late to the game as usual, but this was worth the wait. Masterful storytelling, an exceptional cast, and truly incredible effects throughout.

Enjoyed a lot, great acting on all sounds and great twist at the end.

My first thought: The Hunger Games meets Jurassic Park with a Western theme, but the children/dinosaurs are androids that gradually gain more and more self-awareness. Intriguing, layered storylines that beg you to binge, but this is best…

This show is so far perfect. The story is intriguing, the visuals are beautiful and the acting is incredible.

This is a series about androids in the near future in a theme park in a Old Western America setting. Rich Humans can visit the park and live out their fantasies that they couldn't possible do in their real lives: Heroism, Villiany, murder,…

Exceptional show, a must-watch, but I'm giving it only 3 stars. Please let me explain... the story is carefully crafted with the exception of the character called Maeve. Her journey into consciousness and self awareness was ridiculous! A…

Absolutely loved this series. I would caution anybody watching it however, that "binge watching" just won't cut it as you'll miss way too many subtle details. How do I know? Because I did it, then when season 2 came out I watched it, then…

Several years ago, I took an Introduction to Philosophy class at the local community college. At one point, we discussed Alan Turing and his "Turing test": Can computers think? At what point does a computer--or an artificial intelligence…

I was thoroughly engrossed while watching this the first time. Then, after having seen season 2, I realized how truly layered, complex and deeply intentional this series really ends up being! I put season 1 back on hold, rewatched, and it…

A cerebral show. The story is presented in a twisted pattern (for a reason) which even when you realize what is being done you still have to think about what is going on. Also a bit hard to watch with frequent and graphic violence. I…

Pretty boring and dull sci-fi series. Sure you get to see some nudity and violence but big deal really. Seen it all before. So they bring in big name stars who are too old now to get big budget movies so they do lame TV shows as this. …

As others have mentioned there is a lot of unnecessary scenes in this series which earns its place on HBO next to Game of Thrones. The difference between the two is that Game of Thrones has been around long enough to become mainstream and…

This show's premise is so weird & disturbing, yet I can't stop thinking about it. Intriguing.

I liked the Westworld (1973) movie anytime it was shown as a rerun on TV, but always thought it was too slow moving. This TV series is only similar with its slow pace and its use of (malfunctioning) lifelike androids in a theme park for…

Tried the first episode for twenty minutes and got sick of the soft porn and naked people. Sorry about that too because Rachel Leigh Cook makes for a great heroine and I would have liked to have seen where this series was going, being a…

This television series follows the futuristic characters living in a futuristic amusement park with artificial intelligence running the show. The visitors are free to do as they please, without any consequences. This leads to trouble and…

A great show and a much needed "something new" entry to the cable science fiction genre (yes, it's a remake of a 70's movie, but it's still different than 90% of everything else out there). HBO seems to be building this show up to be the…

It lures the viewer in with a very enticing plot, and promising a premise that fascinates...but does not deliver. This is merely an exercise in misandry and feminist fantasy. Two thumbs down.

If Philip K. Dick were to write a TV series it would look something like Westworld. The show offers a good balance of philosophy and action, amazing special effects, and extraordinary acting. I loved it.

The best part of the series is that it manages to broach fundamental philosophical questions -- identity, being, time -- in a mass medium. The large downside, as other commentators note, is that it drags something fierce. It is like…

WestWorld is a feminist revenge fantasy masquerading as a philosophical treatise. In the end, far more power is generated by its blood-soaked vendetta against the patriarchy than by the wan intellectualizing of the A.I narrative. I mean,…

They spent $100 million for this series? Wow. The pilot alone was $25 million. Mildly interesting story with themes of reincarnation and self-discovery punctuated with gratuitous violence and nudity. I can think of so many positive…

In Westworld, a somewhat goofy premise-- a Wild West theme park stocked with ultra-realistic androids-- gets the HBO treatment. Naturally, there's a lot of flashy shoot outs, sex, and scheming going on, but what the show really impresses…

This show is excellent, I was hooked from the first episode! It's one of those shows that you tell everyone about, smart, original, very interesting with a great cast as well as great writing for the show! I am not much of a Western…

A well-crafted show with excellent performances, strong design both physically and narratively, and plot twists that are surprising but not arbitrary, but one that somehow still seems empty and unsatisfying. Perhaps this is the result of…
