Westworld is tonight’s science fiction thriller television series premiering on HBO. Developed by Jonathan Nolan (Christopher Nolan’s brother) and Lisa Joy, Westworld is based on the 1973 film of the same name, which was written and directed by Michael Crichton. John Nolan serves as executive producer along with Joy, J. J. Abrams and Bryan Burk with Nolan directing the pilot. HBO is hoping Westworld will be their next massive hit after Game Of Thrones ends. Initial reviews for the series are incredibly positive, with Rotten Tomatoes saying “With an impressive level of quality that honors its source material, the brilliantly addictive Westworld balances intelligent, enthralling drama against outright insanity.”
Described as “a dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the future of sin,” the series tells the story of a futuristic theme park called Westworld. The Westworld synopsis reads:
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” — which is based on the 1973 Michael Crichton movie of the same name — features an all-star cast that includes Oscar winner Anthony Hopkins and Golden Globe winner Ed Harris.
HBO’s Westworld looks like it’s shaping up to be the next great television phenomenon, so make sure you keep up and find out how to stream the premiere episode online below!

Westworld HBO Reviews
Rotten Tomatoes: “With an impressive level of quality that honors its source material, the brilliantly addictive Westworld balances intelligent, enthralling drama against outright insanity.”
The Playlist: “‘Westworld’ is a deeply textured sci-fi series that offers the thesis that the greatest monsters humanity may face, are the ones we make in our likeness.”
Uproxx: “This is an addictive experience in which the most compelling questions have less to do with the narrative than the meaning of existence.”
TV Line: “Smart and emotional, gorgeously shot and (mostly) beautifully acted, this A.I. drama computes.”
IGN: “From its standout cast to its excellent visuals to one hell of a hummable score by the great Ramin Djawadi, this is top-notch television in every respect.”
Collider: “Everything is contained, intimate, and carefully crafted, and fans of Crichton will immediately feel the familiarity with his most famous stories’ themes: what overly-confident humans create quickly spirals out beyond our control.”
