Description: For Daredevil, justice is blind, and for the guilty…there's hell to pay! Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner ignite dangerous sparks and nonstop thrills in this "dazzling action-adventure" (The Film Journal) about the newest breed of superhero. By day, blind attorney Matt Murdock (Affleck) toils for justice in Hell's Kitchen. By night, he's Daredevil, The Man Without Fear - a powerful, masked vigilante stalking the dark streets with an uncanny "radar sense" that allows him to "see" with superhuman capabilities. But when the love of his life, fiery Elektra Natchios (Garner), is targeted by New York City's ruthless Kingpin of crime (Michael Clarke Duncan) and his deadly assassin Bullseye (Colin Farrell), Daredevil may be about to meet his match.
Amazon.com: Darker than its popular comic-book predecessor Spider-Man, the $80 million extravaganza Daredevil was packaged for maximum global appeal, its juvenile plot beginning when 12-year-old Matt Murdock is accidentally blinded shortly before his father is murdered. Later an adult attorney in New York's Hell's Kitchen, Murdock (Ben Affleck) uses his remaining, superenhanced senses to battle crime as Daredevil, the masked and vengeful "man without fear," pitted against dominant criminal Kingpin (Michael Clarke Duncan) and the psychotic Bullseye (Colin Farrell), who can turn almost anything into a deadly projectile. Daredevil is well matched with the dynamic Elektra (Jennifer Garner), but their teaming is as shallow as the movie itself, which is peppered with Marvel trivia and cameo appearances (creator Stan Lee, Clerks director and Daredevil devotee Kevin Smith) and enough computer-assisted stuntwork to give Spidey a run for his money. This is Hollywood product at its most lavishly vacuous; die-hard fans will argue its merits while its red-leathered hero swoops and zooms toward a sequel. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - Not Quite A Bullseye
There are some good things about this show, and some bad things. It is a dark movie, as it should be, being that Daredevil is a dark character. Collin Farrel was absolutely perfect as Bullseye. His ... Read More

This film didn't have much of a chance when it came out. Fans of the comic were disdainful of the casting choices, Ben Affleck was in a paparazzi mess with J-Lo, the theatrical cut was hacked up to appeal ... Read More
Rating: - Director Knows Best
Director Mark Steven Johnson truly explores the shadowy aspects of justice and vigilantism in the additional 30 minutes added to the film, along with some other tweaks.
Rating: - Sound that Shakes the Devil
If you are looking for 'earthquake' shaking bass, then get this movie. If your system can handle it this is a "DEMO"--show off your system quality soundtrack. If one complains that the bass is "boomy" it is ... Read More
Rating: - What a tremendous disapointment!
There are rumors circulating that the director's cut of Daredevil is much better than the theatrical version. Further, they say this fixes many problems in the movie. The theatrical version was poor because ... Read More
