Daredevil (2015)
One to watch
When Daredevil was first announced it promised something darker, gritter then what we have seen so far in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). And it delivered with that and so much more.
With a great storyline that hooks the audience from the first episode we are treated to awesome fight scenes, surprise twists and quality acting. Most notable of those actors are Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock/Daredevil, Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson and Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk.
Charlie Cox plays Matt Murdock superbly, playing the Lawyer side with intelligence, wit and emotion while also playing a dark and gritty Daredevil, bring over some of that emotion Elden Henson plays a character who is mostly supporting but has some scene stealing moments and has great chemistry with all he shares scenes with. Vincent D'Onofrio brings compassion and tenderness to a character who is also a blood thirsty and in some case psychotic killer.
If you love a intelligent, powerful and master class TV show you can get addicted to then I highly suggest you give Daredevil a go.
Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
Greatness of the galaxy
Guardians of the Galaxy(GotG) is easily the best comic book to film adaptation. It had the right level of action, inspired moments of humour and perfect bits of tenderness. The cast was fantastic, the script superb and the plot never went dull, from Chris Pratts opening dance to the final confrontation.
Chris Pratt's star-lord was simple amazing. A superhero protagonist who didn't take himself to serious yet didn't slip into man-child cringe. Dave Bautista, who I had reserves about, as Drax was a big win. He fitted the role perfectly, managing to bring love and care to a psychopath. And finally Bradley Cooper as Rocket Racoon. The cockiness, yet emotion he gave Rocket was terrific, not to mention hilarious.
Overall, best comic book film, best film of 2014 and my personal second best. I highly recommend it and implore anyone and everyone to see it.
