DVD Reviews of Westworld

DVD Review: Great Movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie was as great the second time as when I saw it over 30 years ago. The acting is superb and Yul Brynner's character is cold and souless. If you want to have a good time while seeing a movie, this is the one to see.

DVD Review: West World
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a cult classic starring a legendary actor, Yul Brynner. Inspite of the lack of today's modern special effects, this movie still takes you on a thrill-ride. You feel like you're being chased. Yeah, it's old school but it works.

DVD Review: How about a Special Edition version?
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a nifty little thriller. I enjoy it every time I see it. But, how come no Special Edition DVD? Richard Benjamin, James Brolin and Michael Crichton are all still alive and kicking. I'd love to hear what they have to say about the making of and all that. How about it?

DVD Review: A slow motion sleeper
Summary: 2 Stars

I remember being taken to this picture at least 3 times when I was younger, and after last night's viewing, I asked my parents "Why?".
Yul is kinda going through the motions of hiss "Magnificent Seven" routine, James is kinda annoying, and Richard is really the wrong actor to hold this snore-fest together. Now if the dad from "Eight is Enough" was cast as lead, instead of the dufus minor role he had, then I could see the humor come to life, and maybe keep me awake long enough to care till the end, but it doesn't happen that way, and boy-oh-boy, is this movie SLOW!!
Be warned.

DVD Review: Westworld
Summary: 5 Stars

Yul Brynner is relentless as the western gunshooter robot gone out of control. Great sci-fi type movie for all ages.

Description of Westworld

For $1000 a day vacationers can indulge whims at the theme park called Westworld. They can bust up a bar or bust out of jail drop in on a brothel or get the drop on a gunslinger. It's all safe: the park's lifelike androids are programmed never to harm the customers. But not all droids are getting with the program. Michael Crichton (Jurassic Park Twister) wrote and made his directing debut with this futuristic thriller that heralded moviemaking's future as the first feature to use digitized images. Richard Benjamin and James Brolin portray pals confronted by a simulated reality turned real. And Yul Brynner is their stalking spur-jangling nemesis. It's man versus machine - in a tomorrow that isn't big enough for the both of them.Running Time: 92 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DRAMA UPC:?012569506725
Welcome to Delos, the high-tech Disneyland for adults that Michael Crichton created for Westworld, a nifty science fiction thriller from 1973 that also marked the popular novelist's feature-film directorial debut. The movie is so named because the vacationing buddies who travel to Delos (James Brolin, Richard Benjamin) choose Westworld as their destination (the other choices being Roman World and Medieval World), where they are free to indulge their movie-inspired fantasies of the Wild West. From brothel beauties to black-hatted gunslingers (like the villain played by Yul Brynner), the place is populated by perfectly humanlike robots programmed and monitored to cater to every guest's fancy. But fun turns into abject horror when the robots--particularly Brynner's badman--begin to malfunction and Delos turns into an amusement park that's anything but amusing. Westworld has moments of camp and the look of a low-budget backlot production, but two decades before Crichton revamped his idea to create Jurassic Park, this movie made the most of its interesting and exciting premise. --Jeff Shannon
