Westworld (Season 4): Back to the origins

Westworld is a series that from its first episode I loved, its plot, its twists in the story, characters, music, setting. It was an excellently made series and at that time it was in my top favorite series, then came its second season and my love for that series increased even more, much more drama, unexpected plot twists, character development, the music continued to be spectacular and also, these first two seasons, had spectacular endings, which left you wanting much more.

But then came the third season, which, I do not consider it to be all bad, but it completely lost the essence and charisma of the first two, there were not so many mysteries or plot twists that left you with your mouth open, there are good moments, of course, but this 3rd season focused much more on action and although they added Aaron Paul to the casting, who played Jesse Pinkman in my favorite series: Breaking Bad, he did not contribute so much to the story, or at least he did not contribute 100%, although it does have good and interesting moments, but in itself, this third season is too far away from its origin.

However, the 4th season that just ended returns to its roots, although not as much as the first two seasons, but overall there is a pretty interesting mystery which keeps you on your toes about what is going to happen in the chapter and the following ones. I don't want to go into spoilers about this season, but it really is quite good.

Westworld centers on a theme park in the Wild West, which is full of robots that pretend to live in that "reality", but they are mere "toys" for humans who go there in search of adventure, in search of an interesting story and also to bring out their deepest desires. But everything gets out of control, when one of these "robots" begins to generate consciousness and a series of devastating events begin to occur.

This series is based on a fairly old movie, in fact there are several movies, which I haven't seen yet, but I will see them at some point. And speaking of this 4th season, I'm glad it has returned to its roots, because this is really a series with a very interesting and catchy story. And by the way the last episode of the 4th season ended, it seems that they are going to return even more to what was seen in the first two seasons, I hope it really is so. Although a 5th season is not yet confirmed, I think it is quite logical that there will be one, and I also think that this could be the last season of the series and the one that finally gives closure to this great story.
