It’s her acting. She’s brings no complexity to her character, in a word, her character is dull. Wherein the MIB is a complex character, Maeve is a complex character, Bernard is somewhere between a complex character and dull.
My opinion is Maeve has more character, potential, internal conflict. It looks like she’s going to be saved next week by the human male with a developing love/loyalty interest. I hope so, she carried the series for a few episodes and the show would become totally unwatchable if she dies. I’ll just wait for the FAQ to come out rather than watch the rest.
I love classic Japanese movies with Samurai, warlords, the stoic faced Geishas with tragic storylines so I didn’t mind the tip of the hat to that genre, but yes. It seemed to follow no purpose.
“The star of the acclaimed HBO series Westworld Evan Rachel Wood hinted that fans who are critical of her character’s cold-hearted bloodlust and killing spree are sexist for opposing her acts of seemingly indiscriminate murder.”
Sexism? Really? She’s a fruitcake. She’s a robot in the series. How can she accuse people of being sexist towards a robot?
But, I did enjoy seeing that particular robot nekkid.
