Iron Fist is a new series running on Netflix. It is about the son of a business man who's plane along with his parents disappears into the Himalaya Mountains. He and his parents are presumed dead. The Son Danny Rand (Finn Jones) reappears after 15 years. His back story is the usual mysterious training at a Buddhist monastery. He fights to take control of his fathers company, have you heard this before, yes I thought so, The story is true to the Marvel comic book the Iron fist is a white American. This has caused a certain amount of anger from the California PC crowd who feel the main character should been played by an Asian. If you are used to Hong Kong choreographed fight scenes prepare to be disappointed with Iron Fist. Danny Rand just does not come across as somebody you would expect to see coming out of a mysterious monastery in Himalayas after 15 years, no "Grasshopper" here.. The casting of the Danny Rand character is terrible. The action scenes suck, the story is something I have seen too many times, crooks,the female love interest, and the Madam Woo type bad lady. I almost switched channels when Danny fought a "Drunken Master" but when the Zombie appeared all I could do is groan and switch to something a whole lot better like a recent Steven Seagal action movie. at least it is only an hour and a half of suckage, and a more entertaining suckage at that. .
