Daredevil Season 2 Review

Netflix's Daredevil Season 2
Marvel just did again! They've put another handful of sand in DC's food. Taking whatever worked in season 1 and spicing it up to produce a masterpiece. 

Content
Daredevil Season 2 continues the story of daytime lawyer, nighttime crime fighting Matt Murdock a.k.a. Daredevil, in his personal vendetta of relieving Hell's Kitchen, New York of crime. This time he goes down a road that questions his very resolve; keeps trying to do right and everything gets undone, questioning his morality; when he comes across The Punisher who's methods are more "effective" and also questioning where his heart truly is;?when he comes across Elektra Natchio, his longtime girlfriend from college. It's a whirlwind for Matthew in every episode trying to balance it all and find peace within himself as well, with his "Guilt."

Pros
To simply put it, it is awesome! Everything about it ticks, in addition, it revels in making references to Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and hints on Iron Fist (Danny Rand). It was an all round hoot from every main character, both old and new, with returning characters reinforcing their previous performances and new characters picking up from the new standard being set.

Cons
Firstly, I didn't see enough of The Punisher, it's a personal observation as I wanted to see more of Jon Bernthal continue in a beautiful performance of The Punisher,
 I tend to find the inconsistencies in Matt Murdock's blindness and the specific drop in pace of the opponents whenever they approached Stick

Verdict: It is absolute fun! 8/10
