IGN Review Summary:

FX's adaptation of Shogun is a great example of television production that uses a huge budget to create a beautifully realistic world while keeping the focus on complex characters and not letting the fancy special effects take over.

The performances are brilliant and the script is clever, weaving together humor and poetic drama, giving depth to both the main and supporting characters. This is a well-made limited series that seamlessly blends intrigue, humor, romance and action, and it will always surprise the audience until the perfect ending.
