    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Jennifer Garner reportedly told a journalist that she felt this movie was terrible, and that she only filmed it because of contractual obligations from Daredevil (2003).
    • Goofs
      The fact that almost every movie depicting a character associated with Greece is misusing the greek alphabet for example (capital sigma instead of E). Another example is Elektra's necklace that instead of H capital lamda EKTPA writes E capital lamda EXTPA. Movies are not meant to be shown only in countries that ignore the greek alphabet and it is rather offensive for the greek viewers.
    • Quotes

      Stick: Some lessons can't be taught, Elektra. They must be lived to be understood.

    • Crazy credits
      The Marvel Comics logo features comic-book images of Elektra in its pages.
    • Alternate versions
      There is a directors cut that is three minutes longer with some extra scenes.

    Elektra gets a bad rap
    The movie isn't particularly great. The story makes no sense and the dialogue is terrible (Terrence Stamp as a white haired English Yoda-type isa prime offender), but it compares favorably to Marvel's worst movies - Blade 2 and 3, the Hulk, Punisher, Daredevil.

    It's definitely entertaining, the villains are really interesting (despite one is called "Kinko") and the action scenes are a lot of fun. It could have been a lot better if there was more exposition about the villains. They were certainly the best part of the film.

    If you liked the comic, it's probably worth seeing. If not, you may want to wait for video.
