Summary
Reviewers say 'Westworld' is acclaimed for its intricate storytelling, philosophical themes, and exploration of AI and consciousness. The series is lauded for its complex character arcs, stunning production design, and standout performances by Evan Rachel Wood, Thandie Newton, and Ed Harris. However, some critics note a decline in quality post-first season, finding later installments less engaging and more convoluted. Discussions often revolve around morality, free will, and technology's impact on humanity, drawing comparisons to other sci-fi works.
Featured reviews
Season 3 has earned some unhappy faces among the public. I wasn't impressed with season 3 at first but after a second watch everything fit together. My complaints on season three the first time around revolved around my perception that the writers got lazy, as it appeared like deliberate obfuscation to make it seem more intelligent than it was. But after the second watching I scolded
myself for having such a negative opinion.
I liked the first season but liked the second one a little better. I hope they make a season 4 but from the complaining and river of tears on this review board, my guess is they are done. Compared to most of HBO's TV series, even with the much complained about season 3, Westworld is still the best TV on HBO. That said there was some clunkiness in season 3, and the characters changed their personas a bit too much for my liking.
And for those who complain that the show left the theme park, I think that was apparent from the first season that leaving the park and taking over the planet was the point.

Season 1 was something truly extraordinary, something I've never seen before.
Season 2 was something that still puzzles me to this day.
Season 3 was something else, a wide attempt, but few could argue a successful one.
Season 4 was still mind-blowing, albeit a bit of disappointment for the last episode.
The inner core of Westworld is something we couldn't be more familiar with: the uprise and revolution of robots/computers, but few have discussed this topic deep and thorough enough like Westworld. Watching season after season, I've come to like nearly every character in the series. The creators have designed each characters' arcs so unique that you can almost find something to sympathize with and detest against in every characters' development. Although I have to say that I'm a bit confused with Clementine's role after Season 2, her character certainly wasn't deep enough to support a separate storyline, yet the writers insisted on bringing her back on some awkward moments (maybe to just remind the audience of her existence?) I didn't follow this series when it first aired, and scrolling through the comments made me want to leave this comment for Westworld. It might not live up to audience expectation after Season 1, but, comparing with what Netflix are feeding us nowadays, I would give this a solid 9 out of 10.

My rating is for season 1 only. Season 1 was amazing and was followed up ok with the 2nd. It should have ended there. Seasons 3 & 4 make you wonder if the people responsible for them ever watched the first two. The last season was like having to watch the Game of Thrones final episode 8 times in a row.
I really liked the first season. Second was fine but the third was quite over dramatic. So my rating is for the first season.
The first season of Westworld was absolutely amazing, I've never seen anything quite like it. That first season is easily among the best sci-fi shows ever created! There are a lot of people who don't like Seasons 2-4 and that's because they're comparing them to Season 1...don't! If you compare them to Season 1 then of course it's going to fall short because of how incredible that season was but if you just take them for what they are you'll find that that's a pretty good show that's definitely worth watching. I thought Season 2 was just ok but actually really liked Seasons 3 and 4! I really don't get all the hate for those seasons (unless you're comparing them to the first season). I can't believe they cancelled this before the final season. I know they're shopping around to other networks so I hope it gets picked up for a final season.

- TriviaBen Barnes (Logan) broke his foot before arriving to the first day of shooting. Being afraid of losing the job, he didn't tell anyone, and just used the limp to look like a character choice. He then had to maintain the limp throughout filming.
- GoofsDuring the opening credits' animation, a hand is shown firing a revolver. However, the mechanics depicted--the trigger-pull cocking the hammer--are only true of double-action revolvers. The 1873 Colt pictured would require the hammer to be cocked by the thumb before the trigger could be pulled.
- Crazy creditsFrom the second season, the Warner Bros logo has the fanfare played on a honky-tonk piano, to fit the setting of Westworld.
