À propos de ce film

For $1,000 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. MPAA Rating: PG (c) 1973 A Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. All Rights Reserved

Notes et avis

Pretty terrible, and I have never wanted the bad guy to win so much in my life. The protagonist is the most annoying character ever with a mustache that needs to be eradicated for good. If only the man in black killed him at the end, then maybe this movie would have gotten 3 stars from me.

A perfect mix of western and SCI-FI and an incredible performance by Yul Brynner. This movie is part of my childhood and I cannot recall the number of times I watched it on TV as a youngster. Time to watch it again... I'll draw first.

I don't understand why this film has such high ratings. Maybe in the 1970s this film was exciting, but it has not aged well. It's mostly bad action with a light plot.
