Television Critic Netflix’s special episode of its Emmy-winning sci-fi anthology “Black Mirror” arrived Friday after some intriguing teasing and lots of hype. No matter if you’re the main character of “Black Mirror: Bandersnatch” or the viewer/player, free will is an illusion in this technological nightmare of a drama where time is subjective and narratives overlap like a layers-thick dish of scalloped potatoes. Yes or No?” × Los Angeles Times television critic Lorraine Ali and music editor Todd Martens discuss the pros and cons of “Black Mirror: Bandersnatch.” That’s not to say Netflix’s pliable film is boring. And now Netflix knows there’s a PS4 player in your home, or another laptop, or iPad, exemplifying the “Black Mirror” series themes of intrusive, high-tech overload.
