Daredevil (2015)
After three seasons I can say with a clear conscience that this TV show (even though it is considered by many to be one of the best collaborations between Marvel and Netflix) is not worth more than 3 stars. The atmosphere resembles Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, some action sequences prove that the creators are action movie lovers but overall, the show is very repetitive and the arrival of Punisher and Electra does nothing to salvage that. The first season introduced me into the world of the surprisingly not entirely heroic Daredevil, introduced a decent opponent Fisk but failed to make me connect to the main characters. The whole supernatural feel stems from the fact that Daredevil is blind and this blindness caused his other senses develop to the maximum. Okay, so the premise is pretty good. The second season brings Punisher and Electra back to the game. They opened Daredevil’s eyes a little bit but overall in the story they were pretty useless. The third season returns to the first season and renews fight with Fisk who was Daredevil’s only proper adversary, the show ended more or less in the place where it started. The only thing that left me with some kind of impression was the series of actional sequences, which saved the individual episodes many times. Not only were they very well filmed but they also looked well executed choreography-wise, and a lot of contemporary action movies could envy Daredevil in this respect. The rest, however, was mediocre.
