Reviews

Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
matebor I was born in 1996, but I never watched Samurai Jack as a kid. A few months before I was searching for a series to pass the time, and I found this series, adventure of a warrior who wants to get home. Samurai Jack, in my opinion is a masterpiece. It tells the story of a man who lost everything, but he saves hundreds of lives during his journey, he gives hope to others. In the 5th season, we see the broken, hopeless samurai, who lost his hope and almost his mission.It's not a perfect series for sure. But the ending, my friends, the last few minutes of the last episode, was pure perfection. It was a roller-coaster of emotions without a single word have been spoken. The hope he gave, he got it back. I think this is just one of my favorite seasons of all time.You got back. Back to the past. Samurai Jack.
Jesper Brun Samurai Jack is undoubtedly the most unique TV-series I have ever watched. The setting of the series is unlike anything I have ever seen before on TV: A samurai warrior is being send into the dystopian future by a devilish demon and must encounter several futuristic creatures and minions of the demon to find his way back to his present time to defeat the demon. The cinematics used to create many of the action scenes makes it the more intense and add to the heavy atmosphere. Other traits in especially these scenes are the sound effects made for the sword fight. It underlines the effect on Jack's opponents and contrasts the primarily downplay of dialogue. I find it most interesting and will highly recommend to everyone who likes good storytelling and visually interesting experiences
Dennis Evans I could write pages on why this show is so great; a 15 year hiatus only to come back with a 7 episode season with an ending that actually made me cry, characters that you meet once but remain in your mind as if they're regulars, the numerous and increasingly more amazing fight scenes with the main villain... Literally a reason for every episode that could be expanded upon for paragraphs, but I'll leave it as this: everything about the show, even it's imperfections, are 100% perfect.
Daniel Dell I REALLY love Samurai Jack. It is among my MOST favorite animated show from the 2000s. I'm a 2000s kid, and I love this show. I know Genndy's other show Dexter's Laboratory didn't become as funny as it used to be when later Loud House creator Chris Savino took over, but it can still be entertaining. However, Samurai Jack is Genndy Tartakovsky's best show ever. Samurai Jack is absolutely flawless!! It used to be one of Cartoon Network's best shows of all time, NOW it's become Adult Swim's BEST show of all time. Yes, because Adult Swim gave Samurai Jack one more season! Samurai Jack DEFINES Cartoon Network AND Adult Swim. The action sequences were awesome, the animation was awesome, the characters were awesome, everything about Samurai Jack was awesome!! I am so glad Adult Swim is giving Samurai Jack a proper conclusion.
