Issa Rae's recent performance in the latest season of Netflix's "Black Mirror" has sparked a wave of criticism online. Despite being an acclaimed figure for her past works, viewers have expressed disappointment in her portrayal of a modern-day actress transported to a 1940s film through AI. Comments point out that Rae seemed to be playing herself rather than the character and many feel she lacks the depth needed for such a role. Supporters acknowledge her talent as a writer but suggest she may be better suited behind the camera.
I know it's unpopular, I know people love Issa Rae. She's done some good work in the past but with this plot, with this storyline—I feel like she just didn't fit the role.
This episode made me realize Issa just isn't that good of an actress which is so hard for me to admit.
