You know, I totally agree with you because unfortunately for the DD movie (and Ben Afflick) the Spider-Man movie was coming out at the same time, the studio producing DD panicked and re-edited the film to give it a faster pace so that it could compete with Spider-Man.Īs DD was never ever conceived or written as a pure action film, the DD movie ended up being butchered so that big swathes of it made no sense, so the film failed and Ben Afflick, unfairly in my opinion, got the blame. and it's a much, much better version of the movie'. I recently picked up the Directors Cut version of Daredevil (with Benny Affleck).
