Two years after the Westworld tragedy in the Delos amusement park, the corporate owners have reopened the park following over $1 billion in safety and other improvements.

Critics' reviews

"While not as memorable as its predecessor, 'Futureworld' ratchets up the camp, adding samurais, space travel and, most terrifying of all, an erotic dream sequence with Yul Brynner."

Rolling Stone
"'Futureworld' is a strong sequel to 'Westworld'"

Variety Staff: Variety
"The made-for-TV feel of the production, bland characters and familiar story leads to a pretty forgettable outing."

Scott Collura: IGN
"It’s a lot less exciting than the original and replaces satire with TV-style plotting."

Kim Newman: Empire
"A film about robots and, evidently, for robots. It is as much fun as running barefoot through Astroturf."

Richard Eder: The New York Times
"Although not so clever or original as its predecessor, 'Futureworld' is effective."
