"Black Mirror" Hotel Reverie (TV Episode 2025) ⭐ 6.7 | Crime, Drama, Mystery
April 10, 2025 - It felt like she had never acted before, and her performance was so unconvincing that it completely took me out of the story. I was left wondering if she had any prior acting experience because it certainly didn't seem like it. Given the high standards set by previous Black Mirror episodes, especially in season 7, I expected much better casting choices.

'Black Mirror' Season 7, Episode 3 “Hotel Reverie” Ending, Explained
April 25, 2025 - As a heartbroken Brandy celebrates the popularity of her Hotel Reverie Reborn, she receives a gift from Kimmy and the ReDream team—a phone with a connection to Dorothy’s old screen test, now reprogrammed into a chat-ready AI. Brandy picks up, and Dorothy says she has “all the time in the world” to talk. It should be a happy reunion, but it’s not. This Dorothy doesn’t remember Brandy, because she doesn’t exist. Womp womp. It was high-time Black Mirror tackled the ethics of digital resurrection, and with Issa Rae and Emma Corrin at the helm, it couldn't have been better.

r/blackmirror on Reddit: Hotel Reverie is my favorite of Season 7
4 weeks ago -

I'm usually a bit apprehensive because bi characters in shows and movies tend to be very stereotypical and annoyingly written, but here I think the relationship between these characters was very engaging and well done. Also, Issa Rae and Emma Corrin are awesome in it. I was at first a bit wary from the "female remake" part of the plot, but it ended up becoming something quite a bit more interesting.
