Summary
Reviewers say 'Daredevil' is acclaimed for its dark, gritty tone, mature themes, and complex characters, setting it apart from other Marvel productions. The series is praised for exceptional fight choreography, realistic portrayal of a blind vigilante, and strong performances by Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio. Cinematography, character development, and moral ambiguity are highlighted strengths. However, some note issues with pacing, repetitive action scenes, and certain character arcs. Despite these criticisms, the overall reception remains highly positive.

This is not your average super hero show. I love the dark tone of the show. It has great story, great acting, and great action. Go ahead and watch this show.
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.

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.

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 :)
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.
