The show so far simply isn't very good.  I've yet to be given a reason to care about the outcome of Danny's spat with his siblings.  They've spent three episodes having repetitive conversations about whether or not Danny is Danny.  This could have and should have been resolved in the first episode.  The acting is hit or miss, and the show is full of cliches.  *spoilers* The prodigal son returning to his business after an enlightening experience (Batman Iron Man), Danny giving Colleen casual advice as he casually blocks her attacks (Morpheus, Affleck Daredevil) , the crowd jeering at the small seemingly weak fighter who we know is going to take out the musclebound jerk off.  (Etc etc.  The generic far east wisdom Danny spouts is hackneyed regardless of whether it's coming from a white man or an asian man.

Boring meandering and repetitive plot, flat characters with vague motivations, and an overall lack of stakes.  It's a boring show so far.  What has the world come to when we can't hate a show starring white people for sucking?

because we've seen the hand is evil in Daredevil and Danny mentions in episode 2 he's the sworn enemy of them and has to defend heaven's city.  That's a pretty major concern.

Why is that a major concern?  Why do I give a shit about what happens to heaven's city? 

hey heaven is important!  We're all screwed if the hand wins!

I finished the show yesterday and I gotta say as a whole I think it was alright. Wasn't great by any means, but not nearly as horrible as some people said. Just alright, it's decent.

It has a lot of really dumb moments though where it seems like they just ignored any sort of logic and just did what they did anyway to continue the plot. Some of the dialogue is really cringey and feels out of place. For a show about the Iron Fist it feels like the Iron Fist was barely used at all. Also towards the later half of the season it felt like so many things were thrown at the wall to see what sticks and it felt like so many random things were happening all of a sudden. It felt like it losts it sense of direction and was trying to do too many different things all of a sudden.

For example (spoiler): Out of nowhere at the end they hint that Joy is going to become a villian? What the fuck, that's out of nowhere and had no build up at all to try to hint that at the end.

I feel like Danny had no personality at a lot of times and just said things most of the time in the same sort of quiet tone of voice with no emotion to it. I'm not sure whether this is the actor's fault or whether it was just the script he was given and couldn't do much with it, but come on dude, fucking have some fun every now and then. Crack a joke. Even in parts where it's meant to be serious with what he's dealing with it seems like he just kind of goes about it in the same kind of attitude. I don't know how to describe it, hopefully in the Defenders he's able to have more of a personality. 

I didn't think the fight scenes were that bad. I know they were a criticism a lot of people mentioned about the show. 

Overall i'd say it's like a 6/10. It's decent, could have been much easily better though.

I thought it was decent. Not horrible by any means. I thought it was better than Luke cage which was extremely boring. If there's anything to complain about it'd have to be the fight scenes. They were weak. Overall decent, out of all the shows so far is put it above Luke cage only.



Finished watching it. The show gets progressively worse in the later half. I didn't mind the slow start in the first three episodes like some others.

FloatingWaffles above covered above how i feel about it too. Enjoyable for those of us who like these kind of shows and are already invested in the universe but very average for rest of the people.
