    We have many sci-fi tv series telling example about superheros, about a group of teenagers in unusual strange world (zombie, new planet). Most of them reproduces standards, most ot them are made to ideally placed in current age group, limitations of classification. Westworld dont care about standards and is not story about a pair of lovers.
    It shows a vision of the world, which is not pleasant, it shows us humans as the final stage of perfection progress technology and at the same time the extreme degeneration what sits in our mind. It can also be a story about what happens if people try to make intelligent machines over which as we think we are and we will always have full power.
    I hope for a good story narrate on the good sci-fi atmosphere of the movie, something engaging and at the same time demanding the viewer to use the brain.    … Expand

    The most overrated show on TV. The ideas it explores are somehow both naive and cynical, obvious and too complex for such a simple minded show. It also seems to explore exploitation while using exploitative means.

    Repetitive, slow and completely uninteresting. Too many questions, no answers. Unlikeable characters. This and the expanse have to be two of the worst shows on Television right now. At least Ash vs Evil Dead is exciting. I don't want to put to sleep, I want to be on the edge of my seat.

    Finally a show that gets better and more interesting as it goes instead of tricking you with a flashy start and boring you in the second half.

    I wasn't really into it for the first couple of episodes but in the end I see this as a masterpiece.

    I'm sure the first day reviewers who gave it an unfair 0 must feel really really stupid right now.

Pity the poor actors I say, having to do the best they can with the dross they have been given. Worse they have to be complicit in the "shock horror titillation" rape culture beloved of TV Producers.

    I am not entirely sure I would ever want to go somewhere I could live out my vilest fantasies; not least because I don't have vile fantasies. Strangely I am not a psychopathic murderer that takes pleasure in inflicting pain on others. Westworld is about the last place I could imagine myself taking a holiday.

    Ultimately that is my biggest problem with Westworld. It isn't a place I want to be transported to. If it is your "thing" then have at it. But me? I'm hohum about the premise, underwhelmed by the acting, disappointed by the dialogue, sickened by the sexual violence and plain bored by the (increasingly repetitive) violence.

    What is foreground thematically is emerging, authentic humanity, memory and wakefulness in primarily the lead female characters.

    Secondarily this theme: the robots were first created NOT for playthings for the rich. They were first created to embody authentic wakeful humanity. Experiences of personal suffering are the "cornerstone" of each constructed identity. Later Westworld corrupted into a "playground for the rich." The emerging humanity of the robots is contrasted (clumsily, probably an afterthought) with the corrupt inhumanity of rich elites. The blood, gore and sex are commercial window dressing for the above two themes.

    For me, the show seems like it will either be a huge success or a huge fail. I don't see any middle ground for this show, especially after the very audacious first couple episodes.

    I'm enjoying it so far, but there are only 4 episodes, at the time of writing this, so it's hard to really judge it yet. So far it has been the type of show where you watch the episodes again because there are a lot of little hints that leave holes to be filled with theories and speculation.

    BICAMERAL MIND

    Mind is a fickle thing that should not be underestimated.

    Westworld season One came to an end with the best way possibly it could have happened. It continued to follow many storylines that were developed throughout the season with William and Logan storyline continuing to evolve, as their relationship finally becoming clear fully, and it was very enjoyable to see exactly how it all played out, as everything came to a head. This particular continued to explore and evolve the storylines since the opening credits. But it also does something amazing, it manages to answer a lot of questions that fans had throughout the season, with opening new doorways and asking new questions that will be the headliner for the next season coming up.
    Dolores’ storyline also gets full circle, and is one of the most interesting parts that have happened in this episode. Without spoiling anything, the best part of this episode is that we find out that storylines truly can converge in a way that makes sense and even though there were few very small inconsistencies but did not detract from the overall enjoyment of the show.
    Bernard’s storyline takes a turn as well, which will most likely prove very fruitful in season 2 with his character is being thrown into a fray, and the situation that he is not familiar with. It is going to be very interesting to see where his story continues to evolve to, and what his position is going to be in season 2.
    Maeve’s storyline continued to evolve as they touched on quite a bit development, which was explained earlier in the season, and as I mentioned earlier in the review for Episode 9, her story took a dark turn, and its looking like its going to continue in that direction, which is going to be super exciting.
    We have also learned the purpose behind Ford’s story and how it came full circle as well.
    This whole episode served as a reminder as to what a good cliffanger is.Lot of things were answered, lot of new options were put up to continue being developed on the second season.
    I am going to refer this as Closed Cliffanger, which is executed perfectly. Lot of answers of Season 1 were answered, almost to a point that no loose ends for those given storylines were left, in this season, however has left us wondering: “What now”. And it clearly brought in a new chapter in WestWorld mythos, and shows would need to learn that having an “Open” Cliffanger, as to having to find out the end of something mid-scene usually is not the best course of action.
    This episode has cemented WestWorld as one of the best shows on TV, and it looks like its going to continue to impress going forward.
    All the performances in the finale were spot on, not saying they were not the entire season, but sometimes, in certain shows, you can see that actors are trying harder than usual to make sure that every emotional beat is met. That is not what we have here in Westworld. Everything was fully natural, and just a joy to watch. Especially since this was an extended episode of the show, and another perfect example of how to do an extended episode without using the extra time frame just to pad the time for commercials, which certain shows tend to do.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am going to keep this short and sweet. This show was probably my most anticipated series of 2016, mainly in part to finding J. Nolan's writing to being close to perfect. Westworld at first had me slightly disappointed as I expected the beginning of the show to be nothing short of exemplary, however it struck me as only good. The main reason for this was I felt none of the AI characters and their story lines had any consequence or meaning. You would watch a scene between to AI characters and think, none of this is real so I don't really need to absorb myself in what is happening. To my relief the second half of the show was outstanding. The narrative that nothing mattered in each of the AI's lives was finally worth paying attention to as they slowly began to question the endless loops they were in, this allowed for an eerie contrast as the viewer often had little to no idea what to expect. I would rate the first half a 7 and the second half a 10. This is entirely nitpicking as I am sure the concerns I had are probably specific to me, I love to absorb myself in the minutia of the details, of every word that flows from a characters mouth.… Expand
