1 NOT YOUR KIND OF PEOPLE
Hello Friend,
Hello Elliot,
Introducing the hoodie knight hacker Elliot Alderson, Mr. Robot gives us our very own anti-hero.
So, by taking down the financial forces that "control" the world, discover a raw look on our society.
The consequences of consumerism, freedom, technology but, above all, in a time when you can reach anybody across the world in seconds, we're more disconnected than ever.
Enjoy a masterful take on the flaws of our connections.
2 THE CORP EMPIRE
"Control is an illusion"
In addition, to the accurate portrait of society, Mr. Robot aims to show us the search for control of its habitants.
Who would thought that a show that disguises as a geeky-technical type could reveal great insights on the present world?
In fact, displaying the deeps of power, the web of geopolitics and just simply, the consequences of our digital revolution, Mr. Robot is a must if you want to expand your mind into reality.
3 DISCONNECTED ELLIOT
One of the many points of the greatness of Mr. Robot is found within the representation of mental illness.
And, by displaying a groundbreaking technical work (far ahead of the traditional TV) MR sinc us into Elliot's mind.
In fact, by breaking the fourth wall, you will become Elliot's imaginary friend.
So, prepare yourself to a trippy ride.
4 GIVE ME SOMETHING MASTER
Mr. Robot introduces you to the chess match between Control and Power.
A society of Elliots, Darlenes, Angelas, even Doms, as every citizen of this world aims to have the control of its goals, decisions, dreams.
But, in a Consumerism Paradise such as today, Control is an illusion.
MR shows us a society of consumers of new drugs shape as likes, retweets, apps, saves and favorites that fill the artificial feelings of the people.
Dictate by the hands of the owners of corporations, governments, and armies.
To sum up, give me a massive social network and we will control the world.
We warn you, you will open your eyes with MR.
5 CINEMATOGRAPHY PARADISO
Actually, the first thing you will notice with MR is its breathtaking cinematography.
So, not your typical show, we told you.
Stylish shots and, frames that enhance the disconnection of its characters + society, as well as, the clever use of darkness make worth the ride.
And, if you want a free lesson on filming, take a shot on the style of Sam Esmail's Mr. Robot.
BTW, crisp hack sequences and opening titles.
(Psst… a masterpiece, get on it).
6 THE SOUNDS OF HACKING
Ok, we got the likable character, the plot (become a hacker, save the world, down with savage capitalism (?)), gorgeous shots and camera work.
However, what is missing?
Well, the on-point sound edition.
And, MR keeps on it with an engaging soundtrack by Mac Quayle (Great for your computers gigs).
In short, awesome song choices and ambient music make a delightful combination also.
7 F SOCIETY
At the pair with the outstanding work behind scenes, the performances of the characters on MR will hook you right away.
In other words, relatable, honest and raw, the cast on MR masterfully show us the truth about the players of this board for power.
With brilliant "villans" such as Phillip, Tyrell and the enigmatic Whiterose, Esmail expands his vision on the system behind the curtains.
In short, is you want to be immersed in a clever but raw portrait of our society, our fight for control and the power of the tech revolution in candy to the eyes way, then is a show worth watching.
