So, Daredevil.

Netflix's Daredevil has been out for a few days now. I'm almost done watching it. It's....good. It's certainly better than Ben Affleck's piece of shit portrayal of the character. The opening scene reminds me a lot of Hannibal. [spoiler]I really love Vincent D'Onofrio's portrayal of The Kingpin. He seems calm at first, and his rousing speeches almost makes you believe he's a sympathetic character. But then....he goes and decapitates a Russian mob boss with his SUV's passenger side door. -blam!-ing brutal. And you never know when it's coming! Charlie Cox makes a WONDERFUL Matt Murdock, but when he puts on a mask.... he's just kinda.... shitty? It's an origin story and all that and he's not quite a super hero yet. Fine. I get that. But he's constantly getting the shit kicked out of him! It gets tiresome to watch after 11 episodes. I know he doesn't have super powers like Hulk or Thor but for -blam!-s sake it took him 11 episodes to say "Gee... maybe I should get body armor instead of wearing black sports apparel?" -sigh- Other than some of those minor gripes, it's a solid start to what will undoubtedly become a great series. It finally does Daredevil justice. [/spoiler] What does The Flood think about it?

  • I just finished this last night and I think it's my favorite Marvel property beside Winter Soldier. Excellently done. All the right feels. Not a huge fan of the costumes but the action was awesome. Esp the continuous shot fight scene.
