All of these short films have amazing visuals, great directing and acting. Some of these story ideas are indeed likely to be similar to something you have already seen in other movies or series, but it still manages to take a new approach on a lot of these themes and subjects.
What people don't understand is that this isn't a series... These are experimental shortfilms independant from each other and that are meant (as often done in cinema, and as for example James Wan did with Saw) to gather feedback and eventually producers to make the most appreciated ones into full length movies. I can understand why people watching this on Netflix are angry about it, since they are expecting a show / series, and these informations should definitely be written in the description on Netflix in order to prevent confusing people who will not take the time to look up what this really is.
So yes, these aren't whole stories, but more glimpses, visuals and presentations of the different universes and characters that could be involved in these, if they were made in full length movies.
Now that you are advised, watch and enjoy or just pass on it if you don't care about this type of stuff and would rather watch a full length movie or series ;)
