Just me who thinks he blows most "superhero" actors out of the water?

So Daredevil is obviously a Netflix show. He most likely doesn't get paid a lot (well I'm pretty sure he didn't for the first season anyway).

Then you get all the actors who have played superhero roles in the hugely promoted Blockbuster movies released in summer. Most likely get paid a huge amount, but IMO most of them are bland. I genuinely think Charlie blows most of those big actors in those big films.

Am I alone in this? He deserves a lot of success. Sticking up for my fellow Brit (or shall I say my fellow "townie" as he grown up three towns away from me). The lads doing very well and it's about time to see more people from the South East of England making it out there.

I think he's fine...no real complaints here; however, I don't think he does anything that really stands out. I honestly believe there's 10-15 actors who would do just as good.

Again, this is just my opinion and I realize I'll get lambasted for saying anything negative about an actor on his message board.

I think Keaton and Bale as Batman, Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Hugh Jackman are all better.

Full disclosure...I haven't finished the first season of Daredevil yet, so there's still time for Cox to rise (pun intended).
