Young, anti-social computer programmer Elliot works as a cybersecurity engineer during the day, but at night he is a vigilante hacker. He is recruited by the mysterious leader of an underground group of hackers to join their organization. Elliot's task? Help bring down corporate America, including the company he is paid to protect, which presents him with a moral dilemma. Although he works for a corporation, his personal beliefs make it hard to resist the urge to take down the heads of multinational companies that he believes are running -- and ruining -- the world.

Mr Robot has the smarts and the smooth control to start carefully parsing the relationship between Elliot's alienation and his desire to "change the world." Go to Full Review Wenlei Ma Empire Magazine Australasia Jul 14, 2016
It's an incredibly cynical view of the world but it may be one of the most realistic depictions of our existence, even if it's the parts most of us never see. Go to Full Review Eric Deggans NPR Jul 14, 2016
Esmail is pulling a Fargo instead of a True Detective, taking his show into surprising new directions while holding onto some of the stuff that made us love it in the first place. Go to Full Review Nathan Mattise Ars Technica Jul 27, 2021
S1's kinetic plot was impossible to replicate, but S2 has done a lot of good. Go to Full Review Akhil Arora Gadgets360 Aug 28, 2018
Speaking of what makes the show, it still carries the cultural markers, Internet Age jibes, and background score peculiarities that made it a breakout hit last summer. Go to Full Review Adam Epstein Quartz Aug 27, 2018

tm11999 M @tm11999 Sep 22, 2026 this crapest is all over the place, elliot is an imbecile, the imaginary robot guy ain't real and nobody can catch him, ever. dumb. See more lam Y @RT30687921 Apr 26, 2026 Sombre. Épsiode 7 favori See more P K @RT09690541 Apr 16, 2026 Season 2 is slower and more confusing, but in a very intentional way. It feels like being stuck inside Elliot’s mind. There’s more silence, more paranoia, more loneliness. The pacing almost forces you to sit with the discomfort, and at times it even makes you question if anything is actually moving forward. It’s not as straightforward as the first season, but emotionally it goes deeper. You start to feel how heavy everything is, how the consequences of trying to fight the system aren’t heroic at all, they’re messy, isolating, and exhausting. There’s no sense of victory, only confusion and emotional weight. The world doesn’t suddenly change just because someone tried to break it. What makes this season powerful is how uncomfortable it is. The silence feels loud, the paranoia feels suffocating, and the loneliness is almost painful to watch. It’s like watching someone slowly drift further away, not just from society but from themselves. See more p b @RT47219484 Nov 21, 2025 Loved season 1 but season 2 so far is boring and uneven. I saw reviews saying season 2 sucked but season 3 and 4 were good. I’ll try and slog through this season one at a time. Can’t binge this train wreck season. See more Brandon K @TheKeizer May 11, 2025 A great continuation of the plot of the first season, showcasing the real fallout and damage that was done instead of a happy ending for the country. See more Phillip D @phildub Mar 11, 2025 Top of the line show. Might be my favorite of all time. See more Read all reviews
