im sorry but if youre going to do a comic book movie, TRY to stay as CLOSE to the origin of the story as possible..no we DONT need every damn thing from particular arc in the series, but some things would be needed in order to establish the story of the film for folk who dont know who daredevil is..
issues with the film: ben affleck SUCKS--why him of all people?
elektra: in the comic series, she and matt knew each othe rin college. why cut all that out and do it the way it was done in the movie? if they had alluded to their relationship in college, it would have made elektra's entrance WAY morebelievable AND...it would have properly explained her jumping his bones within the first few scenes they had together. sidenote: ben affleck and jen garner have NO chemistry...and itsnot her. ben just SUCKS as a romantic lead PERIOD. furthermore, elektra was a ninja...AND an assassin. why didnt they just follow that storyline for her instead of the one she got in the film? and her her dad wasnt even WORKING with Kingpin in the comics...
Bullseye: um...since when did he have superhuman strength? and bullseye never dies...in the comic, daredevil damn near beats bullseye to death for killing elektra and he ends up in the hospital. fuckers..totally kills colin coming back for the sequel.
bullseye and eletkra's battle: chica was a hardcore ninja. she would NOT have been laid out like that in 10 seconds..sheesh. bullseye did kill her--but NOT how it was written in the film.
if they had kept some of the character's respective backstories when writing this film, it would have been decent.
yet you get this piece of shit...
the ending: wack...so now elektra, after getting a sai shoved through her body survives that to leave matt a charm with braille inscriptions? come the fucck on....
the only GOOD things about the film: Colin Farrell, Jennifer Garnder, Michael Clarke Duncan..virtually EVERYONE BUT Ben Affleck!
such a waste of my money...and i now SEE why HALF of the audience the theatre before it was over when i saw it last night.
they should even MAKE an elektra spinoff nor should they make anymore daredevil films...either be a gritty and dark neo noir comic book film with sex and violence or be a fluff piece for the kiddies to watch...not both.
as much as i liked the grittiness of the film, it was lost with all the other bs they fucked up on in the movie.
