movie review - Daredevil

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2003.02.13

Let's see how short I can make this review: here goes.

Daredevil: predictable crap.

There, done in three words. Actually, the only surprise I got from this was seeing Canada's now-retired former leader of Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition at the cinema. He's a fellow named Preston Manning, and he founded a new party back in the 80's that promoted things like a referendum on abortion. American-style right-wing stuff. The party that eventually re-formed out of the party he founded (confusingly, named the Reform Party) is recently languishing at about 7.5% in the polls, at less than half of the union-run party of the 'left'. In Canada, there is no real opposition. I digress, but you don't need to know anything more about Daredevil I assure you.

Not recommended.
