disappointing S4 sofar
24 November 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Mr Robot sofar was an exceptional show where reality and illusion were blended into a exciting confusing mix where it took time for the viewer to figure out what was real and what not.

S4 sofar is very disappointing. Too much over the top psychological bad guys that capture our hero's, too little illusion/confusion. It is pretty straight forward. But the final disappointment is when they beat Deus by the fact that all members all have all their money in one bank that can be stolen. Really?? These people don't own land, corporations, gold, art, do not spread their assets, etc etc? The bank does not intervene when there is a unannounced withdrawal of the total amounts? And on xmas eve they are are able to gather a crowd that want to see the members of deus?

No, this is way too simplistic.

It is still a show of the exception class, as is proven with the "stand-off" between Price and Zhang in this episode, which is amazing dialogue, setting and acting, but it is brought down by Elliot walking by when Price is shot, Zhang sees Elliot but does nothing, just drive away.

So the final closure/clue is disappointing.
