As a whole, it was entertaining I guess, but some parts moved slow, some parts just felt like "We're a cool Netflix show so we gotta be cool", and mostly it felt like there was no leverage or character to what was going on. Like, Kingpin didn't seem very threatening nor powerful, we just sorta had to believe he was as powerful, corrupt, and influential as he was. Sometimes the plot seemed to get too focused on the detective/lawyer mumbo jumbo without really tying them into things. We get introduced to that old lady who got kicked out of her house for like maybe 20 min of runtime but the next 5 hours try to milk that 20 min. And so on. Some of the character development and relations felt rushed or forced, I hardly felt myself caring about any of the characters. Pretty much every fight scene was in the dark (I guess by nature of the show) so it's hard to even fully enjoy the choreography. Also how the fuck was he able to escape like 3 times at fucking gunpoint in an alley with nothing but flips n tricks.

Idk I think the most interesting parts were Matt using Sherlock abilities to notice things and some of the moral dilemmas he had with killing or not were kind of interesting, but overall I felt like it was just pretty shallow, like it had the structure of a good show, and it set up some interesting threads (Kingpin balancing crimelord tendencies with trying to be a normal person making sense of his horrible past, Matt vs Foggy's ideals on law vs vigilante, Karen blasting that guy), but nothing truly interesting or meaningful really comes out of it.
