Only Con – Weak VFX

#DaredevilBornAgain comes out SWINGING!

It’s a TRUE continuation of the Netflix series. Cox & D’Onofrio haven’t missed a beat! Some VFX moments are a weak spot.

It kicks ass, moves quick, and takes no prisoners. Really solid first 2 eps.

Really enjoyed and want to see more!! pic.twitter.com/AGDyExV5YZ

It’s EPISODIC!’

#DaredevilBornAgain has the best pilot of any MCU series thus far, and it’s not close. Edge of seat energy w/ audible gasps throughout. Charlie & Vincent haven’t lost a step, Benson & Moorhead bring the sauce. Above all else, it’s EPISODIC. We *might* be back. @screenrant pic.twitter.com/ArVsHm0cJg
