Everything glows. One hopes for a happy ending, of course, but what matters most is shape and color, the abstraction of rain on stone, the sun through the trees. It makes "Samurai Jack" endlessly rewatchable: Every picture tells a story.March 08, 2017
The return of Samurai Jack is a slam dunk that shatters the glass. Everything that made the original show so great is back with more intensity and maturity.March 13, 2017
Jack is back and better than ever. The years may not have been kind to the samurai, but his suffering makes for good television, promising a contemplative and compelling season.March 08, 2017
I'm happy to report that this cartoon created by Genndy Tartakovsky is as exciting, beautiful, and multilayered as it ever was.March 21, 2017
This beautifully drawn, animated, and edited cartoon is a cut above most.March 13, 2017
I love Samurai Jack's action sequences, but something tells me this season will spend a bit more time exploring interiors.March 09, 2017
Tartakovsky fills screens with flowing purple sunsets or lush forests that are nothing short of looking at a dream.March 09, 2017
There's an uncanny power to this series that defies language, and it's rooted in Samurai Jack's commitment to formal experimentation.March 03, 2017
It's hard to tell if this tighter approach to episodic storytelling will reach a satisfying end, since Tartakovsky excels more at bringing us into the heat of the moment than exploring a bigger picture. But he's off to a promising start.March 04, 2017
Samurai Jack season 5 is a matured continuation to the saga that's action packed, emotionally affecting, beautifully animated and endlessly entertaining.
