Aquaman, here's the thing. I wouldn't phrase it that Spider-Man was worse than Daredevil, that's not how I'm looking at it. I think Daredevil was better than Spider-Man. I liked Spider-Man, it was a very good, fun movie, despite its flaws. But I thought Daredevil was just superior.
First of all, they made Murdock's "sight" exactly how I would've done it. I thought it was brilliantly executed, made it look like he saw what Jedi saw with a Force sense, it was very cool. I actually wish more of the movie was from his perspective, but as it was, it was really well done. The action scenes are made cooler because of it, and the love scenes are made more beautiful because of it (the scenes in the rain with Garner are fabulous).
Second, let's look at our villains. You have Michael Clarke Duncan as the perfect Wilson Fisk. He's huge, imposing, and has a great deep voice. You have Bullseye, who's probably the highlight of the movie. They can use it for humorous effect, or for dramatic effect, and he's played by Colin Farrell with the perfect balance of menace and camp.
Third, and most importantly, we have the story of Daredevil himself. I know, the origin deviated from the comic book, but it's a very tough, very dark story, and I love that he's a lawyer by day, and a crime fighter who "convicts" those who get away by night. I think Affleck played him very well. As Daredevil, he's hard-edged and rough. As Murdock, he's fairly nonchalant about his disability, able to laugh but still be serious (also, Affleck is very good playing him blind, you really can't notice that he sees, something that is very tough). Is he too good to be true? Yeah. But as someone like that, Affleck makes him a believeable character.
Fourth, Jennifer Garner is great to look at, and sometimes that's all that matters
.
Bad things about the movie? The fight scene in the schoolyard, the scene with Evanescence playing in the background, and just the fact that apparently DD was also bitten by a spider, which is the only way he could move around like that, even after getting injured. But they're not enough to kill the movie.
The fight sequences are gritty, the movie is dark, but it still manages to be a great time. I take nothing away from Spider-Man. I just think Daredevil told a better story (I mean come on, a blind superhero is about as good as it gets) in a more entertaining way.
