Daredevil
season 3 must be not only my favorite season - Yeah it’s even better than the
first one, which was already super awesome – but the best superhero series I've ever seen. No, I am not exagerating. It’s my humble opinion but I really think
it is something you don’t see often.
Daredevil
season 3 starts shortly after the events of the defenders. Matt stays hidden in
the church while his friend Foggy thinks he's dead, because he’s like « if
he was alive, he wouldn’t let us think he’s dead » that’s his theory. Not
cool Matt, not cool. Karen still thinks he’s coming back and kept paying his
rent while he was gone. Enough said, let’s talk about the character that makes this series really, really good. Wilson Fisk, the King Pin. He very cleverly
slowly but surely, gets the FBI in his pocket. He's one villain that I
absolutely loved watching, all the way. I sometimes even rooted for him.
About the characters,
this is a show that manage to give us characters we love in masterpiece of a
story.
Foggy is the best
From the
first season, Foggy was my favorite and he still is. What I like about him is
that he’s the best friend you could ever have. And the actor, Elden Henson does a great
job portraying him. He is the best friend we all want to have and sometimes Matt, and
even Karen for that matter do not deserve him. They pull some stuns on him.
And he's always right there to help.
Matt Murdock, a superhero but a shitty friend
Matt
Murdock is an asshole to Foggy. He lets him believe he’s dead. He shows up and
he’s being a huge jerk to him and steal his lawyer card and use it to enter the
prison. Come on Matt ! That was really shitty things to do.
Karen page, who knows what’s going on this head of hers
Karen, I
don’t know how I feel about her. I love the actress who portrayes her, Deborah
Ann Woll. The character has incredibly fascinating scenes but sometimes the
choices she makes or made in the past are very questionable. But they couldn’t
have chosen a better actress to portray her. She’s amazing in that role.
The Evil Daredevil
This character
story arc was so fascinating to see. Agent Poindexter portrayed by Wilson
Bethel who I liked in Hart of Dixie, which was a completely different role. He
plays an FBI agent who is not very stable, to say the least. Fisk takes
advantage of his weakness and send him dressed as the Daredevil to present the
daredevil as the number one enemy of the town and show himself as a victim of the
daredevil in front of the public eye. Bethel makes the character seem scary, disturbed
but sympathetic at the same time. It was a very compelling character who you
sometimes felt sympathy and compassion for.
Fisk and Vanessa, the love story of the show
Without
Fisk played by Vincent D’Onofrio, this show is not at it best and I saw it in
season 2 when he wasn’t there for the most part. Here, he’s the one running the
show and it’s an absolute delight to watch. Vanessa only comes towards the end,
but I love their creepy relationship. He wants to keep the violent crime stuff
from her. Which is normal. But she’s like “I want to be like you”. Yeah, she
wants all in, the blood, the death and all that. I loved this scene when he
tells her he doesn’t know if their relationship is real or if it’s just in his own
head. That was intense. Yeah, it’s not always the good guys that find love.
Great scene after great scene
This season
is packed up with incredibly good stuff. One great scene after another. You’re
hooked, you’re surprised, you’re chocked. This season is amazing. Most of the
characters are amazing. I loved agent Nadeem. I loved agent Pointdexter or
Bullseye. The actors were great and their story arc was amazingly told. The
action scenes almost made you feel the pain of the characters. I was making a
weird face through most of them. I can’t say enough about it and how much I
loved it. It is memorable and I’m gonna see it again some day.
Conclusion : This season is sooo goood !!
Daredevil
season 3 is the best superhero season ever. It’s an absolute must-see. But You
might say, « I’m not that into superhero stuff, or comic books or
whatever ». Let me tell you this. If you like good stories. Greatly
portrayed characters, a little bit of action you can only love this. And to be
honest, you don’t even have to see the first 2 season to see this one. It
stands completely on its own even if it follows the events of the previous
seasons. Anyway, I hope you go check it out. And if you've already seen it, tell
me in the comments what you liked or didn’t like about it.
