Description of Daredevil (Director's Cut):
Darker than its popular comic-book predecessor Spider-Man, the $80 million extravaganza Daredevil was packaged for maximum global appeal, its juvenile plot beginning when 12-year-old Matt Murdock is accidentally blinded shortly before his father is murdered. Later an adult attorney in New York's Hell's Kitchen, Murdock (Ben Affleck) uses his remaining, superenhanced senses to battle crime as Daredevil, the masked and vengeful "man without fear," pitted against dominant criminal Kingpin (Michael Clarke Duncan) and the psychotic Bullseye (Colin Farrell), who can turn almost anything into a deadly projectile. Daredevil is well matched with the dynamic Elektra (Jennifer Garner), but their teaming is as shallow as the movie itself, which is peppered with Marvel trivia and cameo appearances (creator Stan Lee, Clerks director and Daredevil devotee Kevin Smith) and enough computer-assisted stuntwork to give Spidey a run for his money. This is Hollywood product at its most lavishly vacuous; die-hard fans will argue its merits while its red-leathered hero swoops and zooms toward a sequel. --Jeff Shannon
Daredevil (Director's Cut) Reviews:
Like a "3d" computer game from the mid 1990's 
2009-10-14 - The graphics on bluray remind me of the video games from the mid 90's like the origional doom games and quake.
The graphics of the 6th sense he has sickend me to my core.
The extra film in the directors cut selfshows why it had been cut in the first place; BECAUSE 90% OF IT HARMED THE FLOW OF THE STORY! some extra scenes even made the comic hero more comedic then heroic.
If you liked the movie in theaters and dvd, i pray and beg you dont get it in Blu and make the mistake i sadly did.
LOgans review 
2009-09-23 - I thought that this movie was quite well written and thought out clearly. I do think that it could have been better but was still a very very very good movie.
Daredevil Director's Cut well worth watching 
2009-06-04 - This version of the movie is much more enjoyable that the theatrical version. Seeing it on Blu-ray was a real pleasure.
Daredevil 
2009-05-31 - So, this movie got a lot of flack but I really enjoyed it. I love the darker, more sinister persepective that Affleck had on the character. I owned the DVD, but the bluray looks FANTASTIC.
Nice bonus features as well.
Improvement over first version... 
2009-05-08 - This review is for the Director's Cut Blu-ray version of Daredevil which you may have read elsewhere is an improvement over the 103 minute theatrical cut. There is more background to Daredevil's character which really helps the story along, although the movie's script is far from ideal. The dts Master Audio really shines and the video is solid but not quite demo material. For around $15 with free Prime shipping it was too good of a bargain to pass up.
