Excessive Force

Episode 6 rockets past 5 in every way, that's not a bad thing but it just oozes quality and I love it.

We start with Fisk being made aware of a serial Ki..er in the city and having upwards of 60 victims. He decides something needs to be done about it while he is also being exposed to the wealth of the city and realising he may need to rely on older powers to have leverage. Matt also finds out about Muze and takes it upon himself to change his approach compared to what we have seen this season and use let's say a more physical presence in his tactics.

Without going into much more the quality is fantastic and the fight scene in this is amazing!! You can see more "CG" moments but compared to other times you don't feel out of that moment.

Muse is a nasty guy and I really hope we get much more of him. I read an article that S2 will involve hero team ups, I hope they stick to this style because I can see with more DD it can work perfectly. 8/10.

Bro this, THIS is what the fans been waiting for! The original show was without a doubt the best thing marvel has ever produced, & the show being revived on d+ did raise a lot of warning signs, especially with how poor marvel has been on the platform & in general tbfh in the last 5 years or so, with the exceptions of a very projects. But THIS is what we've been crying out for, for YEARS, genuine quality!!

Finally! Really hope the rest of the season stays on course with like pacing, action, story & quality for the remaining three. Though episode 5, like some others were kinda short tbh, it was another great episode {even tho i hope to GOD that ms marvels dad is the last of 'those' characters from the goofy side of marvel that we see for the rest of the series tbh} even if it was "filler" & it shows that when u get people that actually know what their doing to write beloved characters, it'll pay off 💯 warra episode.

Hmm.. I mean he's back, they're back and seeing some shots of muse(finally), the only notable things that have happened but i think it was just a little forced all these things happening at the same time,the scenes, the fights.. it felt like one. I keep comparing this show to the Netflix one (maybe i shouldn't) and it kina disappoints me in a way.

And the ALaya niece or some thing, it was just a little cliché i guess and to remind again CGI still feels weird and overwhelming at least something happened and i guess that's good🤷‍♀️ and i have nothing else to say but it says I have to write more.

And at last, after the 6th episode(and filler but enjoyable Ep 5), we get the Daredevil that we have been waiting for.

The tension, action, and lack of noticeable distracting VFX we got in the pilot are all on show here, and it is amazing.

The duality of Fisk's descent into darkness, and Matt's return as the hero is beautiful and tragic all at the same time.

Even though some of the reshoots are still apparent in the final product, the intensity of this episode finally matches the amazing 3 seasons we got on Netflix all those years ago.

Just amazing, and what I was wishing and hoping for these last few weeks.

I'm glad to say that this week I was completely satisfied with Born Again! Episode 5 was more in the nature of what you see in episodic shows, not serialized ones, but it was still very fun and entertaining.

Episode 6, however, was excellent, near perfect I might add, if it weren't for a few bad CGI shots and a lack of creativity in the way of showing flashbacks. Other than that, it was great both in moving the dramatic side of the plot and also in its action. The final fights were amazing, and I'm just so impressed that the Disney version of Daredevil is not afraid of showing brutal scenes.

By now, I think it's an understatement to say that the sole identity of Born Again is built around the parallel connection between Murdock and Fisk: the fact that both can't change their true nature and end up crossing paths with one another in some way as forces of good and evil. The fact that this show executes this concept so well, I think, is a win for all of the fans of the original show, even though, up until this point (and still), I find it to be inferior to the original.
