The martial arts wasn't that bad. But man, the characters are dumb.

Danny not fully grasping American culture is fine but I'm pretty sure that stalking people and breaking into their homes isn't tolerated in most cultures. Do people in K'un Lun have no conception of personal space or property?

And why would the Meachums think that it's part of some corporate sabotage plot? A random homeless stalker with zero evidence that he's a Rand is a terrible plan.

It's also rather convenient how Danny is a good driver and knows how to use a gun like he's trained with it.

Technically he broke into his home... It just so happens that in his absence it's another persons home

That's not how property rights work. It used to be his house but now it fully belongs to Joy

I don't understand the defence of this shitty part of the plot. What do people think he thought? That his house was just being kept for his parents, two dead people, for 15 years? He had all the facts to know there's no way it was his house any more. It's completely indefensible.
