The IGN reviewer seemed to like the movie a lot better with the added footage, why would he only give it a 7??

Because it's still Daredevil?

I also never understood the hate towards this. Sure, it wasn't an X-men or Spiderman, but it was a Punisher or Batman and Robin either.
For the theatrical cut (I maybe was a tad too generous but anyway) I gave it a B+. That review really sold me on purchasing the new cut. But I probably won't get rid of it, as it did have some great extras.

And unlike other Director's Cuts, this one seems to be significantly different, not to mention not having the same extras as the original and a low MSRP.

I'm really looking forward to this one, and I have to agree entirely with jonpeters

"I also never understood the hate towards this. Sure, it wasn't an X-men or Spiderman, but it was a Punisher or Batman and Robin either."

Very true

yeah, I can't wait too.

Here's a sort of mixed/positive review of the DD: DC http://chud.com/dvd/265

This says it all:

"The film looks pretty good. The actors are for the most part quite good. The costumes are good. Still, it somehow feels like an homage to Daredevil rather than an adaptation. It’s heartless in a way."


This film was a misfire from the moment Affleck shows up onscreen and I doubt any footage can help this wreck. Not even footage of the great Coolio.

Does anyone know when this comes out? I've seen various dates that show the beginning of November, the end of November, and now Amazon lists it as coming out at the beginning of December.

Afleck is kind of Blah. Changing Lanes is the only performance of his I actually enjoyed.

Daredevil 2 with another actor? I guess Elektra without Aflek is as good as Daredevil 2 .
