The Brothers Sun on Netflix

Michelle Yeoh does a bang up job in this eight parter that seems to be hoping for a return given the after credits scene. Drama, Kung Fu and some LOL comedy made it an enjoyable watch for me. And don't get me started on the best nod to Jurassic Park of the year.

Not really my cup of tea. My daughter enjoyed it. Maybe I'll give it another shot.

I liked it at the start but then the “action” became too repetitive. The humor and cultural references were fun while it lasted.

I may give it another try later.
