Netflix's Blue Eye Samurai, starring Maya Erskine, is a bold & bloody animated revenge saga more than worth the watch. Read on for our review.
You can tell in every minute of Blue Eye Samurai that husband and wife duo Michael Green and Amber Noizumi have a vast knowledge of and passion for samurai films. The confidence and excitement radiate on screen throughout the first season's eight episodes. Blue Eye Samurai has echoes of Toshiya Fujita's jidaigeki film Lady Snowblood, Akira Kurosawa's revered masterpiece Seven Samurai, and more recent additions to the genre like Takashi Miike's 13 Assassins.
What Is 'Blue Eye Samurai' About? Blue Eye Samurai is set in 17th-century Japan and has been described as a cross between Kill Bill, and oddly enough, the 1983 Barbra Streisand film Yentl. During this time in the country’s history, nobody was allowed in or out, especially anybody who was not of Japanese descent. This has made the series’ heroine, Mizu an outcast.
'Blue Eye Samurai' Features a Fresh and Unique Animation Style One of the first things that stands out about Blue Eye Samurai is its vibrant and distinct animation style. It's like a mixture of Genndy Tartakovsky’s Samurai Jack with Arcane yet still something we haven’t seen on TV before. Not only does it perfectly fit the tone of the series, but it makes the series’ action that much more exciting.
'Blue Eye Samurai' Works Best When It's Being Ambitious Having worked on films like Blade Runner 2049 and Logan, Green has proven himself as more than capable of creating an epic scope, and he does it again with Blue Eye Samurai alongside Noizumi. The episodes all run at an exceptional and brisk pace, but the storytelling is never rushed. This is a fully realized story, with clear plans for more.
