Daredevil: Born Again Series-Premiere Recap: Man of the People
Daredevil kicks off in a new form and with a major loss while still feeling like the Daredevil we always knew.
Foggy stashed the client at his place to protect him after something that went down in Red Hook, but now a familiar face is after them both: Benjamin “Dex” Poindexter, or Bullseye, the former FBI agent with perfect aim from season three (and iconic villain from the comics) who briefly worked for Fisk and impersonated Daredevil until getting his spine broken for turning on his employer. It’s worth noting that this first episode is directed by exec producers Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson, a filmmaking team known for sci-fi horror flicks like The Endless and Synchronic(though Spring is my personal favorite), and the choice to hire them really pays off here. I’m not just talking about the fighting choreography in the Daredevil-Bullseye brawl, which is as good as ever; the chaos of bystanders milling around in the foreground is particularly immersive along with the camera smoothly dollying back to follow Dex as he flees through the building, striking and mostly killing any human being he encounters.
