Elektra" ist für einen Kinobesuch in keinem Fall zu empfehlen. Zu schwach ist die Story, zu schlecht die Schauspieler und zu billig die Effekte. Wer sich eine Comicverfilmung im Kino ansehen möchte sollte sich lieber für "Constantine" entscheiden oder sich im Heimkino mit "Spiderman" vergnügen.

From the moment Jennifer Garner showed up in her ridiculous, uhm i mean hot leather outfit, I started wondering if I really had the need to watch this movie. But since i was to lazy to get out of the couch and there was nothing better on TV, I decided to torture myself for a good hour an a half. Well there was Click on this other channel, but if I'd have to get tortured i'd definitely choose Jennifer Garner…

There's quite a fun scene where Cleavage (Jennifer Garner) stops Goran Ivanisovic and his daughter from being murdered. The rest of it is either incredibly boring, completely incomprehensible or hilariously stupid (there's a henchman with tattoes that turn into animals and attack people, Boobs has flashbacks to quite a difficult swimming lesson, and Terence Stamp is in it looking like a sunburnt lion) and it has some of the worst dialogue I've ever heard. The baddie genuinely stops in the climactic fight to say: "There is nothing you can do - and so the balance tips to me." Ooh, zinger.

I can't believe they would make both a Daredevil and an Elktra film, yet we still don't have Heroes for Hire or Black Panther. This film is kind of dumb at times, but it has some cool moments that make it worth seeing till the end.

Shitty story and ditto action-sequences make this a wasted potential; thankfully it's not overlong and we get a lot - but not enough - of Jennifer.G.

On first glance, it's difficult to figure out exactly what's so terrible about Elektra. Jennifer Garner is perfectly fine in her second turn as the titular killer with a conscience, and while the story isn't the strongest, neither is it incredibly weak. My first impression on watching it when it was released in 2005 was "Yep...that was a movie." There was no hatred, just a lack of caring. And that is, I believe, what the problem is with the film.…

(2nd viewing)I actually recalled this as worse, not to say it's good by any standards. Still. In parts it works, Garner hadn't yet gone completely boring, and I wasn't even that bothered by the kid. Actually kind of strange Kirsten Prout haven't gotten around to more movie roles since then. I'm not saying she was talented, but she had something.
There's obviously more wasted potential here than what's fulfilled, but at least I remember Daredevil as a lot worse than this...

There's nothing to say, is there? Horrible.

Indifferent superhero spinoff that gets much wrong, including Terence Stamp hanging around visibly waiting for the cheque to clear, but I like Jennifer Garner and movies with ninjas so it gets a pass. Not entirely sure where all the venom stems from, it's more just generic than actually bad. Hello to Jason Isaacs.
