Netflix's Love, Death & Robots: All 18 Episodes, Ranked Worst To Best
11. Zima Blue
The renowned artist Zima recounts his mysterious past and rise to fame before unveiling his final work.
Zima Blue’s animation is angular, sharp, and, you guessed it, colourful (mostly blues). The story is one of the most encompassing and picturesque. Most plots in the series are stimulating or thought-provoking, but Zima Blue’s is rather passionate and soothing.
The director wasn’t trying to impress with animation or shock with nudity or violence. No language, no gore, no sex; Zima Blue awes with a story that is akin to Bradbury or Dick.
It may feel a bit underwhelming when in the midst of binging all the other episodes, but it’s a welcome change of pace to lower the heart-rate. Zima Blue is beautiful, just not very risky.
