Initial responses to Disney+’s Daredevil: Born Again have predominantly been favorable, but a few viewers who got a sneak peek at some episodes are finding the CGI somewhat challenging. Eammon Jacobs of Business Insider comments:

Born Again has been generally positive, but some individuals who previewed selected episodes have encountered a bit of difficulty with the visual effects. Eammon Jacobs from Business Insider voices this concern.

Delighted to express that Daredevil: Born Again is incredibly engrossing and unapologetically showers violence on the viewers, all while authentically portraying Daredevil’s character as if he had never departed from our screens. Admittedly, there are moments of clumsy CGI, but overall, it’s a thrilling spectacle.

According to Chris Killian from ComicBook.com, he finds the CGI in the latest streaming show slightly unpolished, yet he still appreciates it and considers it one of his preferred Marvel series produced by Disney.

Initially, the first two instalments of “Daredevil: Born Again” introduce a fresh, stylish vigor to Daredevil that deviates slightly from its Netflix counterpart, aligning more with the brooding atmosphere of the comics – an aspect I found particularly appealing. Brace yourself for an emotional impact and steer clear of spoilers! My primary complaint lies in certain CGI aspects appearing hasty, yet overall, I was captivated by the narrative and ambiance of this production. The depiction of Daredevil in this series feels significantly more like a superhero compared to its Netflix portrayal, and it’s already shaping up to be my favorite Marvel Disney+ show in recent times.

Some viewers have voiced apprehension over the series transitioning to a new streaming platform, fearing that Daredevil, or the Man Without Fear, might lose his sharpness in moving from Netflix to Disney+. To put these worries at ease, The Electric Playground’s Victor Lucas asserts:

After watching the initial two installments of Daredevil: Born Again, I can assure you that if you were concerned the Disney+ series might not pack the same punch or carry the same intensity as its Netflix counterpart, your worries are unfounded. I’m eagerly anticipating the remaining episodes and holding on tight!

Wong, in his remarks, highlights the intense nature of the upcoming MCU project, referring to it as a glimpse into the future that Marvel enthusiasts can expect.

Born Again” offers a glimpse into the future of Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) television shows. It’s like Marvel has reintroduced us to the world of Daredevil using a powerful narrative. The action sequences are exceptionally intense, making it the most brutal action in any Marvel project so far. Keep an eye out for a captivating cameo featuring a magical character 🧙‍♂️.

According to Daniel Baptista from The Movie Podcast, he’s feeling very optimistic about the remainder of the series following his viewing of the initial two episodes. Baptista expresses this sentiment as follows: “I have HIGH CONFIDENCE for the rest of the season!

Daredevil: Born Again offers a compelling revisit to Marvel’s intricate and troubled protagonist, brilliantly portrayed by Cox and D’Onofrio. Their performances firmly establish their roles within the MCU, paving the way for an intense and grueling saga – potentially the darkest and most brutal chapter yet. I’ve watched the initial two episodes, and I’m eagerly looking forward to the remaining installments!

Although comparisons to the Netflix show are unavoidable and generally positive at this point, Nick van Dinther notes that the Disney+ series carries a distinct flavor, yet remains satisfying according to his assessment. In other words, while both share similarities, the Disney+ series has its own unique feel, but it still manages to deliver an enjoyable experience, as expressed by van Dinther.

Despite not being an exact replica of Netflix’s Daredevil, the debut of the Disney version preserves that level of maturity while presenting a violent narrative in a fresh perspective. Any skepticism about Charlie Cox’s role as She-Hulk can be put to rest – this Matt Murdock is exactly what fans have been yearning for.

Matt Mitovich from TV Line has a slight difference in opinion, expressing that the upcoming series “Daredevil: Born Again” seems remarkably similar to its original (in a positive sense).

I wasn’t prepared for how explosive the first two episodes of Daredevil: Born Again turned out to be, particularly the premiere. It has a strong resemblance to the original series and is filled with intense, brutal action sequences. The scenes involving Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio are electrifying. Mayor Fisk is incredibly captivating. It’s great to see Karen and Foggy back in the mix. This promises to be a thrilling ride.

That certainly brings a smile to Matt Murdock and Marvel Cinematic Universe fans, knowing the positive direction for their favorite superhero in its upcoming series. And here’s some fantastic news – it has already been confirmed for a second season! The first two episodes will be streamable starting March 4 on Disney+, with fresh installments released every Tuesday.
