As another in the Penny Dreadful franchise, this series captures the film noir of the period in its style. Nathan Lane carries the show. His depiction of a decent detective in a racially inflamed world has all the right shades of sensitivity and resolve. The series is pertinent today with US torn by racial profiling.

A great samurai movie. Pretty close to the style of real samurai culture. A little westernized with some characters. The build was believable and the battle scene intense. Good movie to fill in a night, but not quite The 7 Samurai.
