Iron Fist Season 1 Episode 10 Review – ‘Black Tiger Steals Heart’
Shaun Munro reviews the tenth episode of Iron Fist… Iron Fist enters its final stretch with more barmy revelations, though they at least feel decidedly more pared-down and reined-in than episode nine’s ludicrous, divisive resurrection of Harold. For all its flaws, “Black Tiger Steals Heart” is certainly full of juicy revelations. We learn much more about Colleen’s […]

Iron Fist Season 1 Episode 9 Review – ‘The Mistress of All Agonies’

Iron Fist Season 1 Episode 8 Review – ‘The Blessing of Many Fractures’
Shaun Munro reviews the eighth episode of Iron Fist… At one point in Iron Fist‘s eighth episode, Ward comically laments to Joy, “It’s cliche!

Legion Season 1 Episode 7 Review – ‘Chapter Seven’
Rachel Bellwoar reviews the seventh episode of Legion… Thinking back on when Legion started, how is it that we’ve reached a point in the show where we can say ‘we get it already. Enough with the clarification?’ Syd interrupts Cary’s explanation of the plan because she figured it out for herself. A lot of ‘Chapter 7’ could be interrupted this way […]
Iron Fist Season 1 Episode 7 Review – ‘Felling Tree with Roots’
Shaun Munro reviews the seventh episode of Iron Fist… We’ve now reached the mid-way point in Iron Fist‘s run, bringing to an end the batch of episodes that were screened to critics ahead of release day.
