Iron Fist…. More like Tin Fist! TV Review


By Corey Floyd


Hey, Folks! Now a about a week ago, I did a piece about Iron fist not being about appropriation. I was even looking forward to the series. I just finished it ………………. LAME! This was the Last piece of the puzzle before we get the Defenders on Netflix and it wasn’t great.

 Finn Jones previously known for playing Loras Tyrell on Game of thrones is our hero. I feel that this is not the role for him. His acting comes off too stiff. I don’t think he ever picked up the comic to study the character which would have been essential to capture this character correctly. 

The fight scenes were okay I guess.  IF DAREDEVIL DIDN’T DO IT BETTER. The fight scenes that don’t involve him went well. Any fight that involves him was stiff. You can see them counting their moves and because of his ridiculous hair style, his stuntman can only do so much. 

The supporting characters and antagonists were actually really good except for a few assassins but that might have been Jones fault for lack of physical prowess in choreography. The storyline isn’t that bad, but it is swiss cheese. I will not spoil it because you won’t remember it anyway I hope the Defenders will save Iron Fist or maybe they will recast him before they do a second season.

 (P.S Defenders just finished filming) The only thing that saved this was the supporting cast and the fact that I love Rosario Dawson. Iron Fist was an Iron Miss.
