It sucked. I mean a blind guy with ultrasonic hearing does the most logical thing: grabs a stick and starts jumping off buildings and beating bad guys.

As opposed to the other super heroes who's stories make much more sense:
  • Scrawny high school geek gets bit by radiactive spider, can crawl up walls and sense danger
  • Scrawny post-grad geek gets nuked and turns green when angry
  • Young boy is lured into abandoned subway and is bestowed with magical powers
  • Amazon woman leaves secluded island to join the world of man, has invisible plane
  • Guy drinks too much, has heart attack, builds cool suit
😉
 
Anyone who doesn't "get" the point of these comic book movies, or superheroes in general, is missing out on the fundamental reason why they exist in the first place. It's the manifestation of every man's dream -- to be, well, MORE than everyone else -- more intelligent, more powerful, etc. The advent of the superhero has very deep philosophical and psychological roots, and it's as much a part of american culture as folk tales are to native americans, etc.

I see your point amnesiac but X-Men was done nicely, DD was a waste of my time and film IMO :beer:

Yep, I "get" the superhero movies and I "want" to enjoy em all. Daredevil was just awful. You knew it was going to be bad when they gave it the release slot it had. 😉

Just be thankful you didn't watch the 8 hours or whatever of extras they stuck on that disc 😛

Well, yeah. DD was worth ONE watch at most but that's it.

I was referring to Coldfusion178's post earlier.

Um. Wasn't this already evident before you decided to watch the movie? (assuming you did)

I thought the movie was ok. Nothing amazing.

as did many many others🙁 the level of incompetence displayed in the creation of this disaster is rather incredible. inability to tell story, inability to do anything original, inability to film a fight scene compentently etc. i went from indifferent to affleck to total hatred of affleck for subjecting me to this drivel. everything was unbelievable his powers were feeble and unbelievable from the film. with other super heros their powers make sense, his do not in the slightest, esp the way they are shown. with such sh*tty vision he should be really scared of moving around.

not to mention.. worst lawyer ever. i've heard better arguements on ally mcbeal.

film insults your intellgence at every chance.
