Daredevil was such an incredible show! Charlie Cox (Daredevil) and Vincent D'Onofrio (Wilson Fisk) led such an amazing cast who were all at the top of their game throughout this amazing series! It's too bad that Marvel and Netflix had to split up because they made some pretty special shows. All of them were great but Daredevil and The Punisher were easily the best among them! It's one of the best superhero/crime shows ever made and where all 3 seasons were great! There's really not much more to say that hasn't already been said about this amazing show so just do yourself a favor and go watch it.

Daredevil won't stay down and neither will we

Season 3...
Kingofthehill00020 October 2018
Let me start by saying Daredevil season 1 was so great it was the reason I got Netflix.Daredevil season 2 for me was ok,I really liked the punisher but I didn't feel much for the main plot.but wow season 3 ..I would probably get my memory erased to relive this masterpiece again...
Every character which is introduced has a proper backstory.you actually care about each and every persons motives.you get to choose who you like.i love great villians and this show delivers not one but two.Wilson Fisk from season 1 itself was very impressive and season 3 he delivers an exemplary performance,but the person who stole the show was bullseye,his character development was amazing and the action scenes were phenomenal.usually shows have plot holes ,directors don't really care to fill them up but this show had no plot holes.It was really amazing ,they went for a bit unexpected ending which I really liked.usually multiple villains ruin movies and shows but this they did it so well.lol,this is probably how been afflecks Daredevil movie should have been.Must watch :)
Easily the Best Show I've Ever Seen!
jtgarcia-1398726 March 2019
I seriously don't understand why Netflix would cancel this show. The writing was spectacular, the acting was phenomenal, the action scenes are just perfect, and so much more. I cannot even express my love for this show. I was a fan of the Flash and thought it was a good show until I watched this. I haven't even continued the Flash since because it does NOT compare to this show.
Vincent D'Onofrio's Wilson Fisk is easily my favorite MCU villain. He's just so compelling and thrilling. He truly brings this show to life. Jon Bernthal as Punisher was absolutely flawless. Wilson Bethel as Bullseye is a fantastic villain. And finally, we have Daredevil himself: Charlie Cox. Charlie Cox IS Daredevil. No question about it. Just watch it. You'll thank yourself.
This is a spectacular, more realistic adaptation of Daredevil and it works so well. The action is done much more realistically, making them even better. Action, character development, story, all the things a TV show and movie should have can all be found right here.
WATCH. IT. It will change superhero shows for you forever

Amazing!!

As a huge fan of Marvel I'm a little biased because I pretty much like everything they put out. My bias aside, Daredevil is terrific! It's actually my favorite Marvel show (along with The Punisher). If you don't believe me just read through the reviews here and look at the ratings. Even the critics loved this. Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio were born to play Daredevil and Kingpin. They're easily the best part of the show. This is a show that you'll want to binge as quickly as you can, it's that good. It's too bad that Netflix couldn't renew their contracts with Marvel and they had to stop making the Netflix Marvel shows because every single one of them was great! Now that they're on Disney they can bring these wonderful characters back. They already started to with Daredevil and Kingpin showing up in other shows and they just renewed Daredevil for another season. Now they have to do the same for The Punisher, Luke Cage and Jessica Jones. At least bring them back into the MCU somehow. If you're a Marvel fan then this is a must watch!
''Daredevil'' the real ''Dark Knight'' of Marvel.
elie-music6 April 2019
The Marvel Netflix Universe was the best thing in Netflix along with ''Jessica Jones'', ''Luke Cage'', ''Iron Fist'', ''The Punisher'' and ''Daredevil'' is my favorite of them. I was always looking forward to see the episodes when I have time after work.
I don't want to tell anything on this trilogy Master-Piece but I'm really sad they cancelled this show but at least it ended with a perfect trilogy of seasons so I suggest you to watch this because Its what I think it is the greatest Marvel adaptation of all time.

