Humans

CriticsCritics: 85
AudienceAudience: 7.8

In a parallel present, lifelike robotic servants have become essential household technology for busy families. When one family brings home a new Synth, their lives become entangled with wider questions about dependence, identity, autonomy, morality, and how society should treat beings that appear increasingly human.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy dark, thoughtful science fiction about artificial intelligence, morality, and social change, especially in the vein of Black Mirror; Not for you if you want nonstop action or simple answers.
