Daredevil Review
by Jerry Saravia (Rating: 2/4)
For some reason, the Marvel comic-book hero Daredevil has never been a favorite of mine. Maybe it is that red suit or the fact that he seemed more human than superhuman. Who knows. I still find Spider-Man to be the most effective superhero of all time...more

Daredevil Review
by Mark R. Leeper (Rating: 4/10)
CAPSULE: DAREDEVIL is an uninspired comic book superhero film that borrows everything, and invents and contributes almost nothing. It is an uninspiring actor playing an uninspired idea for a superhero in a familiar setting. It...more

Daredevil Review
by Jon Popick (Rating: 7/10)
Daredevil isn't an easy film for me to review, because I'm a huge fan of the comic book. The 20-year-old issues on which the film bases the bulk of its story are the very same issues that made me realize comics weren't just for kids. Thanks to Frank...more

Daredevil Review
by Ronald O. Christian (Rating: 2/4)
Ok, I have to disagree with (apparently) the majority of reviewers. Daredevil wasn't that bad. Perhaps it's because it's been a long time since I read the graphic novels, or perhaps it's because I haven't seen a single episode of whatever-the-name-is-of...more

I am not a comic book person. I have not read, bought or even looked at a comic book in over twenty years and even when I was interested in comics, the only ones I looked at were Archie, Richie Rich and Spider-Man. In fact, the only comics I have really...more

Daredevil Review
by Steve Rhodes (Rating: 1.5/4)
A colossal misfire, DAREDEVIL is the BATTLEFIELD EARTH of superhero films, which isn't surprising given its pairing of charisma-free actor Ben Affleck (PEARL HARBOR) with saccharine writer/director Mark Steven Johnson (SIMON BIRCH). DAREDEVIL wants...more
