    The winning Samurai has lots of action, and is generously peppered with comedic asides. [5 Sep 2008, p.70]

    Its newest show, Samurai Girl, is an action-packed, three-night martial arts miniseries that introduces girls to the world of Asian action flicks.
  3. It's not perfect, but it certainly is different, so why not just enjoy the ride?

    It needs a lot more moments like the one when the samurai girl bursts through a door to find her chauffeur on the verge of disemboweling himself. “Seriously?” she asks, eyeing the knife in his hands. “Seppuku?”

    I love this show!!! I hope there will be a season two so that I can find out what happens next. I am waiting for Heaven and Jake to meet again and to see what adventure they fall into next. Expand

    My family sat down and watched the entire 3 episodes on Sunday and at the end ....well we just wanted more! Surie it's not 100% yet, but quite frankly with all the poor selection of TV series out there, it's kinda nice to have something creative and entertaining like this. We all hope it will continue to be a series. Expand

    The movie overall was awesome. The ending was the worst I've see.
