The first story reminded me of ´Tales from the crypt´: very dark, a bit exagerated in the end, but true about how far human nature can get. The second story was funnier. The third was a bit too short in my opinion. The final is excellent. Overall, I did find some inconsistencies but since it is Sci Fi, the realism doesn´t have to be present on all scenes.General note for this season: I found it overall of less quality than the others. So I hope Charlie Broker gets back to the quality I found in the very first episodes that were really focused on the limits of the technology and how it can harm human nature.

While driving to celebrate her father´s birthday, Nish stops at a lonely station to recharge the batteries of her car and walks to the criminal Dark Museum before the opening hour. However the owner Rolo Haynes admits Nish and tells the dark story related to each object. The air conditioning is out of work and Haynes drinks a bottle of water provided by Nish. Soon he learns who she is and what he agenda is. "Dark Museum" is a dark tale and one of the best episodes of "Black Mirror". Each segment is attractive but the lead story is very creepy and the conclusion surprises the viewer. My vote is nine.Title (Brazil): "Dark Museum"

It's normal to let go... of your own insecurities and dreams.On a perfectly normal day, we would expect a sunny sky... maybe a drizzle for a couple of minutes. But is it fair to assume that it should or must happen?.. or to be absolutely sure that the causality principle would not stop showing?..Well, this episode of Black Mirror really touches the sore spot in all, with respect to the technological devolution and to the humane ups and downs; especially taking into account the brilliant acting by Mr. Douglas Hodge as the fun loving, edgy and even crazy character of Rolo Haynes, and the use of editing both the scenes and the music into an integrated, easily watchable blend of stories, that is the best of this season.The transfer of the mind and consciousness - which might be the substance called 'soul' by generations of people on Earth - to an inanimate objects as well as another body may seem radical or impossible to some. But it certainly shows that we cannot escape our roots and archetypal pursuits... and the science cannot keep up with all as whatever cannot be falsified can be true. So psychological, and so true.Let us not forget about the lowest of the low in humans... We love and we kill almost simultaneously in our little minds. (Okay, I did go too far. But this is needed for dramatic reasons in my review.) Hence, we de-appraciate the dark sides of this episode. We need this kind of selfish, antisocial, wild and woolly way of life / technology not!.. Yes. Sadly.Thank you, Mr. Penn Jillette. (Oh, no!.. Gratitude abort!.. We can lead to goodness by writing about those that are heavenly, too. I hope.)Here is a Verse of my culture:"(He) Who hath created life and death that He may try you (as to) which of you is best in conduct; and He is the All-Mighty, the Oft-Forgiving,"The 2nd Verse of the 67th Chapter called 'The Sovereignty' in the Gracious Koran.
