"SO. GOOD. The cinematography is outstanding, particularly very cool transitions. This show is dope afffffffff I don’t even think you need to be a fan of the genre to enjoy it. It is definitely not just about fight choreo (although that aspect is sick). The acting is nothing short of f*ing great, the story is really cool, and honestly I don’t even want to give y’all any backstory, just know these mfs KILLIN IT AND PLEASE WATCH"
"The costuming for the female characters was amazing. That’s the only good thing I have to say about this series. It’s formulaic to the point every single season, in fact almost every episode followed the exact same equation. The series was violent, misogynist and showed Chinese immigrants and women as only capable of being victims. awful. Yes I am painfully aware that history and present is racist, homophobic, misogynist, etc. This isn’t a documentary and doesn’t adhere to strict realism or some of the wounds suffered and fights had would have been immediately fatal. It IS possible to portray history without glorifying suffering. "
"A slow burn but pays off in a big way. I'm a sucker for a good martial arts show/movie and this is most definitely one of them. While the 1st season is a bit slow, the second season really picks up the pace as far as the action goes. Not the most superb acting but it's solid, so is the writing. The star of this show is the action and does a nice job telling the stories of how Asians struggled to fit in a prejudiced America in the late 1800s. "
"Easily one of the best shows on tv! It’s like Tarantino and Scorsese came together to direct a kung-fu/gangster combination of Gangs of New York and Enter the Badlands with fantastic fight choreography, general cinematography and performances all around. Not to mention a primo soundtrack and excellent writing derived from Bruce Lee himself. Don’t know how I just found out about this, but I hope a lot more people do so soon, because this could and should be among the next top tier HBO staples."
"Excellent series! Incredible acting and great action scenes. "
