It was ok but it wasn't amazing, which is what you expect with a Marvel TV series these days. There's nothing particularly special about Iron Fist, the fight scenes are good but watching it after Daredevil makes it look a little tame.

The characters aren't as engaging as they are in Jessica Jones (and following the brilliance of Kilgrave and Wilson Fisk the bad guys aren't looking nearly as bad) but they're largely likeable. Colleen Wing is a great character and I look forward to learning more about her in the future.

Another disappointment is the way Claire Temple's character has played out. It's actually understandable given everything she's gone through in the other shows but she's the only one who's stretched across all shows so there's been an investment in her character and it's a shame that she's pretty hard-hearted, brash and aggressive in Iron First.

Anyway, for all of that the show is pretty good, they story is decent and you want to know what's going to happen next. It's also really nice to be learning more about the hand after they were introduced in Daredevil and there's even the return of Madame Gao, who's just plain awesome.

It's worth watching to swot up on everything before The Defenders turns up later this month.

For me the first series of Daredevil dipped somewhat in the middle from an awesome beginning and an exciting climax. That is not the case in the second series. The appearance, and numerous reappearances of is-he-a-goody-or-a-baddy Frank Castle (the Punisher) keeps the episodes fresh, despite the somewhat tedious will they/won't they relationship between Matt and Foggy.
The development of Frank Castle's back story and the reason behind his crusade is a rich vein running through the whole series, coming to a satisfying conclusion.

Brilliant acting
Krysten Ritter and David Tennant
Another brilliant Marvel TV series
Jessica Jones follows Daredevil as another Netflix original about a non-mainstream Marvel superhero. It also follows the same path that brings out the dark and gritty side of the Marvel universe. Not everything is black and white here, there's a lot of grey area and as a result the series poses a lot of questions you wouldn't get in the films.

Krysten Ritter is brilliant as Jones and is supported by a brilliant cast that includes David Tennant as the increasingly disturbing Kilgrave.
