Hotel Reverie Ratings & Reviews
- Pyutaros1d agoIt's rare that I can describe a Black Mirror episode with words other than terrifying, disturbing, or depressing, and normally that's what I'm here to see, but this episode was beautiful, heartwarming, and timeless. Absolute peak storytelling.
- Robert OHaraApril 16, 2025Issa Rae looks like a Thunderbirds puppet and acts like one too.
- jamoke82April 19, 2025That was boring and a little rough. I didn't get any real emotion from the lead.
- bobechiMay 21, 2025Issa Rae 💕 Emma Corrin
- aessam6May 20, 2025What's this shit? This ain't black mirror
- Michael MorelliMay 10, 2025Solid episode with a fresh take on an old narrative.
- flatnackerMay 7, 2025This is the result of DEI creeping into Black Mirror. Black lead. Tick. Boss girls. Tick. Alphabet community. Tick. Stick to telling good stories rather than trying to spread the woke gospel.
- Scott PhelpsApril 13, 2025A fantastic performance from Emma Carrin is the saving grace of another episode of Black Mirror that falls far from the heights of it's earlier years. An episode akin to the progression of an AI inspired relationship seen in San Junipero (sharing similar homosexual romantic themes) unfortunately fails to expand what could be a really connecting episode for the audience to it's "AI movie" characters. ***Spoiler*** I feel disappointed this episode didn't dive further into the torment and ultimate cause of suicide for Dorothy; her repression of homosexual romantic feelings in an era where it were taboo. Instead, it was briefly shown to the audience in a gimmicky montage and then eradicated once "connection" to the outside studio servers was established again by a simple "reboot". Expansion once the forth wall acknowledgement from Dorothy of living within a movie yet still being in love with Brandy would have allowed an audience to connect with the heartbreak further along the line. Empathising with how Dorothy was born an era too soon to allow her to be "truly" herself with her sexuality (reflecting on the other movie characters having simply no problem with Brandy's character being a "black woman" nor a female love interest - something that our modern society has accepted). How the studio employees reached such sadness to cry at the final retold scene and death of Clara is beyond me and frankly absurd. Their feed to the continuous "second life" and romantic bond that Dorothy and Brandy had was cut, they couldn't observe it. If anything they should have all felt relief at Brandy delivering her final line, allowing them to bring her consciousness back safely and a disconnect between themselves and Brandy on her return - as none of them understand why she was distraught clutching at a deceased Clara.
- KainApril 19, 2025idk bout you guys but i thought this might be the shows worse episode
- shirazesatMay 1, 2025I definitely fit the criteria of "not a dry eye in the house"
- cultfilmlikerApril 13, 2025Damn, strong cast out the gate! Very unique and emotional! And some decent laughs! Kinda wish it had ended on the darker note tho SPOILER ALERT ⬇️⬇️⬇️ Real Rick and Morty “🎶 It’s in the way that you use it! 🎶” vibes when it resets
- gamegye8April 28, 2025I’m not understanding the hate for this one, solid episode with some weak points.
