Product Description

Product Description

A lawyer and businessman (Richard Benjamin and James Brolin) take a dream holiday to the newly opened technological paradise Westworld, a resort offering its visitors all the thrills, but none of the dangers, of the old Wild West, which is recreated by supposedly harmless robots. However, when one of the computerized gunslingers (Yul Brynner) malfunctions, the two city slickers find themselves in a battle for their lives. Directorial debut of 'Jurassic Park' author, Michael Crichton.

From Amazon.co.uk

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). The place is populated by perfectly humanlike robots programmed and monitored to cater to every guest's fancy, from brothel beauties to black-hatted gunslingers (such as the villain played by Yul Brynner). But fun turns into abject horror when the robots--particularly Brynner's villain--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 back-lot 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, Amazon.com --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

2.0 out of 5 starsPoor Bluray of a Classic Film
By Sundance on 18 Oct. 2015
Format: Blu-ray
Westworld remains wonderful as it always has been, and seeing it now takes it out of the science fiction realm and brings it pretty close to science fact. That Michael Crichton was onto something.

But, this review is not about the film, it's about the bluray.
The PQ of this film is nearly the worst I've ever purchased on bluray. That is the sole reason why I am posting this review, as a warning to others. I have no idea what some of the other reviewers who are positive about the picture are referring to, but in my experience, the overall transfer quality if appalling. (I viewed it on a 46" screen; perhaps on a small 20" screen it looks good.)
There are a small handful of close ups which have been cleaned up and look good. Some of the more scenic vistas of Westworld look reasonable, but compare them to the vistas of Medieval World and Roman World and you're in for a shock.
For the most part, the image is soft and pasty. Yes, it is better than the VHS copy I had, but not worth a bluray purchase. I'm selling mine.

The disc comes with the aborted TV pilot of Beyond Westworld for those wondering.

4.0 out of 5 starsBefore Terminator
By M. Dowden HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on 13 Dec. 2008
Format: DVD
Nowadays if you ask someone to name a film that has a robot shaped as a man that kills, people will say Terminator. Long before then though this fantastic movie had been made. In a special complex people can live out their dreams in Medieval World, Roman World, or West World. You can kill the robots and live out your fantasies (including sexual) with these androids. But what happens when they start to go wrong?

In an ideal holiday complex things are just about to go drastically wrong. With the androids going out of control the holidaymakers find that they are playing for their lives. Yul Brynner is excellent as the resolute killing android cowboy.

Although most people must have seen this film at some stage, it is always good to watch again and again. I have heard ruomours for a few years now that this is going to be re-made, but whether that will happen or not, we'll just have to wait and see.

4.0 out of 5 starsDelos is the vacation of the future......
By Spike Owen TOP 500 REVIEWER on 4 April 2011
Format: DVD
Westworld is written and directed by Michael Crichton and stars Yul Brynner, Richard Benjamin and James Brolin. Story is set in the near future at an amusement park, no ordinary amusement park, tho. Here there are three worlds, Western, Medieval and Roman, where for $1,000 a day the clients can act out their fantasies in worlds alive with androids brilliantly made to look and act like human beings. But one day something goes wrong, there's a glitch and the androids fail to respond to their programming...

A monstrously great set up makes for a fine piece of sci-fi cinema. True enough to say that it needed a far better director than Crichton to fully realise the potential on offer, both visually and thematically, but Westworld manages to overcome the directors failings and reward the patient viewer. Seeping with bleak overtones as the scientists force technology to over reach itself, the film is propelled forward by a clinically robotic performance from Bryner as an android gunslinger. Clearly riffing on his character Chris Adams from The Magnificent Seven, Bryner is a perfect fit for a seemingly unstoppable force, cold dead shark eyes and fluid in the walk, he's a memorable sci-fi bad guy. Around him the rest of the cast are only adequate, but in a film revolving around androids looking like humans it's barely an issue. The effects used for the androids POV are effective, as is the reveal of what lays beneath the skin, while the finale plays out with pace and no little excitement.

Very much a forerunner to The Terminator, and even Predator, Westworld belies its 70s exterior to reveal an intelligent and potent little shocker. 7/10

5.0 out of 5 starsFantastic futuristic movie from 1973 and director and writer Michael ...
By cinemascope on 29 Nov. 2015
Format: Blu-ray
Fantastic futuristic movie from 1973 and director and writer Michael Crichton,Yul Bryner as the robot gun slinger is superb. Great HD Scope transfer from Warner Bros,colour and sound spot on!! Please note for UK buyers i can confirm to you as this is not even mentioned on the back of the case,this version does you will be pleased to know have the following special features as on the US edition -
Featurette (480i; 1.33:1; 9:07): This vintage EPK offers brief but informative interviews with Crichton, Brynner and Benjamin, as well as production footage and background on the film.

Beyond Westworld: 1980 TV Pilot (480i; 1.33:1; 47:52): This is the pilot for the quickly abandoned series that CBS attempted to develop from the film. The series jettisoned the notion of technology run amuck and substituted a human villain named Quaid (James Wainwright), who had designed the robots but didn't like seeing them wasted on leisure activities. Quaid seized control of the entire robot population and had them destroy the theme parks. Now it's up to corporate troubleshooter John Moore (Jim McMullan) to stop whatever Quaid has planned, which seems to involve national security.

Trailer (480i; 1.78:1, enhanced; 3:07): The trailer is memorable and was widely remarked on at the time because of the voiceover. Super film great imagination from the late great Michael Crichton who went onto write the superb Jurassic Park enjoy. Mark Lees, Wallasey,Merseyside.Nov 2015.
