I tried for 5 minutes and somehow did not like it. It was having a high rating in imdb, so was just asking.

WestWorld - season 1 .... this post may contain spoilers ..... proceed with caution
Well well well, friends, not to burst to many bubbles, coming straight to the point Westword turned out to be an anticlimax experience to me, my expectations were completely different and it was differently played all together. Usualy I am very muck OK with shows which are more philosophical and less on action, but westworld...... the kind of premise it had, was totally out of place with too much of a philosophical approach and NO thrill at all, I mean no nada, forget edge of the seat material, it was not even enough thrilling that it left any urge to continue. NOW again I am ok with TV series with these kind of approaches, but westword (hinting towards the movie) could never have been enjoyed with this setup .(IMHO ofcourse).
Then they made it tooo convoluted, and confusing, again I am ok with non-liner way of showcasing the story line (Memento comes in mind, My one of the Best movies), but Westword made a mess of it .... and on the top of that ... it was way way toooo slow almost dragging in the middle episodes. Coming to confusing part again, ....OK....one thing is to make the plot intelligent and doing that you end up creating a convoluted timeline, which becomes a by-product, and hence accepted ...... the other way is you have a time line and just to make it look like intelligent you convolute it ... ...... thats what Westworld did, with irrelevant multiple timelines unnecessary use of metaphors and wayyyyyy to much of philosobabbling (yes I invented that word...lol).... made the entire show boring, not to forget it ran at a snail's pace, which added to the yawn effect caused by philosobabbling.
I was bitterly disappointed .... May be just maybe season 2 will recover itself, I dont know I doubt ..... westworld was one of my most anticipated TV Series in gone months and I am sad didnt work for me ..... 6.8/10 for this one
EXACTLY my thoughts too, I tried saying the same thing in TDF whatsapp group, then the attack of the fanboys happened
Its a good show, deserves 8-8.5/10 IMO, but not excellent and flawless

The Man in the high castle - Season 1 ... well officially my first TV series on Amazon India, (Technically 3rd with BOSCH and Dark Matter the previous two that I watched on US Amazon).
Ok coming to the show .... BRILLIANT, just BRILLIANT. The premise itself was so intriguing that I had to give it a try and, it paid off with flying colors. The plot in one line simply is like this ... ""What would it be like if the Allied Powers had lost WWII, and Japan and Germany ruled the United States? """ ........ interesting ..eh! and boy they made it with absolute perfection, with both production value and direction top notch, the environment, sets CGI all high quality, but the star of the show is the plot, the story line itself which least to say is total edge of the seat material. It follows multiple stories that connect with each other at different tangents, and keep you glued to the seat.
This is not the best part BTW, this show involves a very dominating sci fi aspect, which even though not obvious is the predominant aspect of the show, and it is very subtle you have to be very sharp in the show to notice the hints that gives us a big sci fi aspect running at the background. Its difficult for me to explain, your have to watch the show for it. but writers have done a splendid job in bringing the era live and inducing this ultimate sci fi aspect that blends so nicely with the premise. A must watch ...7.8/10 for this one. Looking fw for season 2
