Critics Review
Praise for the Netflix series“An exceptional action spectacle unlike anything I’ve seen in the medium of television and film this year… Every episode captivates with its raw, extremely violent sword fights… A fully realized, epic action series that seamlessly integrates some of the most intricate action filmmaking to be seen on television in years, with a beating human heart that makes us care.” –RogerEbert.com“Squid Game meets Shōgun… The first episode, with its dynamic opening in the Boshin War and its climactic melee at the Kyoto temple, sets an immediate high bar when it comes to samurai slicing and dicing… Delivering an ample supply of…samurai action.” –Hollywood Reporter“A wildly exhilarating roller coaster that deftly balances historical intrigue with personal heroism and an escalating body count.” –South China Morning Post
