The imagination never flags in Episodes XIV-XXVI of Samurai Jack, Genndy Tartakovsky's Emmy-winning comedy-adventure. The artists skillfully employ design, color, and pattern to compliment the directors' use of deft cutting and split screen imagery. The resulting visuals are sharp, fresh, and appealing.
As Jack continues his quest to return to the past and destroy the evil shape-shifter Aku, the tone of the adventures shifts from dramatic to farcical and back again. In Episode XX, Jack proves his determination by climbing treacherous Mount Fatoom with three highly trained monks. The clerical trio consists of little more than pentagons with stylized faces, but their geometric simplicity plays effectively against the jagged facets of the mountain. The warriors who battle mechanical minotaurs in Episode XXV reflect the look of Greek vase paintings, filtered through the work of modern illustrators and graphic novelists. In lighter moments, Jack helps the Scotsman rescue his battleaxe of a bride from a nest of demons in Episode XVII, then plunges down a rabbit hole to visit a neon-bright Wonderland in Episode XXIV. That adventure reaches new heights of absurdity when Jack appears in drag as a princess.
The picaresque blend of comedy and adventure makes Samurai Jack one of the most significant cartoon series of recent years. Extras include a biography-scrapbook of Tartakovsky, a partial pitch for Episode XVII and a creators' commentary for Episode XXV. (Unrated, suitable for ages 10 and older: stylized violence, minor gross humor) --Charles Solomon

The first season of Samurai Jack was amazing, It had it's action episodes and it's more funny ones. But this season seems to just be more on the comical side, don't get me wrong, it still has its complete action episodes, like "Jack and The Hunters" and "Jack and the Smack Back" But theirs a lot more of "comical" episodes, like "Jack and The Farting Dragon," "Jack Is Naked," and "Jack's Sandals" but this season is probably the weakest one for Samurai Jack. It's still a great season, just the weaker ... Read More

I am a grown-up animation enthusiast, and quite a fan of Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Lab, Samurai Jack, Foster's Home and other cartoons with a cool retro-influenced design (50-60's), but this second season of Samurai Jack was a big letdown for me.
Both graphically and story-wise everything seems much poorer, less surprising and less fun, less researched than on the first season.
If you're a fan go ahead, this is still above average, but if you're looking for really outstanding stuff ... Read More

IMHO, the drama that sells the whole DVD is the episode where Aku creates horrific assasin robots in an attempt to defeat Jack. The robots indiscriminately massacre the innocent and helpless to leave a trail of butchery that will lead jack to them. Due to it being on Cartoon Network, the worst gore scenes, like a city of impaled beings, were robots, but it still has the effect.
The tribute to the soon to be made into a movie "300" by Frank Miller is a close second. And there's humor, the ... Read More

Being an ardent fan of Samurai Jack I couldn't wait for Season 2's DVD release!!! I was not disappointed in the least by the innovative artwork and spirit of adventure that the creators have continued with this incredible series!!! I'm blown away by each episode, no matter the content or storyline! Jack rocks!!
