Attorney Matt Murdock (Ben Affleck) is blind, but his other four senses function with superhuman sharpness. By day, Murdock represents the downtrodden. At night, he is Daredevil, a masked vigilante, a relentless avenger of justice. When Wilson Fisk (Michael Clarke Duncan) hires Bullseye (Colin Farrell) to kill Daredevil, Murdock must rely on his own senses and search out the conspirators against justice -- which may include his own girlfriend, Elektra (Jennifer Garner).

What to Know

Critics Consensus

While Ben Affleck fits the role and the story is sporadically interesting, Daredevil is ultimately a dull, brooding origin story that fails to bring anything new to the genre.

Namrata Joshi Outlook Daredevil has a brooding dark and dank air about it, much like Batman. That's about the only element that lends the movie any character. Rated: 1/4 Jan 4, 2019 Full Review Alexander Walker London Evening Standard From start to finish, the film is death-ridden and employs overamplified sound to pump up its many pornographic images. Dec 14, 2017 Full Review Joe Morgenstern Wall Street Journal It isn't a great film, or even a greatly original one. Still, it has many grace notes, and interesting oddities. Jul 14, 2015 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand ... a strange, sometimes maddening movie. It’s shot with a hyperactive camera that jitters like the Flash on a dozen cups of espresso and written as if the actors were speaking the archly pulp dialogue balloons of a real comic book ... Aug 9, 2024 Full Review Justin Brown Medium Popcorn This was brutal to get through...I was in an utter state of confusion during the entire film. Rated: 1/5 Jul 24, 2023 Full Review Brandon Collins Medium Popcorn Tonally it is all over the place and barely makes any logical sense; even with the ordinary stuff. The performances were coo coo bananas. Rated: 1/5 Jul 24, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

12915 P This movie wasn't horrible but it has a lot of problems, i think Daredevil's design is cool in all, but when he fought againts Elektra it was a pretty lame fight Elektra just had to see it was Matt and then she stops fighting? That makes no sense and i kinda wanted to see more of Elektra but she just dies later and i think Kingpin was a pretty lame villain he just sits around for most of the movie and the final fight was okay i guess but all Daredevil had to do was spray water everywhere and that's all it took, so overall this movie was a little on the mid side but i don't think the bad superhero movies are completly bad obviously superhero movies are rarely bad and i don't think this movie is fully bad there's some entertainment and i don't think Ben Affleck was a bad choice to play Daredevil but this movie isn't good but it's not fully terrible Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/25/25 Full Review Nerd W The movie wasn’t bad but should be better, it’s Daredevil! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/21/25 Full Review Daniel N Didn't like it when it first came out and still don't like it in 2025. Couldn't actually finish it this time. Not sure why I have this movie in my DVD collection. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/19/25 Full Review Diogo S Extremely underrated movie, just finished rewatching it, still solid even in 2025 in my opinion. Ben affleck has great swagger as both matt murdock and daredevil Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review Dena H 3 star for the directors cut it's marginally better but it's so forgettable a lot of problems and it's just bad. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/24/25 Full Review David C La película es buena aunque los efectos son chafas Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/23/25 Full Review Read all reviews
