Text: Going into this series, i didn't have any expectations or hopes. Well i did hope it would be as good as The Mandalorian, but it just wasn't. First off, this is really slow, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but with the plot being so thin, the slowness makes absolutely zero sense.

The fight scenes were so awkward. I felt myself gaping at how laughable the poses and fight stances were, especially with the weird group of kids. The group made no sense with the story, and further lowered whatever rating I would give in the end.

Cad Bane is such a cool character, so what was the through process behind his character? Wasted potential, and really didn't add anything to the plot of the series.

Was there any good? Absolutely! The scenery is absolutely gorgeous, as star wars movies very rarely betray, and episode 5 and 6 (really just the story of The Mandalorian) were enthralling! The music were as good as ever.

Something about this whole series feel a bit uncoordinated and make-up-things-as-we-go. I will give this a 6, despite all the bad, because it's not a bad series over all, I just expected much more from star wars. A great concept, but the execution? Not so much.

Westworld started off as a cool concept i wanted to try out. No prior knowledge, except for the fact that Westworld is a world created for people to act just like they want without any consequences. In other words, my expectations were nonexistent.

*EXPLAINING OF PLOT, BUT NO SPOILERS* The creatures of which people can kill, rape, hurt, etc. Are extremely realistic robots, made to look just like humans. However, they act as npc's with somewhat of a set amount of answers and dialogue, or that is what we would like to think.

*END OF EXPLANATION*

The story touches in on the possibilities of artificial intelligences, and where morals and ethics might need to be put into consideration, when using and being near technology. Are we too self centered to ever believe that something non-human could have a conscious.

The first season was absolutely amazing. It made me sick and nauseous, because of the realistic portrayal of these robots, and the cruelty of humans. To see something so horrifyingly disgusting being done towards human-like creatures, might seem far fetched in real life, when in reality it is not.

I do believe that, as well as many other movies and series, there are things we can learn from this fictive story, that might not be so unrealistic in our society.

To end this little review, i must say I got a little disappointed with the second and third season, where things spiralled out of control, the drama was all over the place, and the character developments seemed rushed and not scripted well enough. The first season is unforgettable, the two others, are unfortunately not.

Thousands of points on all seasons for special effects, vfx, cgi, etc. And just the beautiful scenery and cinematography. I was mind-blown throughout the whole series. This goes for the film music too.

I'd love to give this amazing series a 9 or maybe even a 10, if it wasn't for the rapid decline in quality from season one.

I watched this for the first time with my girlfriend who grew up with it. I initially thought that she might've exaggerated how good it is based on childhood nostalgia, but I was clearly wrong. The colours and the characters are absolutely dreamy, and the overall experience was so pleasing to the eye. No, the plot doesn't really make too much sense, and trying to find hidden meanings behind every nook and turn of this movie will be hopeless, but that might be the point. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy this exhilarating and beautiful movie.
