Daredevil has a brooding dark and dank air about it, much like Batman. That's about the only element that lends the movie any character.

From start to finish, the film is death-ridden and employs overamplified sound to pump up its many pornographic images.

It isn't a great film, or even a greatly original one. Still, it has many grace notes, and interesting oddities.

Worst of all is the finale, which features a protracted duel with villain Bullseye, utilizing copious amounts of bad CG that cheapens the choreography and any potential for a satisfying demise.
