Its official DareDevil is a...

Its a bust...LoL, they said the FX were laughable, the dialogue was cheesy, and the acting excluding Farrel, and Gardner was pretty bad...Sad...

Really? Hmmm....I thought it looked pretty good on the teasers they show on tv. Maybe it's just that, one of those movies that they took the 3 or 4 good scenes out of it and made them into the teaser, then the rest of the movie blows. Very sad if that's true.

If it's that bad, then how did it get rated 3 stars?

[sam21]

I don't think I can name a superhero movie/show/comic book where the dialogue isn't cheesy except for maybe the Tick.

Well, Im just repeating what I saw at ew.com, but I kind of always knew it was gonna bust, it reminded me of the fighting scenes from charly angels...you could practically see the wires they are on...thats not cool...

I saw it last night. It was OK. Not great, but OK. Actually, nobody could do much with the dialog. Jennifer Garner was the best "actor" in the movie. She also had the best part and the best lines. Ferrel's character, bullseye, was about as good as a comic book villian gets. He has one line when he is talking to his bad guy boss, Kingpin, after his first encounter with DareDevil that is priceless. Kingpin asks him what he thinks about DareDevil or what he needs or something like that. And he responds "I need my own costume." Afflect was saddled with some really bad dialog. It wasn't his fault. Jack Nickelson couldn't have done anything with that dialog. The FX involved a lot of "flying" human scenes, as in crouching tiger, but not as well done.

All in all the character DareDevil is a sort of redone early Batman in the sense that he is continually fighting the suspicion that he the difference between him and the bad guys is not as great as the difference between him and ordinary folks. He keeps telling people that he is one of the good guys. He is clealy trying to convince himself more than the other folks. The meeting of DareDevil and Elektra and the subsequent romance is electric. The best part of the movie.
