Bullseye Character Review
Bullseye is a fictional Character, a supervillain in the Marvel Comics universe.
A psychopathic assassin, Bullseye uses the opportunities afforded by
his line of work to exercise his homicidal tendencies and to work out
his own personal vendetta against Daredevil.
Although he possesses no superpowers, Bullseye is able to use almost any object as a lethal projectile, be it weapons like shuriken and sai
or seemingly harmless objects like playing cards and pencils. His aim
is uncanny, at a nearly preternatural level, but he has been known to
miss moving targets.
In the Daredevil live-action film he is portrayed by actor Colin Farrell. IGN's list of the Top 100 Comic Book Villains of All Time ranked Bullseye as #20..More about Bullseye Character Review, keep reading !!

Powers and Abilities (Bullseye)
While Bullseye technically has no superhuman powers, he has an innate
ability to throw virtually any object as a projectile with incredible
accuracy and with enough force to be lethal. He can accomplish many
feats with thrown projectiles that are impossible outside of fiction.
Some of his accomplishments include lacerating a person’s throat with a
thrown playing card, spitting his own tooth through a human skull,
tossing a paper airplane to a distant rooftop, and killing a person with
a toothpick thrown through a window from a hundred yards away.
Aside from his ability to throw projectiles with lethal accuracy,
Bullseye is also an expert martial artist and is extremely talented in
the use of edged/throwing weapons and conventional firearms. Bullseye has exceptional physical conditioning, with the agility, reflexes, stamina, and speed of a professional athlete.
Due to injuries from a multi-story fall, many of Bullseye's bones have been reinforced with strips of adamantium. This has increased his resistance to injury in unarmed combat. This
reinforcement also allows Bullseye to utilize acrobatic maneuvers
impossible for an ordinary human, as his bones are protected from
fracture. While Wolverine's adamantium was implanted using only stolen, incomplete notes on the bonding process as a guideline, and thus only his mutant healing factor allowed him to survive the process, Bullseye's surgery was performed properly by Lord Dark Wind himself, and thus included the special herb treatment which prevents the body from being destroyed by the implantation.
Bullseye has a compulsive need to study his targets' histories,
abilities, and relationships before engaging them. He employs this
information to attempt to anticipate his opponents' movements in combat.
This compulsion often crosses from the professional into the personal,
such as Bullseye's obsession with Elektra. Due to a mutual head injury, Bullseye was able to sense Daredevil's presence psychically for a brief time.
In Other Media (Film/Movie)
Actor Colin Farrell portrayed Bullseye in the Daredevil film adaptation. Bullseye has an Irish background, and his traditional costume was dropped in favor of a biker/metalhead style appearance: a reptile-skin duster (trench coat),
leather pants, black tank top, dark goatee, tattoos, multiple earrings,
and a shaved head with a bull's-eye branding on his forehead, although
he does jokingly request a costume from Kingpin. Prior to the film's
release, the comic book version of Bullseye adopted a near-identical
appearance but has since reverted to the traditional look, retaining
only the scar. Director Mark Steven Johnson credited Joe Quesada for talking him out of using the traditional costume.

In the movie, Bullseye uses shurikens
carried in his belt buckle as his main weapon, although he uses many
small objects, including peanuts, paperclips, playing cards, Daredevil's
billy club, shards of broken glass, and a pencil as back-up. He is
hired by the Kingpin
to kill Nicholas Natchios. Bullseye kills him with Daredevil's billy
club, causing his daughter Elektra to believe Daredevil is the killer.
Bullseye begins to perceive Daredevil a personal challenge, because he
is the only target he has ever missed. Later, Elektra attacks Daredevil,
seeking revenge, but soon realizes Bullseye killed her father. Elektra
and Bullseye battle, and he kills her with one of her sai
(in the Director's Cut, Bullseye deals more injuries to her and while
impaling her, gives her a kiss by biting down on her lower lip).
Daredevil chases Bullseye to a church, and they battle until Daredevil
maneuvers Bullseye's hands to be shot by a S.W.A.T. sniper, leaving him with wounds resembling stigmata. Daredevil grabs him and throws him out of a window, crashing onto the hood of Ben Urich's
car.
A final scene shows him hospitalized but still able to flick a
hypodermic needle with enough force and accuracy to impale a fly. Colin
Farrell was attached to the role in December 2001. Farrell, who had adopted an American accent for most of his previous films, was encouraged to keep his Irish accent. Farrell had to read Frank Miller's
Daredevil comics to understand Bullseye "because the expression on the
character's faces in the comic books, and just the way they move
sometimes, and the exaggerations of the character I'm playing […] he's
so over-the-top that you do draw from that. But it's not exactly a
character you can do method acting for... you know, running around New York killing people with paper clips."
