The scene thats on everyones lips the Oldboy inspired fight perfectly epitomises Matt Murdocks determination and fighting prowess in just a few short minutes. Its raw, its bloody, and its beautiful. What makes this scene so special isn't just that it's so well filmed in one continuous shot, but also that it manages to convey a huge quantity of emotion just through Daredevil's movements. Already tired and broken from his previous encounter with the human trafficking ring, Matt continues to fight on in circumstances many other heroes would retreat from. Reinforcing the mantra that Murdocks always get up, each tired blow still manages to deliver a devastating amount of damage against his opponents, and illustrates immaculately just how well-disciplined the hero is when it comes to fisticuffs. Watching Daredevil get to work is a pleasure to see, and well enforces the belief that Murdock is one of the best fighters in the Marvel Universe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7fYIMEQ1Xw
