Elektra
Director: Rob Bowman Release Date: 2005 Runtime: 97 mins Approx Certificate: 12.
The Plot.
After her 'death' in Daredevi, Elektra Natchios (Jennifer Garner), is revived by a blind man called Stick. She spends a while training with them, but is kicked out of the dojo, due to a reason unknown to her.
She becomes a proffesional assassin and kills people for money. And is sent away on business to kill some, at the time unkown, targets. She goes to enter the place she is staying, and sees some shadows moving about. Who she finds is a girl called Amy (Kirsten Prout) who is her new neighbour. After a lecture about breaking into people homes, Elektra meets the girls father, Mark Miller (Goran Visnjic) and is invited by the daughter to go to their house for Christmas dinner.
When the identity of her targets is given to her and she see's that the pictures are of Mark and Amy, she has second thoughts and decides not to kill them. When they are attacked by supernatural assasins, Elektra decides she has to protect the family no matter what, while trying to uncover why someone wants the dead.
My Opinion.
Although I preferred and enjoyed Daredevil alot more, this film was still slightly enjoyable, and not the worse film I've seen for a while. The acting from Garnerr is good enough for her role, because in this film she isn't as smiley as in Daredevil and is basically just a killer, so she has to show no emotion throughout the film, until towards the end.
The girl who plays Amy, steals the show and puts the rest of the adult to shame. She does a excellent potrayel of her character.
The action sequences in this film are pretty good, especially the one fight scene between Elektra and Will Yun Lee as Kirigi amist a room of floating sheets.
The fact that she isn't really a superhero, does spoil the film a little, and that it brings in supernatural things makes it even less realistic and even though Daredevil wasn't extremely realistic, it still felt possible due to the fact there weren't men with snakes coming out of their back or women killing people with kisses.
This isn't the best Marvel film, not by a long shot, but it isn't the worse either and is definetly watchable to say the least.
