Ok. Everything about this film is terrible. I can’t think of one redeeming feature. It’s so incredibly boring it defies belief. The plot is rubbish, the ‘action’ is so bad it puts you to sleep and the acting is bordering on atrocious. Jennifer Garner is more wooden than a plank, and Goran Visnjic (the rather dreamy doctor from ER) is so miscast it’s untrue. And then there’s that hideous child – but don’t get me started on that.

I can’t believe that even Elektra fans would find this entertaining. In fact, if I was an Elektra fan I’m sure I’d have boiled over with rage. Unless, that is, that the Elektra comic is awful too. I would have turned this off half way through, but I love films so much that I wanted to stick with it in case it got better. It didn’t. I truly believe that this is the worst film I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot.

If you’re a masochist, then go for it and watch this. Otherwise, leave well alone.

Rating:

P.S. No, that is not a mistake – even 0 stars is being too generous.
