Critics' reviews

"Age of Samurai has an international cast of academicians, some quite captivating, on hand to deliver a historically substantiated account of the samurai and their emerging nation. (...) dramatic re-creations follow it—often, in this case, to harrowing effect".

John Anderson: The Wall Street Journal
"Combining sturdy historical accounting with lavish re-enactment, Age of Samurai: Battle for Japan is a must-see in the genre (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"

Jonathon Wilson: Ready Steady Cut
