A revolution is coming and he's the guy who can make it happen.
The new series "Mr. Robot" premiered Wednesday night and if I had one word to say about this series so far from the pilot is amazing!
Elliot, a young, smart computer programmer, who works as a security engineer. He may look a bit strange like if you can put the characters of Dr. Temperance Brennan and Sheldon Cooper together this is the character that you could think of when watching Elliot.
He has issues with socializing with people. He doesn't have family. But he does have some friends like Angela, his boss Gideon, his drug dealer and his therapist.
While he works as a security engineer for E Corp or Evil Corp. He becomes a hero by night by taking down pedophile at a coffee shop. He feels it's his job to protect people that is around him like his therapist, Krista.
Krista was dating a guy, Elliot tries to figure the guy out like who he is and such. Comes to find out that the guy is married and has seen seven different women.
He maybe smart, maybe a hero but not to mention that he could be crazy. Thinking that the men in black are following ( that could be true but it's from the Evil Corp).
When someone hacks into E Corp's computer system, Elliot tries to stop it and soon figures who it is. Turns out to be "Mr. Robot" (played by Christina Slater), who's tried to get his attention and bring him in to start a revolution that will help take down the Evil Corps that has made the world mad.
After his meeting with "Mr. Robot," he goes on with a mission to blame someone for the hacking. When a meeting with the CEO's, Angela was taken out of the meeting after a couple of mistakes. When Elliot didn't like that, he put the blame on to the CEO.
As soon as Elliot say it on the news, he runs out with joy but is stopped by the men in black. They take him to E. Corp's building where the new CEO Tyrell Wellick greets Elliot.
Overall this series was as I said before amazing but also it's so well written. Learning just enough of who Elliot is and what makes him so different to watch him. Rami Malek is outstanding in this role so far. I can't wait to see what comes next week.
By far this is Christian Stalter's best performance on television that I could remember and I've seen him in some bad shows. And thanks to USA Wednesday that his curse of one season only shows is over as the show got picked up for a second season.
Overall I give the pilot 9/10.
You can catch "Mr. Robot" Wednesday nights at 10/9c on USA Network.
