Futmalls.com (2020) is a Taiwanese sci-fi drama, originally aired on Youku and now available on Netflix, exploring a mysterious website that grants people’s desperate wishes by selling items from the future. The concept is intriguing, but the series often struggles with logical inconsistencies — from the unexplained origin of the site to questionable police procedures and unrealistic character behavior. Despite these flaws, the story remains engaging, particularly the second case, which delivers a more emotional and human touch. The performances, especially from the actress playing Meizhen, elevate the series beyond its narrative gaps. At its core, Futmalls.com warns of how greed and desperation can blind us, tempting us to trade our morality and reason for the illusion of fulfillment.
