This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Holy shit this episode really fucked me up, just when I thought it couldn’t worse, it did ! I didn’t fear the government but now I do, also these women’s accents oh god please can everyone talk like that, still can’t believe just how many people died, this was an interesting look at cancel culture and it’s effects on everyone, humans can be cruel y’all, also bees going excited ? also really loved how badass detectives they were, that safe house scene messed me up because can you imagine, anyway this episode left me with a newfound fear for government surveillance, social media and the future of the bees, and crazy white men as usual

SAVE THE (REAL) BEES
Review by Reece Roberts ★★★½

Remind me never to use a Hashtag again?
Damn. It's a little predictable with the set up of the story.
You can kind of figure where it's going to go with the first act.
It was entertaining and the exploration of drone technology is kinda terrifying.
But still feels formulaic to me thou as a detective story.
Review by marinitim ★★★

Pretty interesting episode but I felt like it was too long and not an engaging enough story to keep my totally into it by the end
Review by Nate Hartley ★★★½

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Far from the best Black Mirror episode, but I really liked the way it went-the discovery that it involved the bees (my wife saw it coming), the realisation of the hashtag's significance, the bigger plot twist near the end (I saw it coming) and then the reveal right at the end (I also saw it coming). A lot of movement into the storyline and although I like to be totally shocked and perplexed, it's also sometimes nice to be ahead of the game, especially when it fits into the characters' beliefs and desires. A lot of it wasn't hidden from us, it just needed revealing.

Unfortunately, a lot of the script felt forced to fit into the story. I especially…
