Summary: I liked it!
Review: A little too dark, but great action and great plot. Excellent actors and excellent effects! I was looking forward to it and it was satisfying. I loved the soundtrack! This movie may be a little dark, but it had some funny parts as well. All in all, this is a fabulous DVD!

Summary: Bad script but still turns out alright
Review: Daredevil is a movie that is just alright! It's no way near Spider-Man or X-Men 2! Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner do a very good job, it's too bad they didn't have a good script to go with their acting. The script was all over the place, that was the problem. It was like they didn't know what to do with the movie. They were just trying to get it out in a hurry so they made it [poorly]. This Movie could have been a lot better! Still, it's an alright movie, but your better off just seeing Spider-Man! Spider-Man is sooooo much better than this movie by far!

Summary: Affleck can make any movie sbad
Review: This had so much promise. Daredevil was one of the least 'super' of all the superheroes that Marvel comics stamped their seal of approval on. He was a troubled man with a troubled past and not much going for him other than his mind (hell the guy was a lawyer) and a hot babe in Elecktra Nachios.
So what do they do? They go out and hire pretty boy, Ben Affleck to play this role.
Jennifer Garner as Elecktra. GEE DO YOU THINK SHE GOT THE ROLE BECAUSE SHE'S HOT? 'Nuff said.Colin Farrell was the main highlight (not much competition) of this flick. He was unstable and deadly. Michael Clarke Duncan was a bad choice for Kingpin. Although he's a good actor, Kingpin IS NOT BLACK. Sorry, folks, but he just wasn't convincing in this role.
The plot was promising, especially at the beginning, but the action sequences just don't compare to the Matrix/Star Wars/Lord Of the Rings/Hulk movies as of late.
Ben Affleck has a hot girlfriend, but that's about it. They should have picked someone else to play this role.
Are they serious about Elecktra getting her own spin off movie???????

Summary: The Man Without Fear Is The Man With A Great Movie!
Review: Okay, first things first. This movie was great. There is no going around that. You have to admit it. It was really great! The movie stays very true to the comic books. As a Marvel comics fan, who has recieved these comics as a pass-me -down from my dad, I have to say Daredevil is one of the best adaptations of a comic book based film. The performances from Affleck and Garner were good, but the real performance that really got me going was Farell's Bullseye, who totally enhanced the acting among everyone else. The scenery was spot-on and matched Hell's Kitchen perfectly. The modern adaptation of the costumes and use of modern music also made an already good film great. The special effects were just enough and just right to blow away everyone in the cinema. The story line was the perfect blend of all DD comic runs that featured Daredevil's origins to the encounters with his most notorious villans and his frist real lover, Elektra. When you mix all of these elements together (good-looking, talented actors, amazing scenery, mind-blowing effects, a spellbinding plot...shall I keep going or do you get the point?), you get a great movie! Now we get to what the critics said about our Man Without Fear. Critics said the movie was too dark. My answer is DUH! It needs to be dark; Daredevil serves blind justice to avenge the defenseless by any means out of his anger at his father's needless murder. Critics also said the acting was "panned". Well, let me see, it IS an action film, where the main character is SUPPOSED to be a hesitant person and minimize contact with others. The emotion and acting was spot on through everyone's interaction with Daredevil. Other than being perhaps too short a film, it was great. It was #1 in the Box Office for two weeks, so all those people can't be wrong, can they? This film is deserving of anyones purchase and all that can be said is long live DD and may an even better sequel follow!

Summary: How to I loathe thee...
Review: Daredevil is the most staggeringly awful movie I have seen in a very, very long time. And I saw Crossroads . (please don't ask why) I'll spare you the fan-boy rhetoric about how it did not live up to the comic and all that and get right to it. Every single aspect of this film is tragic. The direction was such that one might believe Mark Steven Johnson is himself blind. The acting was laughable, with the exception of Colin Farrel, and the see-gee-eye was par at best. But what really struck me was the writing. I once met a rabid squirrel with seven different brain disorders who could have put together a better story than this. And the dialogue had to have been written by a handicapable third grader. It had to. There is no excuse for this movie. If you haven't already made the mistake, please do not see it. Please. Just run, man. Run far and run fast. And, if, while you're running, you see Mark Steven Johnson, smack him for me. Trust me, he deserves it.

Summary: Under-rated...
Review: I think this movie got alot less credit then what it really deserved. I think people just didn't like it as much because DareDevil wasn't the kind of super hero with the fancy powers or gizmos. In my opinion it was better than I actually thought it would be. Before seeing X2 this was the best marvel super-hero movie yet. I think that the cast really pulled through with their characters, and the DareDevil costume was done really well. *Conclusion* This was a really good movie in my opinion and I don't care what other people say about it, it's still one of my favorites.

Summary: A brilliant adaptation!!!
Review: People that don't understand this movie don't understand Daredevil. Even with the (brave) casting of Michael Clark Duncan as the Kingpin (a white character) this remains the most true of all the comic book adaptations. I love this movie and will recommend it to all of my friends, comic book afficionados or not!!

Summary: Great movie... for the right audience.
Review: The problem with Daredevil was quite simply its base material. It wasn't that Mark Steven Johnson wasn't loyal to it or just made a bad movie, but it was the relative mediocrity/obscurity of the Daredevil comic book. For the fans of Daredevil, myself included, this movie was perfect. It plays exactly like an issue of the comic book. Exactly. In fact, Mark Steven Johnson set up many of the movie's scenes to look exactly like panels from the comic. My contention is that Daredevil's script was somewhat intentionally written with cliches, because it is written much like an issue of Daredevil. Unfortunately, like the comic book, the movie is now experiencing obscurity. Did you ever wonder why you'd never heard about the Daredevil sueprhero? Well, now you know after seeing this movie. Rest assured, though, if you have an appreciation for comic book superheroes, you'll find the intrigue of Daredevil. I find the conflict of his blindness and his super powers an interesting angle, but it is not enough to maintain the movie for those who do not care so much about the hero. The action is great, the effects are pretty good, and the actors are excellent. Particularly Colin Farrell, who pulls off a perfect, and especially entertaining version of Bullseye. I can't guarentee you will like this movie, but I will tell you that it is hit or miss, so give it a shot, you might enjoy it.

Summary: The Batman and Robin of Marvel Movies....
Review: Did Johnson and the film makers look to Batman and Robin for some guide to do this movie. They must have, because this movie has a lot of big name stars running around in long underwear for a two hour movie that looks like a cheesy comic book story. It strikes out in almost every department; Cast, script, production design, music, costumes, making comic book references to various creators who now work at Marvel and have turned in into a junk magazine company which has nothing to do with the "real" Marvel Universe as created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. That won't stop them making Daredevil II or Elektra (which maybe they can do something better with), it's enough to make you root for DC to get more of their characters made as movies.
