5/10 Movie: Elektra (2005)
It was bad, just as many could of expected. Seen it on first week-end with free tickets so I did not waste any money on it. For a free movie it was acceptable. You should wait for it come on video. You’ll say why am I so mean! It’s quite simple, the story has nothing original, the pace is weird because the character developpement is almost non-existant. Jennifer Garner did a nice job and like her character was more important then the one she portraited in DareDevil. When you’ll see this movie (that is not a must!) you’ll get to see how they can screw up a potential with clichés and a bad picture finish. Alexander was better and had more fun watching it…

This movie was not as good as I belived, but better then the critics think! Forget about Keanu Reeves acting for once, he’s an actor fit for his character. I have to agree, the story is quite complicated but if you are carefull you’ll find the movie entertaining. We get to save the world once again, but this time we walk a fine line between good and evil. You could have lots of fun laughing out of confusion or like the small comic relief getting in the way. I’d think it was worth watching…
