Love, death + robot season 4 Review: scary, silly and surreal

One of the most entertaining episodes of the season is the really rude Red Hot Chili Pepper star “Can't Stop”. This episode does not only return to the direction of David Fincher Love, death + robotBut through the path of his original love: music videos. “Can't Stop” looks incredible and turns to an effective marionet aesthetics that is different from everything that was previously in the anthology series. “Can't stop” will ultimately ask the audience, not whether Fincher could Do that, but why he wants. It is such a gonzo experiment that is also the perfect showpiece for why a series likes Love, death + robot is necessary. You won't record a piece of stories so much Black mirror.

There is such a ridiculous, nonsensical energy that rules this short film, but it is also undeniable entertaining and such a funny time. The reason why a series likes Love, death + robot Work is that there is space for “Can't Stop” in addition to dark, dramatic showpieces and action glasses such as “Spider Rose” and “400 boys”. Nothing is not limited in this series – and this season even includes dinosaurs – and this freedom leads to remarkable stories that are worth the great fluctuations that are taken, even if they do not work. “Can't Stop” is only five stupid minutes who are not afraid to become strange and spoil themselves in Vibes. It also does not hurt that David Fincher is behind this episode, but every chaotic mixed-mash music video of this kind will still stand out in a series that refers to JG Ballard and Harlan Ellison as MTV.

Love, death + robot Is a satisfactory research into science fiction, but it is also a series that is proud in its groundbreaking pictures. Every season of Love, death + robot Was visually magnificent, although these new episodes were no exception. Love, death + robot Seems to be the proudest of his lavish, photo -realistic segments, like the work that Blur Studio does in “Spider Rose”. But these segments do not disappoint, but Love, death + robot Has the most fun when it is ready to treat more ambitious and stylized pictures.

The latter of them accepts a really impressionistic visual style that is reminiscent of The big Os Art Deco quality. This adds the supernatural story to be told in a hyperbolized universe in which gang war and a strictly Bushido-like code are the norm. Fractions fight with psychological, electrical forces in a world that feels torn out of a Stephen King story. “400 boys” is visually rich, but the art style is also thematic with the deeper message of history. It goes into the city with its exaggerated aesthetics and creates some really beautiful pictures and landscapes in this broken world. The post -apocalyptic wasteland that makes it is how The warriors hits Mad Max hits Escape from New York. The destruction takes place in such a massive selection that looks like beautiful spray panels from a comic. There are sets in which Warriors roller blade under the legs of huge babies that they hack into pieces that feel inspired by Attack on Titans Epic battles. It is the exact opposite style of the happy gladiatorial fight that is treated in “The Screaming of the Tyrannosaurs” like entertainment.

Love, death + robot Triumph with his fourth season, which prove that this tank still contains a lot of gas. If any, Love, death + robot is ready to become even stranger and break some of his older rules for fresh storytelling. There are only a few misfires in this season of 10 episodes, although some are certainly harder than others. It is estimated to get so many episodes and that Volume 4 is longer than the two previous seasons. However, it seems less and less likely that it will return to the cornucopia of the content that was the 18 episode band 1. It can also be seen that the graphic this season, although it is flawless, only gives two animation studios outside of the United States. Love, death + robot ' AIM has never been special to emphasize the international animation. Apart from that, Love, death + robot It is best when each of his rates has a really versatile style.

Love, death + robot Has another victory with volume 4 and hopefully there is more surreal science fiction stories. The season begins with the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Anthony Kiedis, who sings “Can't Stop”, and at the end of these 10 episodes that they have left, in the hope that the mantra will also apply Love, death + robot.
