Mr Robot is a smart new show about hackers looking for a revolution. This cyber crime drama displays an accurate portrayal of technology and hacking, which is a refreshing change from the usual “type faster to hack faster” crap you see on TV. The most interesting part of the series is the socially awkward main character Elliot Anderson perfectly played by Rami Malek.
Elliot is a person who cannot form bonds with others, so he ‘hacks’ them to feel connected. With a Case full of CD’s of people he has hacked, Elliot lives in his own reality, with his own code of morals and own ideas of revolution. Elliot joins a team of hackers to bring down E(vil) Corp and the 1% of the 1% and restructure the economy.
The show has perfectly casted Rami Malek and would not have worked without him. With season 1 just concluded, watch Mr Robot if you haven’t started already, to find out what is FSociety and what is Evil Corp.
