Marvel's The Defenders 2017

I'd say it was a fun binge watch but overall was kinda underwhelming. Daredevil, Luke Cage and Jessica have spectacular chemistry. Iron Fist is still really annoying and has no character development whatsoever. The action scenes were fine in my opinion. Daredevil still has the best fight choreography hands down. The back and forth between Matt and Jess is easily the most entertaining part of the show. But the main issue I have with these Marvel Netflix shows is the convoluted, unfocused and messy plots. The payoff in all these shows are kinda underwhelming. The Hand wasn't really threatening, they came off as kinda lame and unrealistic. The five fingers of the hand had no purpose whatsoever and the character of Alexandra was highly under-utilised and left off. Elektra storyline felt rushed, but her chemistry with Matt was off the charts as always. Love the characters but really hope they go back to the drawing board to focus on their antagonists and make their storylines more compact and focused. Overall, I was satisfied and had fun.
