Episode 27. DAREDEVIL (2003)

Are Dru and Dave men without fear? Certainly not, which is why they're recruited guest host James Hrivnak to join them in their trip to Hell's Kitchen, NYC to discuss Mark Steven Johnson's Daredevil. Even though it represents a serious improvment from the theatrical cut, we can all agree that Matt Murdock deserves a better film. Don't blame us, we're not the bad guys! Blame Mark Steven Johnson!
