This show isn't just the worst comic adaption but one of the most ridiculous shows i watched in quite some time. I couldn't care less about the whitewashing issue. Iron fist could be played by Luke cage, Jessica henwick and i still wouldn't care since the only thing that matters is acting here.
Finn Jones - Completely miscast as iron fist. He neither has the charisma nor is he believable as "on of the strongest martial artist". When he fights it looks like he is dancing. His acting mostly is just OK at best and at worst is like hodors lines. Also as a character danny comes of as a douche-bag. Am i supposed to root for this unlikable individual?
Coleen Wing - Jessica Henwick is rocking this characters. One of the few good thing on this show. Why couldn't she play iron fist? At least she knows how to act.
Meachum - The meachum family are extremely irritating and unlikable. Am i supposed to care for these unkind,selfish people?
Fight-scenes - Someone at marvel lauded this show as "the best fight scenes on television" before it aired. I have to say they are laughable bad. Its like watching people dance. Its almost as if they didn't care and used the pre-rehearsed scenes than the actual ones. Finn jones isn't selling it either.
Plot - The story is ridiculous boring and slow. Like in one instance danny is repetitively trying to prove he is danny rand but instead of proving to the person that he is danny (by recollecting important information from past) what does he do? He yells: im danny! its me! Not once but 100 times. DO we need to see a whole episode of danny in a mental hospital? Really? Wow.
Dialogue - The dialogue is one of the worst i have seen. At some point Coleen says things like: I must defend my honor! I guess the writers think we live in the 19th century.
Netflix/marvel partnership - This partnership has gone so long enough that they can do/dish out shows in any way the please. This show wont get cancelled since u can binge watch it. But my fear is that the producers don't ever try/care anymore as a result.
Summary - Boring,slow plot,weak/uninteresting characters,. This show belong on the CW with all the other campy,comical series. It seems to me that marvel quickly made a product without any care to it whatsoever. The fight scenes seem to be done by people who don't like martial arts at all so its no wonder to watch something that passionless. I bet some producers kid said: hey dad! u know it would be cool if u added these crazy kung-fu moves as titles for the episodes! Dad: Oh great idea son!
Just remember that we waited 2 years for daredevil because of this. 3 years for JJ.
