ELEKTRA (2004)

Cast

Plot

Dead she was, lives she does. Brought back from the brink after her deadly encounter with Target, Elektra is taken in and re-trained by a mythical house of white robed goodies, and then dispelled when it becomes clear she loves a good fight. Now for hire as the ultimate assassin Elektra is contracted to kill a man and his teenage daughter, a simple job that backfires when she becomes emotionally attached to her targets and decides instead to protect them against the forces of evil. Elektra is an enjoyable enough action flick, Jennifer Garner looks great (I almost feel obligated to say that) and the fights are pretty good, but you do feel like you're being eased into a potential franchise, oh….. and not surprisingly the script sucks.
