Elektra is a spin-off of the rather lackluster Ben Assfleck, uh, I mean, Affleck vehicle Daredevil. In both films, Jennifer Garner (who eventually married Mr. Assfleck, uh, I mean, Affleck) plays Elektra who, after being killed off in Daredevil, gets resurrected and becomes a hired assassin. However, Elektra has a change of heart about her career path when she's hired to assassinate a father and his young daughter and vows to protect them instead from this other band of assassins who wants to kill the young girl because of her special powers. Got all that? It's most certainly not the greatest superhero movie ever made, but it's not too bad. I've certainly seen a hell of a lot worse! Of course, the main reason to watch this flick is Jennifer Garner (and not just for her acting capabilities, if you know what I mean, and I'm, of course, certain that you do!)! Oh yeah, there's also a pretty hot kissing scene between Jennifer and her co-star Natassia Malthe who plays an assassin called--and, no, I'm NOT making this up!--Typhoid Mary. Need I say more?
Welcome to my Movie Blog!
Hi, I'm Tony, a.k.a. The Non Roger Ebert (R.I.P., Roger!), and welcome to my movie blog. First, let me start out by saying that this WON'T be any ordinary movie blog as I'll be reviewing movies you've probably heard of before or probably never thought about watching. Yes, I will review the occasional "mainstream" film (mostly to slam it!) and I'll be reviewing films both past and present (mostly past since I think most films released nowadays suck canal water!). I also won't be using any star ratings or thumbs up or thumbs down or anything like that since if you CAN'T figure out how much I love or loathe a film by my movie reviews alone then you're a dumb mofo, please exit the site NOW!!!! Along with the movie reviews will be commentaries on various celebrities and/or the so-called "entertainment" business in general. Enjoy!
This is just such a humorous review about Ben A..fleck, lol and this movie.