Save this masterpiece
emamzadeh-8384813 January 2019
Save daredevil. Don't let one of the best super hero shows of all time (if not the best) die so soon.
Daredevil doesn't deserve this fate. He is the one who keeps the city safe so the Avengers can save the earth.
Can't believe such masterpiece ends so soon.
best of the Marvel Netflix pocket universe
SnoopyStyle18 May 2019
Matt Murdock as a child was blinded by a toxic spill from a crash. He becomes a lawyer fighting for the little guys. In secret, he develops his other senses and becomes the vigilant Daredevil of Hell's Kitchen. Foggy Nelson is his law partner. They defend Karen Page in the first episode and she becomes their office manager. Later, she becomes a journalist. Their main nemesis is master criminal Wilson Fisk known as Kingpin.
It's the first of the Netflix Marvel universe. It's also the best of them. It's a moderately budgeted series geared towards more adult stories. The characters are compelling. The actors really work. It maintains the cartoon action while giving some real world tension to the stories. The first season sets up this pocket universe with a great tone and great start. The second season fades a little. The thirteen episode runs may be a little too long. The third season returns to form as Vincent D'Onofrio takes back the mantle as the head villain. It is as much his story as it is Matt Murdock's story. It does dwell on Dex a little too much as it tries to set up his character. In the end, Dex and Nadeem are not much more than one season wonders and they aren't a draw for the audience. Dex would become another big Daredevil character but the show is canceled before that. With Disney-Marvel starting up its own streaming service, the partnership with Netflix ends after three seasons. It's been a really fun side hustle and this is the best of the them.

Spectacular
lazaros-380248 April 2020
Zero CGI,great fighting scenes and choreography,amazing performance by Charlie Cox and finally a normal powered villian with a really nice motivation.Marvel cancelled this beauty to produce trash movies like Captain Marvel.Well done.
Marvel's greatest failure was cancelling this masterpiece
bartgodboy31 August 2021
I know it's probably mostly Disney's fault with the coming of their streaming service Disney+ but man, cancelling what is the best Marvel media ever made is the biggest mistake they've ever made.
This show is beyond fantastic. In terms of execution, it's almost flawless, the acting is fantastic (everyone is great, there isnt a single actor who is bad but Charlie cox and Vincent donofrio definitely steal the show, they are masterful), the story is always engaging and the action is on par with the likes of John Wick and The Raid. I cannot recommend this show enough, truly the greatest thing Marvel has ever done.

Really, really average
Geronimo29006 November 2015
If the tone of this is overly critical, it's only because everyone else seems to be raving about this series. I honestly can't believe the hype it's got - it is distinctly average.
I'll admit I don't know the comics back to front - I'm coming at this purely as a viewer rather than a particular Daredevil fan.
The whole show seems confused as to what it wants to be - it's got intense violence and dark moments, conveying desires to be seen in a Nolan-esque manner, yet there are so many lazy clichés and weak lines that it never breaks from seeming cartoonish. I'm happy with either - I don't mind cheesy - but one has to be chosen.
There were cool moments, some nice set pieces, and the acting was OK. Matt Murdoch, when in that form, is unbelievably boring - he speaks like a video game character clumsily representing moral fortitude. 'Foggy' is your ten a penny comic relief figure - a great role if done well, but this was, again, average. Ben Urich might have been the single dullest character in anything I've ever watched, with an utterly pointless storyline.
Fisk was the worst though. Almost nothing is explained in terms of how he got to the top - there's no particular cunning or charisma - he's just good at punching stuff really hard and looking a bit unstable; he earns no gravitas at any point. There was no menace to him - he comes off more like a really strong autistic kid than genius level crime lord. He has all the composure of a pigeon trapped in a train carriage. Saying 'This City...' quietly through gritted teeth is not deep and thought provoking.
The music was particularly bad - the producers seemed happy to crowbar any over-the-top classical music in to try and coat things in a bit of drama. Nessun Dorma montage? Come on, try a little harder.
I could forgive all of this though, if it hadn't been so...dull. There's a lame attempt to create some sort of 'All The President's Men' style chase that just drags the whole show into a black hole of people handing other people documents. I almost doubt my credential to write this review as I was so bored by anything going on at the Law firm or Newsroom that I basically turned my brain off.
I will say that the fighting was very good - the choreography was incredible. It's not really something that swings me either way, but I did appreciate the effort that went into that.
Overall though, shocked that its being lauded - if the Joker gave us a better class of criminal, we need a better class of hero.
I've leave it on that pseudo-snappy ending.

