Cannot get much more cliché than this. At this point, it seems like Blumhouse just regurgitates everything that he's already done multiple times and only tries to appeal to different demographics as if they're something new. They always end up being straight up hollow releases that don't offer anything but the occasional jump scare if even that . If we were to start speaking with our wallets and not even bothering with these then maybe they can stop the overabundance of them and we can start getting some originality. Unfortunately it seems like they still garner enough of an audience maybe from the younger generation to where they seem unavoidable. It seriously seems like a movie that was made four times in 2015 just repacked and rebranded for a different audience .

When the original series first came out on Netflix, almost a decade ago, it revolutionized comic adaptation to series format. There had never been a comic series that came like it before that captivated more than most full length films did or still do. For my taste it was the best thing in the Marvel universe to ever come out. The grittiness , the sheer brutality, and heart of the characters made it shine brighter than anyone could've imagined.

When Disney acquired Marvel, the show was put on a hiatus along with all the other Netflix marvel series. No one knew if we'd see this brilliant version of daredevil and punisher again. Thankfully they made the right choice and brought them both back and I can honestly say once again, it has reignited the MCU in much needed fashion.

It starts off where it ended with such a fluidity and continuation of quality. It's actually uncanny how close they managed to come. All the actors are still top-notch and on top of their game. The characterization is just so impeccably written it's flabbergasting. With an even bigger budget, the action sequences, and overall dynamo has been upped to insane levels. The level of production quality on this is truly mind blowing. Even though we're only two episodes and it's safe to say that we have definitely been born again into witnessing greatness in the MCU after a long time of not. I cannot wait to see what else happens this season and cannot wait what they do with the punisher project that will follow..

While I must admit I'm not the biggest fan of what the MCU has been doing the past 5 years, I am undoubtedly a huge Hulk fan. If it wasn't for some hulk plots blending in with this I may not bother watching . Theres still something about this version of "Captain America" or so they call him that just doesn't do it for me . Nothing against Anthony Mackie as it's more about how Feige is writing this new iteration and imposing certain undertones . That's not to say this film isn't entertaining and visually stunning because at times it is. I will say it's at least more intriguing than anything in awhile in the MCU imo. It's nice to see Harrison Ford shining in a renaissance type of role and I think that's the best part of this besides the hulk aspects . Overall it's solid but nothing that will reignite the MCU from its somewhat idling property .
