Hot Take: Westworld's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Just got out of Westworld and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.
[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Westworld?
Director clearly thought Westworld was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.
Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Westworld actually is?
Look, I wanted to love Westworld. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Westworld?
Honestly, Westworld would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