One of the best superhero series!
ahmetkozan30 March 2016
After delivering a wonderfully crafted show with Agent Carter, Marvel is back with another one, Daredevil. I love Netflix. They are enjoying good business. I think Marvel is one step ahead according to DC in TV series.
My favorite was superhero series Daredevil. He is lawyer in the morning but he fights with criminals at nights. The fight scenes are quite impressive and realistic. Hallway scene in first season, stairs scene in second season. Enormous scenes!
The show has a great atmosphere and is extremely dark, but it has a couple of jokes fitted around. The characters are greatly acted and the story is one of the greatest stories that has been on TV recently. The supporting cast is very good and characters get a lot of shared screen time, exploring street level hero stuff in ways we haven't seen and providing some real grit and action like never before in this genre.
Punisher and Elektra were above my expectations. I can't believe this surpassed my expectations. The show is perfect, by far the best superhero show to have ever played on screen. This is by far my favorite thing the MCU has produced thus far.
Daredevil is a must watch for Superhero fans, DC, Marvel or both. And I'm sure, you'll enjoy it! 10/10

Miller's Daredevil Brought To Life
user-279-77371110 April 2015
Those familiar with comics will know Frank Miller's run on Daredevil is up there with the highest points of his career. Other writers, such as Bendis and Brubaker, hit similar highs in their writing of the character. It's something about Daredevil that brings out incredible storytelling, whether it be the downtrodden and persevering Matt Murdock or the gritty realism of the setting in contrast to the colorful heroes that populate comic books, Daredevil has had a history of fantastic luck with having its potential tapped on paper.
Now, that potential has been tapped on the screen. From the first episode you can tell the property has been adapted with love and a lot of hard work. The cinematography is beautiful in every frame. The characters could not have been cast better. If this weren't actually a better deal for fans, getting 13 hours of (excellent) content, I would hope Charlie Cox could front a Daredevil movie franchise. Because he could carry it.
Daredevil has been the star of some of the best comics ever written, so the adaptation was always going to come under scrutiny. But how it holds up against them? This might actually be better.

As a comic books fan, I must say he's (Daredevil) one of the most complex characters. I loved it. The characters, story line, fight sequences, scores, production, cinematography, direction, music ,everything was great! Can't wait to see the next season. Season 1 - 8.8 Season 2 - 9.5 Season 3 - 9.3 .
Thank you Marvel, Thank you Netflix, simply a perfect show.

King(pin) of Superhero TV
southdavid5 December 2018
As with Luke Cage and Iron Fist before, the demise of "Daredevil", which must been seen as the crown jewel of the Netflix/Marvel partnership gives me the chance to write an appraisal for the three seasons we've received.
By day, Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) is a principled lawyer who, along with his friend and partner Foggy Nelson (Eldon Hansen) defend the good people of Hell's Kitchen as a public defendant. Once night falls, he takes a more direct approach, heading to the night as "Daredevil" and fighting crime in a more literal sense. Both his divergent lives bring him up against Wilson Fisk (Vincent D'Onofrio) a brutal but intelligent criminal mastermind.
Daredevil is really, for whatever reason, a cut above the other shows that have made up this Netflix shared universe. It might be something to do with the quality of people that were attracted to work on it behind the camera. Stephen D Knight and Drew Goddard initially, though Goddard moved on after the first season. The real star of the show though are whomever the fight co-ordinators are. There is at least one glorious corridor battle in each series, with the one in the first season, where the camera pans up and down a corridor as DD battles various goons crossing in and out of the shot being one of the my most memorable TV sequences of all-time.
It might also just be that the character is better than his Defenders contemporaries. Though still powered, heightened senses related to his blindness, he doesn't have the same invulnerability that make Jessica Jones and Luke Cage's battles more one sided affairs. They also aren't afraid to show the damage that the fighting causes to Matt and the toll it takes on his body. Charlie Cox does an excellent job playing Murdock, so much so I really don't feel like I want to see anyone else take on the role if Disney does decided to reboot the series for their own app.
Though they did get to hit some of the characters key points, his relationships with Elecktra, Frank Castle and Bullseye, it still feels like an opportunity missed here to continue to create some great television.

A reason to sign up for Netflix, all other facts aside
sbucklar10 April 2015
As a long term comic book nerd, and a huge fan of the Marvel cinematic universe and television properties - I wasn't sure what to make of the proposed Street Heroes development deal with Netflix, especially in light of the history with those characters in film (Affleck's disappointing Daredevil in particular). I was however pleasantly optimistic from the teaser releases.
I am breath taken with the end result. Vincent D'Onofrio is to my mind the standout star and an act of sheer casting genius as Kingpin. The menace and complexity in his voice even when he's not on screen, and the cold, calculating and distant aspect of his body language, and the delivery of his dialogue, shows both the depth of his talent as an actor and the brilliance of his casting. As a long term fan of D'Onofrio - and a huge fan of the king pin in the comic book universe - I'm thrilled at the prospect of his continued involvement with the Marvel cinematic universe.
The sound editing for the series in general, from D'Onofrio's voice overs to the audible representations of the protagonist's enhanced senses is a triumph. It begs to be recognized and awarded. It is perhaps as integral to success of the series as the performance of any of the characters.
Also, Deborah Ann Woll who played Jessica Hamby in True Blood remains equally gifted as an actress, stunning as an aesthetic work of art, and for a moment, just a little bit more naked than she was in her prior works. Which after 71 episodes of true blood with a celebrity crush on her - has to be a acknowledged as part of the reason for my immediate fondness for the series. But as talented as she is, the show would stand as remarkable even without her.
In the interest of fairness, there are some rough moments in the dialogue. The visual effects have moments of awkwardness in the earlier episodes. There is a sense in a few corners of the production group finding its feet. But it does seem to level out (and up) as the story progresses.

