i had the oppurtunity of watching this movie last week and here's what i think 'bout this movie;
marvel comics has once again brought one of its charaters to the big screen, Elektra.the story of this movie is somewhat a continuation of what transpired on daredevil (it tells of what happened after the events in daredevil since elektra's charater was introduced in that movie) but the story of this movie seems to stand on its own because none of the characters in daredevil were discussed.jennifer garner fans wouldn't be disapointed for she still do stunts and action scenes just like in her tv show.the movie is not that action-packed there were only a couple of fight scenes.the story also wasn't that good,for there a couple of things unexplained (like the existence of the HAND).the film wasn't able to have a good back story and character development.the only strength of this movie and what makes it worth-watching are its special effects.the special effects in elektra was simply superb!you'll be amazed in the effects in this movie, especially what they did to one of the character's Tattoo.cinematography was good,nothing spectacular though.this movie is short,you'll end up wanting for more but sadly there's nothing more.this movie is nice but it could have been better.so if you're not a fan of jennifer garner,marvel comics or special effects you may pass out on this one.its nice to watch this movie with your friends.
rating:3/5
*this what makes this movie worth-watching,the effects.
