Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Omer Levent First of all, the music was nice. The film started more like thrillers, horror movies. The first minute was beautiful. Unlike other hero characters, it is also interesting that they do not start as a loser. But the film is painful. The two days I had been aware, he had put his life in jeopardy for some, and he had a love on the third day.Apart from the absurdities and irrationality, the movie could be watched and withdrawn.I think the enemy characters are nice. Elektra was not a very strong character. But the results did not surprise him. It might be nicer if it surprises me. Elektra, one of my favorite heroes since childhood, did not surprise me. She was not very much a girl.
Ilikehorrormovies I thought I'm going to like the film like screw what critic think but it's bad. I want to like this movie but there's a bunch of mistake like it look like a great movie. What the hell happen? The main problem of the film is there's to much going on and it's annoying. The story don't make sense and they're a lot of plot holes. It's boring to me. I like Daredevil (2003) but this spin off fails but I didn't watch the director's cut so I might watch the director's cut of Electra. I don't recommend this film at all.Score: 2.5/10
Eric Stevenson Before the most recent "Fantastic Four" movie, this was the lowest rated movie based on a Marvel comic on RottenTomatoes and it certainly shows. As someone who was disappointed by "Daredevil" I never had high hopes for this film. I guess it wasn't really offensive or anything, but it's still really bad. There's just so many dumb things in this. Elektra didn't even show up in her uniform until the last fourth of the movie! Again, "Power Rangers" did this better. The special effects with the CGI are really bad in this and the villains are just laughable.From the very get go, the story is dumb. The villain is apparently unaware that Elektra knows what it's like to die, even though he just said she came back! She ends up falling in love this one guy and there's absolutely no buildup to it at all and it's such poorly written romance. I feel bad for female comic book fans seeing as how there has yet to be a decent movie starring a female superhero. I don't have much hopes for "Wonder Woman". There are these weird scenes where she keeps hallucinating a girl changing her age or her own age or I don't know, I didn't care. *1/2
Python Hyena Elektra (2005): Dir: Rob Bowman / Cast: Jennifer Garner, Terence Stamp, Goran Visnjic, Kirsten Prout, Will Yun Lee: Candy coated crap with only lavish production to gaze at. Elektra is a female assassin assigned to protect a father and daughter duo from a group called the Hand. These guys are bad. They are the kind of baddies who stole lunch money from smaller kids at school. Now they have demonic powers and Elektra finds it very difficult to perform her gift of ass kicking. The girl she is protecting is embarrassing especially when she leaps into action with powers of her own. Puh-lease! Director Rob Bowman makes things stylish while the screenwriter basically wrote what any kindergarten major would come up with. Jennifer Garner looks hot in her Elektra outfit but she is really there just to fight. She provides no personality to the role, and Terence Stamp is her blind mentor must have been so if he signed onto this project. Also featured in less than stellar performances are Goran Visnjic, Kirsten Prout and Will Yun Lee who will no doubt cross their agents off their Christmas giving list. While the special effects are passable, the film is about as suspenseful as an episode of Sesame Street. It is hardly a major comic book and its adaptation is among the worst of the lot. It was bad enough that she was featured in Daredevil. This is a pointless comic book crap that is less than electrifying. Score: 3 / 10
