SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Ilikehorrormovies I finally got the directors cut and it was 10 times better than the original version. I'd gave the original version a 7 out of 10 and the directors cut a 10 out of 10. I wish there was a sequel to this but it didn't happen which sucks. The directors cut aged well but the original version didn't aged well through out 14 years. I'd recommend this more then the original version.

jokerswild1 This is probably slightly better than its reputation, but not great by any means. Affleck's good in the title role, but Jennifer Garner doesn't really keep up with him, and her delivery of that one "Liar!" line when Daredevil tells her he didn't kill her father is just laughably awful. The villains are good though, Colin Farrell especially hits it right with his over the top portrayal of Bullseye. The soundtrack isn't very good either, although that Evanescense song is kind of a guilty pleasure, bombastic as it is. The director's cut is supposedly far superior, but really the only differences are some profanity and a subplot where Murdock defends Coolio, nothing that special really.

jo-hanna Re. Spoilers: A couple of very minor ones, but on the whole, I think I've avoided them.. I've been avoiding this, since I LOVE the series, and saw the poor rating of this. I also thought Ben Affleck is too 'pretty' for this role (and read that he wasn't the best Batman..).. However, I tried to bury my preconceived ideas, and therefore enjoyed it: I'm pleased I watched it, since I can't watch the first two series of DD AGAIN just yet! :o Overall I thought it was rather 'shallow', but then again, it must be hard to squeeze such a lot of plot/characters into a couple of hours of film. I prefer every character/actor in the series, but still, I did like this. Farrell was amusing, but Duncan is just a gentle giant in my mind ('John Coffey'): the size of him fits, but I kept expecting him to say something sweet or funny.. What I liked most of all, which I missed in the series, is getting a bit of 'visual' (yeah I know..) on how Matt 'sees'. You're left to imagine it for yourself in the series. I was very disappointed in the 'mustard' scene.. till he swapped them! lol. When watching something like this I try to be open-minded. Each 'medium' is different, and if you compare them, you're often disappointed. Of course, it is often nigh-on impossible NOT to compare them, but I find it helps to try ;) P.S: I've never read comics, and had barely even heard of Daredevil before I watched the series (this film is probably why I'd even heard of it at all..)

Fullstack4242 Yea yea i gave it a 10 and I stand by it and here is why. First I will tell you what Daredevil is not. It is not Avengers, Iron Man, Cap America or Flash. What it is a dark, gritty well written show that sticks to source material that has no comedy relief. The actors are not over hyped sex symbol types, they go full force with violence and dark themes. I want more shows like this. I am also a fan of Gotham and Watchmen. I initially did not give it a chance because I tried to sit through an episode of Flash and thought it was similar. After a few friends with similar taste than mine told me DD is different I gave it a shot and I am so hooked I am itching for more. I am delighted show show is successful so hopefully movie and TV writers will finally make real comic book movies and shows. Avengers, Cap America and Iron Man movies make me hurl. Introducing The Punisher was golden, Elektra is awesome, I just love the morbid Church undertones and how each episode does not hold back. I am just so sick of the "safe" family fun theme type shows. I swear if I see a Marvel flick on a McCrap ad I wont bother. I know i represent a smaller group but us REAL comic fans deserve the darker themes from source material. It us who took our allowance, min wage earning, birthday money to buy the comic books and keep buying them. We do not deserve so see a half hearted Hollywood version that parents would take their kids to. I do not mind leaving them at home! I am still waiting for an R rated mutant universe flick....... BRING IT ON !!!!
