Review of Daredevil (2003) by Marcus C — 26 Jun 2012
One of Marvel's earlier and much more clumsy attempts of establishing their super heroes in the movie world. There are some great ideas in this, particularly the visualization of Daredevil's senses.
The soundtrack is pretty cool too. Things already start to get messy with the casting. Affleck does not work as Murdock and Farrell is hopelessly overacting as opponent Bullseye. Some of the action scenes are good, others are so clearly computer generated that they take some of the illusion away.
Jon Favreau brings some direly needed humor into the film that is otherwise taking itself way too seriously. So, they wanted to reboot this one, and they will, the only way from here would be up. Make it so.
