文末有惊喜







These violent delights have violent ends.And in their triumph die,like fire and powder,which,as they kiss,consume.  

 ——William Shakespeare

      

上周的某一天,我打开手机豆瓣,点开了首页的“一周豆瓣热门影视”,恍惚在排行里看到《西部世界》几个字,以为只是烂俗的西部放牛的故事(《断背山》的片段在我脑海中浮现)【原谅我头发长见识短,没看过1973年版《西部世界》电影】,我当然不以为然,因为在《权利的游戏》后,我就对看剧失去了兴趣。就这样和月初就上的剧插肩而过。        

      直到昨天,没有原因,莫名的,让我突然想了解一下这部剧,习惯性地在收索框里输入“西部世界”。接下来的一切,使29号凌晨一点的我,激动不已;导致我昨天和室友外出玩耍,都久久不能平息。

      首先,作为不是资深的电影电视爱好者,我比较依赖豆瓣,所以一开始是它的评分引起了我的注意。


豆瓣和烂番茄评价


同时,此剧的烂番茄指数也是到达了90%,第一集更是达到100%。




出品公司

其次,看到出品公司HBO(Home Box Office,是总部位于美国纽约的有线电视网络媒体公司,其母公司为时代华纳集团)你只需要记住,HBO出品,必属精品。记得这些HBO的作品吗?

导演

      当然,除了出品公司HBO牛逼以外,导演也是大有来头。该片总导演是乔纳森·诺兰(Jonathan Nolan),是不是很熟悉。当然,因为他是克里斯托弗·诺兰(Christopher Johnathan James Nolan)(《Inception》的导演)的弟弟啊!身高188的他不仅相貌英俊,也是才子一枚。大学毕业不久,乔纳森就担任电影《记忆碎片》的制片助理,与此同时,这部电影也就是基于他写过的短片小说《Memento Mori》改编而成的。在《记忆碎片》大获成功后,乔纳森诺兰继续担任哥哥克里斯托弗诺兰的合作编剧,两人合作完成《致命魔术》和《黑暗骑士》。2011年担任美剧《疑犯追踪》的主创。乔纳森也是《盗梦空间》、《黑暗骑士》、《蝙蝠侠:开战时刻》等由哥哥克里斯托弗诺兰指导的制片人之一。另外,乔纳森也是《终结者2018》的编剧之一。

问题来了!

看完牛逼闪闪的背景,那这部剧到底讲了啥(这个问题太难了,因为我也只看了前四集,自己去看吧!)


剧情简介

The series tells us a story that in the distant future, a giant high-tech adult park with the theme of the western world , provides tourists with sexual satisfaction and killing.However,with the robots gradually developing their own awareness and thinking,they began to doubt the nature of the world. And then awaken to resist the rule of mankind.

该剧讲述了遥远的未来,一座巨型高科技以西部世界为主题的成人乐园,它提供给游客杀戮与性欲的满足,随着机器人有了自主意识和思维,使他们开始怀疑这个世界的本质,进而觉醒并反抗人类的故事。

USER REVIEWS

Excellent

This show is so far perfect. The story is intriguing, the visuals are beautiful and the acting is incredible.
The previous reviewer who said the violence is unnecessary has missed the point in my opinion. The violence is very much needed. It is there to make you feel uncomfortable, because it is that inner dark side and battle between good and evil (and more often than not the middle ground between) that is at the very epicenter of the human condition.This is what the show is often commenting on and this is what makes this show so interesting, thought provoking and ultimately entertaining.
If it carries on in the same vein we will have a modern day classic on our hands

Intensely disturbing dance of sociopathic humans and emotional robots

No spoilers... I haven't watched the original movie. I won't watch it either, because I want to be guided by this series. 
The theme song and intro are brilliant. Warm piano music contrast the robot-esque fabrication and programming of man made perfection. 
The story does not seem to be everlasting in length but almost infinite in width. Imagine what kind of people would pay to go to a place where no laws affect you, where paying customers can murder, rape, live their fantasies without scrupulous. The man made actors and actresses in a real fictional world often seem more human then the paying clients who visit Westworld to create their personal Sodom and Gomorrah. Its a dance of empathy and apathy on every level. The depth is breathtaking, the viewer is treated on a painfully confronting view of what man is capable off.


Intriguing story, awesome cast, intelligent writing, well worth watching

Westworld is an ambitious retelling of a 1973 film by Michael Crichton about a theme park inhabited by androids referred to as "hosts". The story isn't original by any means but the material is rich and ripe enough for a deeper exploration. The production is grand, sets beautiful, acting high caliber with the likes of Ed Harris and Anthony Hopkins headlining. The plot is intriguing and chock full of existential musings from the human characters that take on the role of gods, that create, mold, kill, rape or plunder. The show explores the dark side of humanity and presents the thesis that people will indulge in their darkest selves if given the chance to do so without consequence. 

Westworld is poised to be the next Game of Thrones but it's appeal is not in the nudity (and there are lots of it) or the violence, it is the richness of the world they've created, the possibilities of each character and the delightful acting from a mix of new and veteran cast. Evan Rachel Wood is a wonder to watch. The subtle changes in her expression and voice as she shifts from her android self to the sentient host she is programmed to play is enchanting. The supporting characters are equally brilliant from Thandie Newton's hustling madame to James Marsden's noble cowboy, down to the extras playing unmoving bodies being repaired. HBO pulled all the stops to make sure this new show would be a success and from the looks of it, it has all the ingredients to be a truly epic watch.

总 结

    上大学之后就很少看剧了,一般喜欢看电影,不耽搁时间。但不知怎么回事,偏偏会遇到一些让我着迷的剧。我看的剧很少,也比较不喜欢关注演员,导演什么的,总的来说,就是没文化。但还是想安利这部剧。这两天看了很多剧评,写得非常好,很有深度,我觉得写影评这些人都特别有才,我很佩服,我在努力,希望有一天我也能写出这么棒的影评。

     当然,在看影评中也遇到许多人吐槽这部剧,总是把《黑镜》,《疑犯追踪》(这两部我都没看过)拿来对比。对于这种人,我只能呵呵(傻X,没事老刷存在感)。

    总之,不管大家喜不喜欢,安利就在这里!什么样的人会喜欢这部剧,如果你喜欢《宇宙大爆炸》或者《破产姐妹》什么的,就不用看了。如果你喜欢《权利的游戏》,我相信你会喜欢这部剧的!
