"The Daredevil: Man Without Fear" is a neo-noir crime thriller that leans heavily into the psychological toll of vigilantism. Matt Murdock is a blind defense attorney in Hell's Kitchen who possesses hypersensitive senses. He is not yet a polished superhero; he is a bruised brawler wearing a makeshift black suit, fueled by Catholic guilt and an addiction to violence. The story focuses on a turf war. The old-school mobs are being swallowed by a mysterious corporate entity led by the reclusive philanthropist Wilson Fisk. Fisk is gentrifying Hell's Kitchen, "saving" the city by destroying its soul. When Matt discovers that his own clients—tenants being evicted and framed—are victims of Fisk's machinations, he takes the fight from the courtroom to the rooftops. The film deconstructs Matt's duality: the lawyer who believes in the system and the devil who believes the system is broken. It culminates in a brutal, visceral confrontation not in a suit of armor, but in a bloody knuckle-brawl in a rain-slicked alley, fighting for the heart of his neighborhood.
