Be Right Back Ratings & Reviews
Slashfilm
Jacob Hall
"Be Right Back" is a fable about letting go, about how the healing process can only be complete when you have moved on. But its great power is that genre twist...
Esquire Magazine
Corey Atad
Things get more and more disturbingly real from there, but at its core, "Be Right Back" is about the unbelievable pain of loss, and the difficulty of trying to hold onto a loved one who has passed. It's the ultimate Black Mirror episode.
Grantland
Emily Yoshida
One of the interesting things about this episode is that it shows us a character meeting a technology for the first time, rather than one who has been living with it for a while.
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Sameer Rahim
The latest episode of Black Mirror, Be Right Back, is both a haunting vision of the future, and of what our relationship with technology could become.
Entertainment Weekly
James Hibberd
This is a moving exploration of grief and the drama's most emotional hour.
Collider
Aubrey Page
"Be Right Back" combines all the best bits of a Black Mirror episode: a crushingly human storyline, seamlessly integrated technology and some masterful construction in a haunting soundtrack and brilliant pacing...
Metro (UK)
Keith Watson
There was a lesson to be learned here about moving on and not hanging on to the past -- and what we share of ourselves online -- but it got buried under one far-fetched twist too many.
What Culture
Connor Macgregor
The Cinematography is perfect for the mood of the writing as is the sound design and editing. These elements add to the cold lonely world that Martha is slowly but unknowingly devising around her.
Digital Spy
Morgan Jeffery
Black Mirror's series two premiere is creepy and moving in equal measure. It has real heart and characters that live and breathe -- even when they don't.
Den of Geek
Alec Bojalad
Be Right Back is the best episode of Black Mirror because it never loses sight of its humanity.
AV Club
David Sims
Be Right Back is a much quieter episode than its forebears. The social satire is barely present. The technology is terrifyingly close to real, but it never runs amok
El Pais (Spain)
Eneko Ruiz Jimenez
"Be Right Back" is one of those Black Mirror episodes that has it all: a message about technology, a pure science fiction story and also a lot of soul and feeling. [Full Review in Spanish]
The Ringer
Kate Knibbs
This being a Black Mirror episode, happiness does not ensue. But a devastating meditation on loss definitely does.
