Featured reviews
I'm looking at these reviews in absolute disbelief. Nostalgia is a very very powerful thing. I just can't think of any other reason. Bringing back old characters for an entire episode does not make it more powerful. Having an ending does not make it inherently good. There's so much wrong with the direction of this and the entire last half of the season. It's beautiful yes, but god, that is not enough. I'm a huge fan. This was the epitome of disappointment. I sat through this with six other people (2 of which had never seen Jack before) and we collectively cringed the entire way through. As for the entirety of season 5, I'm all for character development and right turns in the story but the last half of the season was haphazard, jarring, unsubtle, and shallow.
From my childhood (I am a 31 year old Maltese man who grew up watching Cartoon Network), I always loved the 'Samurai Jack' series for its sublime and creative art style, still relatively unmatched in a lot of respects, and certain themes (such as the obvious, the disparity between good and evil).
When my girlfriend Charlene told me about this new season (that is Season 5), I could not believe it! Was she pulling my leg? Would they spoil one of my beloved TV series from my childhood? I honestly believe that they have done credit to an already outstanding TV series and it is definitely profound at some parts (such as the seemingly futility of goodness and the objectivity of evil which are explored in the episodes).
I would like to thank the producers for such a lovely final season to a beloved TV series! I enjoyed it immensely. Well done!

Ever since Samurai Jack ended in 2004, i've had a huge hole in my body, something missing, a true ending, Samurai Jack is a series i grew up with, i was 8 years old when the series started, 11 years old when it ended in 2004, and ever since that day it ended, there haven't been single day where i haven't thought about Samurai Jack, there haven't been a single day where i haven't been angry and sad..
Now all of that is finally gone, i got the true and deserved ending i have wanted for the past 10 years. I'm now 23 years old, who can say, from the bottom of my heart. Thank you. Thank you for making this last season. This has been an amazing journey. Samurai Jack will always have a huge place in my heart.
