This fist episode introduces into the start of Matt Murdoch and Foggy Nelson as fresh lawyers in search of clients in Hells Kirchen, New York.
Already the first scene explains the backstory of Matts blindness and a flashback shows Matts relationship with his father.
This first episode shows already Matt as a Dark Defender, at day lawyer, at night as masked crimefighter (somewhere between Batman and Spiderman).
Visually some good ideas concerning the blindness of Matt and depicting his other senses.
Matt and Foggy take a case of murder and some gang leaders are shown (Chinese, Japanese, American/Irish, East European), who work for a mysterious crime lord.
All in all, this episode is a good start into the universe of Daredevil, with some mystery, dark atmosphere, some tough combat action scenes and feeling like a gritty crime tv show.
Highly recommended.
