If a fan of the series skips Season 3, they won’t be missing much. Punisher and Elektra are gone and Fisk is again doing things for a better future, just like in the first season. Everything is even more far-fetched, more muddled and more of a stretch. Apart from perhaps a few episodes that stray from the classic triangle of main characters and bring a fresh wind to the plates (e.g. the Karen episode), it's same old same old. I can’t be bothered with a fourth season. Also, this season is missing an over-the-top single take scene like the stairs from he Season 1 or the prison from Season 2. And there's Bullseye, who had so much potential.

The worst and best moments in the history of the series in the third season, in which the height of its best moments is unfortunately offset by declines in amateur twists and the cowardly storylines of the supporting characters. The driving force behind the series is the inconspicuous, but all the more catchy "good guy who took a wrong turn" Ray Nadeem. The only character that is brought to an impressive point. For me, the entire season is ruined by a terribly sloppy last episode and the feeling that Matt is just a free rider in his series. My favorite series disappointed me as a result for the first time. If the creators wanted to make a dark, civil and heavy colossus, they needed to learn more from The Punisher. Because The Punisher never slipped into B-movie twists and Cimrman revelations.

There are dozens of ninjas, mysterious artifacts, animated corpses, secret sects, superheroes and who knows what else; Daredevil in the third season, he returns in the form of a nearly seventy-year-old thriller “Lumetov" style about the relationship between power and corruption, where Murdock's abilities seem almost out of place. This is Nolan's conception of (super) heroic material, not Marvel's. A gradual pace of narration (unlike other Marvel series, but for once justified) drawn by characters who, by their own actions, come into a whirlwind of causes and consequences, from which there is no easy way out. Excellently conceived concept of two sides of the same coin in the form of yin-yang pairing of Murdock and Fisk, dark, advanced and uncompromising, supporting characters (of which Daredevil is well half of the series essentially supporting character), a pleasure to look at. Paradoxically, one of the two shortcomings, it is essentially positive; frequent contact battles. With regard to how the whole thing is built, they are extra and their trigger is usually something that is forced and repeats constantly. On the other hand, they are well-done in terms of stunt men and choreography and they do not lack a tangible feeling of physicality, when you feel every punch, so you can't complain about them, especially when Daredevil is wearing in finally decent clothes. The problem, and unfortunately the fundamental one, is the final. All the while, it inevitably leads step by step to a fateful clash, when the two finally meet face to face, when the full scope of Fisk's multi-layered plan is revealed, when ... When nothing much happens, the three characters get into a fight and that's it. Murdock and Fisk don't even have a proper dialog; fortunately, this aspect is saved by the tense scene of Karen Page's visit to Fisk. This is exactly the style in which the final was to take place. Unspoken threats, hints between the lines, tense tensions and not simplistic bum-bum-ouch and end. In any case, an excellent season, which will hardly be followed up with dignity.

The anticipated third season is different than the two previous ones, but still excellent. Rather than typical Marvel, the series is close to those dark thrillers from the 90s where the bad guys rule (Kingpin has everyone under his thumb) and the new villain Bullseye is cool. Matt Murdock is really destroyed in this series, losing everything, learning to fight again, training and regaining his powers. He doesn't even put on his suit for the whole series and I'm not that satisfied action-wise (apart from the prison scene, nothing really impressed me), but the amount of twists, emotions, thick atmosphere and impressive dialogue is enough to make me extremely satisfied with the third season. 85%

A return to the roots. The Ninjas and Elektra are fine, but the confrontation with Fisk is much more personal for Murdock. The third season is very dark and full of loss, and all about revealing the painful truth. The writing is great; except for a couple of shortcuts, it perfectly captures the development of the characters from suicidal through depressed to normality and vice versa. Lots of emotionally intense scenes. Bullseye’s introduction works (Bethel is excellent), even though he only distantly resembles the same character in the comic book. The confrontations between the two rivals are exemplary and the fights are again breathtaking. Top-quality TV production.
