Coming from a huge fan of the MCU and an avid follower of the Netflix series, I'll admit I was disappointed in this show. The first two episodes were almost nothing but filler and exposition. Sigourney Weaver was essentially wasted and Alexandra might be the worst Netflix villain to date. Her motives were generic and confusing and I felt like I didn't even know her like I did Black Mariah, Kingpin, Killgrave, Cottonmouth or even Harold Meachum. Elektra was all over the place, she was brain washed, then she wasnt but still wanted to be a bitch, kill everyone and then die in Matts arms. Or the distracting hip hop music playing during the final episode.
I don't entirely hate the show, I'd say it's good but after so many great seasons of television from Marvel/Netflix it's easy to expect something better than what we got. Overall I'd say while this is a good show this is one of the weaker links for sure.
Daredevil Season 1 - 10/10 (Excellent)
