DCfan I saw this movie before my summer holidays finished and boy this movie was just bad.The acting, however, was good but I just found the actual movie just boring and uninteresting.The movie just kicks off straight away in the fight scene before his fight with The Kingpin or rather Bullseye. The film is just bazaar because Matt Murdock's dad get's killed, Bullseye kills Electraza's dad but Daredevil gets the blame, but bullseye kills her too. But the film is cleaver on some parts like in the final fight. Ben Affleck was good as Daredevil but he is in his right shoes now as Batman and Micheal Clarke Duncan RIP he was good as well as Kingpin.

xgray-03873 Well, after watching the director's cut of the 2003 Daredevil movie, I would have to say that it's not really a masterpiece, but I will say that it's better than the theatrical cut. But, it's not the worst superhero movie that I've ever seen. That honor belongs to Catwoman (2004), X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Superman III & IV and The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Now with that being said, as far as movie casting goes in a superhero film such as Daredevil, I have to say that Jennifer Garner is a terrible choice for the role of Elektra Natchios. Not once did I actually believe that she was the famous ninja assassin from the Daredevil comics that single-handed took out the Hand. All I saw was Jennifer Garner in a black leather corset playing with ninja weapons and I actually laughed at her death scene at the hands of Colin Farrell's Bull's-Eye. The rest of the cast is alright. The late Michael Clarke Duncan as the Kingpin was amazing, Colin Farrell was a hoot as Bull's-Eye. But, I think Ben Affleck should've just stuck with playing Batman, instead of Daredevil. This was not an easy role for him at all.Overall, I'd highly recommend the Director's Cut of the 2003 Daredevil movie over the Theatrical Cut. It's definitely worth the watch. Oh, and I forgot! The director's cut features a subplot with Coolio's character being framed by the Kingpin and it is hilarious.

Tweekums Growing up in Hell's Kitchen Matt Murdock was taught to avoid fights by his father, a washed up boxer who is working as an enforcer for a local mobster. When Matt learns the truth about what his father does he runs off and is involved in an accident; toxic watched is splashed in his eyes; he is instantly blinded but as a side effect his other senses are drastically improved; notably his hearing which is now so acute that he can use it like sonar! He uses these skills to train himself to fight for justice.Grown up he has become a lawyer who represents the innocent by day and takes vengeance against those who have escaped justice by night in the guise of Daredevil; a masked avenger. His ultimate goal is to discover the identity of 'King Pin' a notorious, almost legendary, crime lord who is behind most of the crime in the area. While doing this he meets and falls in love with Elektra Natchios, the daughter of a businessman who has dealings with King Pin, who is trained in martial arts to a level that matches his own skills. King Pin brings assassin 'Bullseye' into the country to eliminate Elektra's father when he tries to end their dealings. The events that follow will turn Elektra against Daredevil before he can finally confront King Pin.While this isn't one of the best superhero movies it is rather fun. Ben Affleck does a solid enough job in the lead role; especially when in the 'Matt Murdock' persona… when he is in the Daredevil costume he is still entertaining but is mostly involved in action rather than things that show his character's development. Jenifer Garner is equally impressive as Elektra; it helps that her character gets stuck into the action rather than being a stereotypical damsel in distress. Michael Clarke Duncan is suitably imposing as King Pin and I liked Joe Pantoliano's performance as a journalist obsessed with the Daredevil; it was fun seeing him play somebody good for a change. I was less convinced by Colin Farrell as Bullseye; this was largely down to his ridiculous appearance… a shaved head with a target on his forehead; something that probably looked cool in the original comic but here looked a bit too silly rather than scary. The overall story is entertaining and the action is plentiful and exciting. Overall I wouldn't say this is a must see film but it is worth checking out if you are a fan of the superhero genre.

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..)
