Daredevil

What is with this Daredevil movie? I saw a whole bunch of preview for the movie that made me want to see it then I found out that Ben Afleck played the main character and that soured it a little for me. I found it most interesting that most of the previews I've seen don't even say his name. Are they ashamed to say he's in it? Do they think that if they mention him all the guys in their target audience will be turned off a little? My theory is Afleck must be trying to become more than just a chick-flick star so he's going for something different. I'll probably go see the movie to see how he does. Maybe he wants to become associated with movies for guys who like movies like Bruce Willis or Samuel L Jackson.

Saw it Thursday night.

It's...not bad . That is to say, it's entertaining, but it's stupid entertainment. It doesn't begin to approach the emotional depth of Spider-Man or the intelligence of X-Men.

It's basically just another throwaway comic book movie, which is really sad, because Daredevil deserves a lot better.

Have any of you actually been reading the comic book lately? It's incredibly good, well written and the artwork is amazing. You should try to pick up the trade paperback "Underboss", which is where the series really starts to kick butt.

Why the hell did they put Jennifer Garner with a blind superhero? Can't he get Janeane Garofalo or something?

*sigh*Beauty is wasted on the blind.

A movie in which Ben Affleck plays a blind superhero isn't really my cup of tea, and as I'm not a big fan of superhero-movies anyhow (I'm a warmovie-guy) I think I'll pass this one.

This sunday I am, however, attending the theatre to so the highly successful swedish comedy "Kopps" about a police station in rural sweden being closed down. Enjoy.

I would prefer anyone BUT Ben Affleck to play in such a movie ! Then again, I didn't want to see Tobey Maguire in Spider-Man either, but nonetheless the movie rocked !!

Maybe I'll just give it a shot....

I saw it yesterday (sunday) and i enjoyed it, it was nothing special but it was lots of fun.

I thought ben aflek (sp?) did quite well in the role, but I am a fan of his because of is roles in kevin smith's movies (mall rats, dogma, chasing amy....)

Based on some of the posts here, I am wanting to see the movie a little less. Maybe I'll wait and rent it.
