Film Critic, age 14<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Circuit Breakers <\/em>is a show that I would watch over and over again.

One of the story lines is about a dancer trying to get onto a dance team; another features a kid who is willing to do anything to get onto the track team.\u00a0 Most episodes revolve around a person trying to achieve a goal and using new, innovative technology to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Circuit Breakers <\/em>makes very fine use of advanced technology, implementing computers and robotics that I have never seen before. One of these features a mirror that tells you if you&#8217;re doing your dance moves correctly and gives an overall percentage; it also uses a memory machine that takes you back to previous memories using a photo from a phone. The way this machinery is portrayed is very impressive as well. It looks like something that people may use right now, even if they don\u2019t. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-medium is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/juror\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/circuitbreakers.b-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1782\" width=\"225\" height=\"127\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/juror\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/circuitbreakers.b-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/juror\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/circuitbreakers.b-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/juror\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/circuitbreakers.b-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/juror\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/circuitbreakers.b.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Another thing I found very extraordinary is the inclusion of many diverse characters, with each episode featuring a new set of characters. This gives a new light to each episode and lets a large variety of actors get a chance for a bigger role in the series. Finally, the cinematography is exceptional quality; each scene is clearly focused and uses so many angles for us to observe the action. <br><br>There is a different message in every episode; some of them are: never cheat your way to victory and be happy with what you have.<br><br>I give <em>Circuit Breakers 5 <\/em>out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 18, plus adults. It releases on Apple TV+ November 11, 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow the futuristic anthology as it tackles children&#8217;s issues through a sci-fi lens.
