 2011Charlie Brooker's 'Black Mirror' preview
Overall The National Anthem kept us second-guessing, delivering several well thought out twists with some fantastic performances. However, we can't help but feel that the strength of the message would've been a lot more powerful had the threat been less comical, though that isn't really Brooker's style, and that's why we love him.
