Nonureva Really Surprised!

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

rcisrc It's a great show, glad it exists! Total nerd dork love! And appreciate a little gay.

shawn-s-george I was excited to learn about this series. I'm a big fan of the series Black Mirror (which this show is frequently compared to), and I've been a follower of RocketJump since close to the very beginning. Plus with guests like Mark Hammill, Joel McHale, and Megan Mullally, I figured this would be an extremely fun watch.However, I'm really struggling to understand what they were trying to accomplish with this show. This show tries to be serious, emotional, and even scary at times. However, writing and acting have never been strong suits of RocketJump's material, and Dimension 404 is sadly just as bad in this area. The result is an extremely campy feel that doesn't fit the tone of the show. This is particularly painful in the more horror-oriented episodes "Cinethrax" and "Polybius". I didn't mind the campy feel of RocketJump's previous series "Video Game High School", because it matched the feel of teen drama series that it paid homage to, like Degrassi.With this being an anthology series, I wish I could recommend at least one episode to people to watch, but sadly, I can't. They're all pretty bad. Give this whole series a hard pass.

ekkotrakker This is a good show. Most of the negative reviews below clearly expected something different than what they got, and went in with those expectations rather than taking this show for what it is. The second you see the opening, you will have an indication of what you are about to get. The intro song is a sort of spoof of the Twilight Zone and Outer Limits openings, and that is exactly what you get when you watch the show. This isn't Black Mirror, or the Twilight Zone, or the Outer Limits. What it is is a much lighter, sort of goofy, almost satirical take on the genre that generated these shows. It is funny and not nearly as disturbing. If you never left the 90s and are still looking for that same dark, gritty episodic sci-fi that the Outer Limits did so well, then you are going to be disappointed. If you don't take yourself or your media quite so seriously and want something a little bit silly and fun that still feels strangely like the shows listed above, then this is for you. There are some downsides. Aspects of certain episodes seem dragged out. Montages and transitions often go on for far longer than they need to. The show was produced by a studio used to making 15 minute shorts and, at times, it shows. Overall, it is still a fun show to watch and the primary complaint, that it isn't enough like the source material that inspired it, seems to miss the point entirely. If you want to watch Black Mirror, go watch Black Mirror. Don't try to project your expectations for that show onto this one. But it you take Dimension 404 for what it is, you may just find that you enjoy it.

gluedtothetube I haven't watched the entire series yet, but I feel as though they were aiming for a campy and not too serious sci-fi series. It is remarkably similar to Black Mirror in the layout of the episodes and the theme of the show. In the episodes I watched at the time of this review, I got the feeling that it was a bit tongue in cheek. This sci-fi is definitely not the kind to give you genuine creeps.I don't think I would recommend this show to everyone. Because the episodes are all separate from each other, just pick whichever one looks the most interesting and if you want to see more? Go ahead.
