Westworld isn't your typical amusement park. Intended for rich vacationers, the futuristic park -- which is looked after by robotic "hosts" -- allows its visitors to live out their fantasies through artificial consciousness. No matter how illicit the fantasy may be, there are no consequences for the park's guests, allowing for any wish to be indulged. "Westworld" is based on the 1973 Michael Crichton movie of the same name and features an all-star cast.

Critics Consensus

Westworld builds on its experimental first season, diving deeper into the human side of AI without losing any of its stylish, bloody glory.

As a show filled with mysteries and sudden twists and beautiful scenery, Westworld appears highly successful. But as a show exploring deeper issues, so far, it's a failure, which is disappointing because it's also a failure of storytelling.

In its second season, Westworld's special effects remain impressive and bursts of violence juice the narrative just when things get tedious.

Alta Fidelidad Magazine

The result is a hodgepodge that has the same ingredients as the film Inception, with occultism and science fiction. [Full review in Spanish]

While there are a few slight missteps, there is no denying that Westworld loves telling a grand, epic story.

It's not terrible, and there are some excellent episodes. Ultimately, it doesn't quite work here though - things feel aimless and meandering. Season 1 ended beautifully as a self-contained story rendering this attemot to continue further ring a bit hollow. It just doesn't seem to have much to say.

The style of the first season remains, it's a shame the story couldn't keep pace. Should of kept this to a limited series.

Very confusing as the show only made sense after watching the finale, so i can rate it rather high only in retrospect. While watching i was at times not as satisfied.

This season is good, but it is nothing in comparison to season 1. While it still holds the comfortable thrill of the westworld sh*tshow (that's a compliment) it seems to stray a little too much into the who-cares-ness of the real world. Personally, I couldn't give a rat's a** what's outside the walls of westworld or what the hosts do if they get there. Nope, that's called the boring a** world I currently live in and the age of discovery all people go through when they move out on their own. No, I don't care for that. And I have a feeling season 3 is going to take me further away from the home away from home that I got so interested in when I chose to give this show an honest try several years ago. Whatever the case, season 2 doesn't disappoint by any means. It just doesn't shine like the first one. Gets points for giving us more, and I recommend you give this series a good chunk of your time. So far, it is excellent!

In season 2 the show went down the drain. Started trending toward woke and story line started wobbling. This was the last season I'd watched.