One of the best superhero adaptations
roaches_9712 September 2022
Season 1 - 9/10
Season 2- 7/10
Season 3 - 10/10
This show is awesome. It's intense, violent, the action is awesome, and it's well written. I watched this because Disney announced a new Daredevil series so I figured I should see this first, and it's totally worth a watch. Seeing it for myself also lead me to believe that Disney will without a doubt mess their show up. I can't do it very much justice just by explaining it, so go watch it yourself. Also keep in mind that you need to watch Defenders between seasons 2 and 3. It's okay, like a 7/10, but it's only 8 episodes long, so it's not too painful to get through.

Overall it's just OK
joannacord-jc6 June 2016
I was hoping for more. It's a little dry & slow for me. Sometimes the scenes drag on for too long. Charlie Cox makes a good Daredevil. The ass-kickery is top notch. I was pleasantly surprised about Vincent D'Onofrio taking on the roll of Fisk. He's scared me ever since Full Metal Jacket. Rosario's Claire feels genuine & believable. One of the more honest characters in the show. I wish we could see more of her and less of Deborah's Karen & Elden's Foggy characters. They are both too whiny & annoying for me to give it better than a six. I find myself skipping through their scenes more and more often. I was hoping that would change in Season 2 but it didn't.
Great superhero show
cherylkyrandia16 April 2023
Daredevil tells of a superhero who is blind and harnesses his 6th senses to take out his enemies. Behind the mask is a lawyer, akin to Clark Kent/Superman in the journalist world. The show is based on the comic books for those of us who are so inclined and the show pays homage well to the original stories. Wilson Fisk, played by the expert veteran actor Vincent D'Onofrio, is one of the most terrifying adversaries that Daredevil comes up against. I really enjoyed this series and am absolutely shattered that they cancelled it after 3 years. It's a great series and one that is worthy of a reboot!
Post-Cancellation Review
danieljackthomas27 December 2018
Okay, I rarely do reviews on here, and when I say rarely, I mean I've done two others before.
Can I just say, that it is 1. CRIMINAL that this show has been cancelled by Netflix and 2. LIKELY that it's due to the Disney+ Streaming Service (regardless of rumours) and will hopefully be continued on there (or at least the character).
This is genuinely such an AMAZING series. From the acting, to the story-lines, to the character development to the fight choreography.
Trying to keep it as brief as possible, it pays extremely respectable homeage to the comicbook source material (DD, Kingpin & S3 Bullseye are all far better than i could have hoped for) whilst also featuring some of the greatest martial arts fight choreography in Western Film/TV. It really is hands down the best superhero series out there, and in my top 3 TV series of all time (Game of Thrones first & Stranger Things third).
It is that grounded in realism yet respectfully invested in the Marvel/Daredevil Universe that i recommend it to friends who love Superheroes/Sci-fi and those who don't. This really is the "Dark Knight" of Marvel productions, yet with better action.
I really can't praise this season anymore than I can, and I can only hope that the MCU continues with the adventures of Charlie Cox specifically (and the actors of kingpin, Bullseye, heck even Foggy and Karen) as they really make the characters who they are.
9.5/10 (I rounded to 10 for my vote)

The Best Show
cdymally12 June 2020
Daredevil is one of the best shows I've ever seen. The story, the fight scenes, and the characters are top-notch. Fisk is one of the best, most compelling villains on TV. I love Matt's constant battle with darkness, the pull it has over him. It's a shame this show only lasted three seasons.
The Dark Knight of Superhero TV
ollieseigne7 February 2019
Wow. If you are fan of the superhero or action or drama genre, then give this show a shot. This is genuinely the best superhero adaptation since the Dark Knight. Everything about this show is great, the writing is fantastic and the stunt work and acting are of the highest level. And some standout performances from Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock and Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk who kill it in their roles. Truly a phenomenal show.
