With the 13 episode Netflix Daredevil series starring Charlie Cox, Vincent D’Onofrio, Deborah-Ann Wall, Elden Hensen and Rosario Dawson soon to be upon us we return, a bit later than anticipated, and take the opportunity to sit down for our Daredevil 2003 Movie Review.

In our Daredevil 2003 Movie Review we discuss the important additional scenes of the extended cut of the Daredevil movie versus the theatrical release; and also spot some tense interviews with the producers and directors about the different movie edits in the Blu-Ray extras. The great performance of the late Michael Clarke Duncan cast as Wilson Fisk (aka The Kingpin) is highlighted as a standout and comparisons are made with Vincent D’Onofrio, one member of the podcast has a lot of trouble pronouncing his name…it’s “Don…Of…Rio”, it’s like “DON…OFF…RIO” like the city Rio de Janeiro! We also revel in the manic zaniness brought to the film by Colin Farrel as Bullseye, who uses his natural Irish accent for the first time in a Hollywood film. We chat about Ben Affleck and his portrayal of Matt Murdoch/Daredevil, which was much maligned at the time; as well as delving in to the love story that involves Elektra Natchios played by Jennifer Garner.

As we discussed on the show if you want to hear a preview of all of our hosts (John, Irene, Chris and Derek) have a listen to our European Roundtable of the DC TV show Gotham on our Gotham TV Podcast here https://gothamtvpodcast.com/european-gotham-roundtable/ WARNING full spoilers for the first 10 episodes of Gotham are in this podcast.
