This mind playing movie has the audience involved as they go through life in the eyes of the main character as he tries to complete a new video game; however, his choices are being controlled which causes him to lash out. This movie is featured on Netflix and is produced by the makers from Black Mirror who are known to have mind blogging plots that relate to everyday life. What’s makes this movie so intricate from other movies is that the audience has to make the main character’s decisions in life and based off of those decisions the main character has to follow them no matter what. The audience is given two options and you’re given 10 seconds to respond, if not the movie will decide for you and continue on. As the movie goes on, the main character’s intuition has the feeling that his choices are being controlled and starts to go psychotic. Bandersnatch did an excellent job at executing the editing to this movie because they have the audience feeling like they are the ones editing the scenes to try to get the outcome they want. Throughout the movie, there are hints and characters that give the character some guidence and a reality check to what the “real world” is.
