Daredevil (2003) 5/10

Starring : Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, Michael Clarke Duncan, Colin Farrell, Jon Favreau, Joe Pantoliano
Director : Mark Steven Johnson
Running Time : 99 mins

Matt Murdock (Affleck) was involved in an accident as a child which made him go blind, but heightened his other senses to compensate. As a result, he becomes the Daredevil and fights injustice both on the streets and in the courts in his day job as a lawyer. When he comes up against the notorious Kingpin (Duncan), he finds himself fighting for his life against the deadly Bullseye (Farrell).

This wasn’t the worst superhero movie I’ve ever seen, but it could have been a lot better. Affleck wasn’t really suited to the role of Matt Murdock because, even when blind, he still looks too smug! And I never understood why Garner had to wear those green contact lenses – Elektra had brown eyes anyway, so why bother?
