Far better than the movie. Not the most amazing show ever, but still good enough to watch, definitely.

I'm only a few episodes in, but it's pretty amazing, considering they did this without a network budget. The fight scenes are better than anything on television..... I'd say better than most movies too, but that's only because they're working within the no-budget constraints like champs. These no-cut long fight shots are amazing. Some of the acting needs work though. Murdock's partner looks like a chump.

I agree that the fight scenes are really well done, but I feel like they follow a really obvious pattern. Matt surprises badguy, they fight, Matt's a badass, badguy seems to gain upper hand but then loses. It's predictable, but other than that, really great.

EDIT: I also really really appreciate the long-cut fight scenes. Good shit.

Yeah, that's his whole game -- inexplicably get the drop on someone who should've seen it coming (especailly since, you know, they can, well, SEE).

But I mean these are constraints of the budget. I get that. It's pretty incredible considering what it is. It's not even the worst Marvel movie around, and they did it on a budget. Impressive shit. Helps that it's fucking brutal. Stabbing people through the eyeball seems to be a recurring theme.

I think things improve quite a lot halfway through the season, in episode 6 we get to see some of Matt's limitations. Episode 7 seems to mark a shift in tone slightly away from realism, but it is one of my favourite episodes. I'm also really loving the shows focus on the Kingpin, seems to have been more his origin story than Daredevil's. I'll get to watch the finale tonight, but even if that's crap it was A.K.A Jessica Jones I was looking forward to most anyway.

My favorite bit was when Wesley subtly referenced Thor and Iron-Man.

It was a bit on the head, but as the first Defenders show it has to establish the tone for the others. The connection with the MCU was emphasized more at first, along with the Batman Begins references, as something to anchor it while it developed a distinct mood. It's especially clear with Battle of New York enabling the Kingpin's plans, where they take an MCU element and turn it into something darker and more socially involved. Other than the Kingpin being awesome, I thought the finale had considerable flaws, but the series has definitely made a world for the future characters to inhabit.

I'll feel silly now if you weren't being ironic.

My brother was telling me to watch it, and I was like "Dude, the movie though." And he was all, "Yeah yeah but the show is better than I expected it to be." And I was like "Well it would HAVE to be, it got funded."

.....I just thought it was neat. But if you want some insight....I think he looked goofy on his suit at some points in the finale.
