Jeez, this site's been dormant this past week. It's been catch-up time for me, scholastically and otherwise. Ahem.
[Read that as you will.]
Let's see... saw Daredevil today. Extremely disapointing. I'd elaborate on that, but I'm too busy. REALLY wish I were reviewing it for TRW. Anyone, my short take? It's terribly derivative, rather witless, and ultimately not fun at all. I had high hopes for this one, but it just falls flat. It doesn't know where its strengths lie. It offers no dramatic closure. The acting is completely over the top; Colin Farrell, whom I've enjoyed recently, as Bullseye, is just trying to ape Nicholson in The Joker... er, I mean, Batman. Well, "ape" isn't the right word, but I mean, he is so overacting that it makes his (authentic) Irish accent seem a put-on (and I bet some will think it is.) Most of the fights/FX was OK, obviously the product of a lot of hard work. The radar vision is pretty cool, I admit, but underused in fact- I would've liked to have seen more of it, in the action scenes. A brain-draining headache of a movie, which functions best as surround-sound reference material.
1 & 1/2 stars out of 4
Predicted 1st Weekend Gross: $67 Million
Predicted Total: $135 Million
Daredevil 2? By 2005, I'm positive.
