totally recommended. great cg, hot asscheeks, great action and best of all, no affleck.

8.5/10

I am buying the dvd.

The f*ck it is... I finally watched it last week... when will directors learn that you cannot make a drama action movie... in the terms that you cannot paint a picture as being mostly action in the trailers and then have the actual movie be more drama than action(i.e Hulk) and expect your audience to live it.

Elektra has it's moments but it's too unevenly paced... too many of the special circle of Hand folks die too easily(black guy gets a goddamn tree dropped on his head... tatoo guy is vulnerable while he's using his tatoo's and she simply walks up and snaps his f'n neck?!?!?!).

Only the head guy was worth anything... and after stomping the shit out of Elektra twice... she beats up with that BS sidestep stab?

No thanks.

Hell I'm a HUGE Hulk fan and I also love Ang LEe and even I can admit that there was simply too much of focus on drama in that movie and not enough action. Marvel seems to have gotten the hint though and looks to rectify that with the second movie.

OP is smoking crack. This movie is barely worth watching on HBO.

depends on what you watch it for i guess. I loved the eyecandy and mtv characterisation. Plague or whatever that chick was... the girl on girl action when she kissed Garner..

I haven't seen Elektra. The preivews looked like shit, but I just don't think Garner is all that hot. I'm a big Alias fan, and I think she's good on that show, but I just don't see how she gets all the "one of the hottest women on television" buzz. I'm not saying she is ugly by any means, but I also don't think she is all that hot.

Better than Catwoman?!

Better than Catwoman?!

catwoman was about a 0.2/10 in my book. This is much better. I watched it and didn't understand the hate. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A HIT... damnit!

I never thought it possible, but you are the personification of everything that's wrong with movies today.

 

[pestul]

Sorry man, don't know where you're coming from. It was absolutely dredful... no, I can't even think of one way to complement it.

Rottentomatoes rating for Elektra: 7%

I'm not saying the critics are always right 100% of the time, but...seriously, dude. It's pretty clear that this movie blows.

 

[belgurdo]

bunk

Elektra fails and so do you

 

[karasu]

The opening scene was really good, but it's all downhill from there. Garner was hot in a few scenes, but her Elektra looked too much like a crackwhore with that bad makeup and ugly outfit.

 

[olimario]

What I've seen looks like a USA show.

 

[Tedesco!]

It was so bad I am surprised Bruce Campbell didn't cameo in it.

 

[Desperado]

what no pics? bah.

 

[Fifty]

Wow.....I know his opinion was a bit off the wall, but banned? :lol ;p

Supporting a really bad movie is reason enough for ban. I agree with this.

 

[FortNinety]

I haven't seen Catwoman, but Electra has the worst final fight scene in comics to movie history. The last blow to the Kingpin if I recall correctly is a kick to the knees. A kick to the knees people.

that would be Daredevil, not Elektra.

I believe that you're talking about Daredevil. And I concur.

What the... Green Giant's rampant trolling in the gaming forum is ignored and deffending a shitty movie in the OT earns him a ban? Do I love the mod's randomness :lol

I banned him for something unrelated to Elektra OR trolling in the Gaming Forum. If I had seen either of those other things, though, I would have made it a longer ban.

Oops, my bad.
