Barely escaping Wilson Fisk with his life, the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen is discovered by Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson), as is his secret identity as Matt Murdock! It goes without saying that Foggy is a bit pissed because he believes that everything he knows about Matt–who he’s known since college–is a lie. While Madame Gao […]
Shadows in the Glass is a very Wilson Fisk-centered episode, as Wesley (Toby Leonard Moore) thinks Nobu (Peter Shinkoda) is becoming a problem, while Det. Blake (Chris Tardio) is recovering from the gunshot that everyone thinks was done by Daredevil, though was actually initiated by Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio). Fisk wants Blake killed, and enlists his […]
This episode we meet Stick (Scott Glenn) in flashback–he’s the man who taught Matt Murdock/Daredevil his formidable fighting skills–and in the modern day. He’s in New York to attempt to enlist Matt’s aid in stopping Nobu (Peter Shinkoda), the right hand of Madame Gao (Wai Ching Ho) from bringing a mysterious shipment, known only as Black Sky, into […]
Hell’s Kitchen is burning as Fisk works to get the Russians out of the way, while Daredevil tries to save Vladmir Ranskahov (Nikolai Nikolaeff) from Wilson Fisk’s minions in the New York Police Department. Throughout the world of Daredevil he’s dealing with all sorts of corruption, especially the aforementioned NYPD. I’d say that this this […]
In an enclosed space, Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) can not only taste copper in the air, a useful talent if there’s someone is bleeding nearby, but can also hear the sound a person’s bones make when they are shifting when broke. That’s not a superpower in the same neighborhood as flight or super-strength, but it’s […]
“I’ve seen few movies start so promisingly and end up being so disappointing. Spoilers follow below, so if you haven’t seen it, head on over to Netflix.” Christopher Denham‘s Preservation is a bit of an odd bird. It’s essentially a survival horror movie, where three campers, Aaron Neary (Mike Staton), his wife Wit (Wrenn Schmidt) and brother […]
Disaster movies are kind of fascinating, if only because I get the feeling that many of us think that they somehow couldn’t happen to us (and sure, if you’re talking about movies like Independence Day or Man of Steel-mediocre superhero film, great disaster movie–then you’re probably right). I don’t think that this tendency is exclusively an […]
“John Pogue’s The Quiet Ones doesn’t bring a lot new to the possession sub-genre, but is most interesting for its restrained, almost documentary-like approach.” The first thing that I noticed about John Pogue’s The Quiet Ones was that it’s supposedly based upon actual events, which for me means that you’re going to get one of two extremes. The […]
A lot of critics attack Disney’s 1979 sci-fi blockbuster The Black Hole on the basis of science. And while one level that’s understandable, it’s not terribly fair. For instance one critic called foul on the black hole being visible. And while it’s true that according to science they cannot be seen–you don’t see the black […]
This is the type of crap I absolutely hate, and Roger Moore should know better. What I am referring to is an interview he did with Paris Match when he said that Idris Elba wasn’t “English-English” enough to play James Bond. And he could be saying a lot of things–though we all know what he […]
