Andrei D 4d AS many prestige series, it moves too fast as it approaches the end, but it's well acted, carefully plotted, and made with plenty of resources See more Michael F Nov 29 Perfect way to tell a story, not extend it out with nonsensical filler. Excellent cinematography, direction, writing and flawless acting. Deserves all the praise See more Darin R. @darindowski Nov 20 Wow! This is an amazing immersion into 17th century Japan. Strong characters, honor, romance, palace intrigue, and a deep view into traditional Japanese culture. Great series. See more Edward L Nov 15 Brilliant remake of the old Richard Chamberlain series. Well-scripted and acted and with historical sets that stand alongside the best of cinema. Will there be a second series? See more Moussa M Oct 30 What I loved most in Shōgun is how everyone’s smiling while secretly planning to stab each other in the back. The whole game around who’ll take power from Toranaga is full of manipulation and fear, you never know who’s loyal. And Blackthorne, thrown into all this, has no choice but to play along just to survive. You can feel his confusion and how he slowly understands their world. Every scene feels heavy with tension, like one wrong move and it’s over. See more Jeremy F Oct 14 Truly one of the best written, scripted, acted, and filmed shows I have ever seen. The details and the performances in this show are incredible and have me falling in love with fuedal-era Japan as a setting. I feel like this era and location is so underutilized in films and television and this show makes me want to see more of it. See more Read all reviews
