Elektra is a lethal synthesis of grace and power with the mystical power known as Kimagure: a limited ability to see the future. She survives a near-death experience, becomes an assassin-for-hire, and tries to protect her two latest targets, a single father and his young daughter, from a group of supernatural assassins.

Garner, who showed a promising comic touch last year in 13 Going On 30, does her movie career no favors here.

This doesn't exactly set the world on fire, but I was charmed by its old-fashioned storytelling, which is refreshingly free of archness, self-consciousness, or Kill Bill-style wisecracks.

Everything comes back to Garner, though -- and even when the movie takes itself too seriously, thankfully she never does.

There isn't a whisper of spontaneity.

Elektra shoves Frank Miller's eponymous cold-blooded assassin into a PG-13-friendly adventure.

Worth a look.

Daredevil's lady friend Elektra gets a solo outing in this insipid action adventure.
July 14, 2015
If the film isn't as bad as some others in the comics-to-cinema genre (Halle Berry's Catwoman has rather lowered the bar), that's not to say it's good.
July 14, 2015
The problem is Elektra is not among the most compelling of characters. She doesn't have enough humanity and the story not enough depth to sustain us between fight scenes.
July 14, 2015
Even the action scenes flirt with tedium.
July 14, 2015
The movie's dominant visual tone is bronzed grunge, and its emotional tone is depressive.

A none too Marvel-lous spin-off from Daredevil.
