Critic Reviews

Alison Herman

Feb 8, 2024

The series remains one of the most finely rendered urban portraits on TV, a crime drama that resists sensationalism in favor of a more patient and character-forward approach. Read full review

The Daily Beast Nick Schager

Feb 1, 2024

Once again led by the charismatic duo of Ansel Elgort and Ken Watanabe as unlikely partners in a war nobody appears capable of winning, it remains one of the most compelling, and underrated, shows on television. Read full review

IndieWire Ben Travers

Feb 8, 2024

“Tokyo Vice” relies on its actors to bring humanity to their characters’ unremitting contradictions as much as it depends on its directors to draw out the series’ rigorous style. Mann, who helmed the pilot, does not return for Season 2 (aside from his executive producer title), but Alan Poul (“Six Feet Under,” “The Eddy”), Josef Kubota Wladyka (“The Terror” Season 2), Takeshi Fukunaga (FX’s upcoming epic “Shōgun”), and others immerse us in an expansive vision of 1999-era Japan.

Collider Robert Brian Taylor

Feb 1, 2024

The first five installments of the 10-episode season provided for review include a huge action set piece that takes a major player off the board and shakes up the show's universe in a way that propels the season to what should be an exciting second half. Read full review

Tokyo Vice is stylish, mysterious, and full of powerful acting turns that put a sharp edge on its depiction of the places where crime and violence intersect with tradition and ambition. Read full review

Kyle Mullin

Feb 12, 2024

This season of the uneven but unique and compelling Far East crime saga starts off stronger than the series’ first season. Read full review

While the characters have all been given more care, the main problem with “Tokyo Vice” still stands: the show doesn't know what it wants to be. Read full review
