REVIEWS

Review by Panapa Williams (posted on 28-Feb-2005)

I thought Elektra was an amazing masterpiece, Big ups to the writer and director, Rob Bowman, Zak Penn, Stu Zicherman, and Frank Miller. And who could forget the beautiful and talented Jennifer Garner, you guys deserve the credit and the upmost recognition for an amazing storey of love, anger, violence (good verses evil), and what its like to be outragesly powerful in the physical form. Just like every body there are consequences and thats what made the story so realistic, and what made it more interesting is that every character had an alabi, Each and every character had their own uniqueness and special abilities, (forgotten the word but it starts with a 'C'), and the young girl with the bracellett that turned it into a golden whip! Amazing! The suprises you guys had instore really caught me off guard, that's why the bad guys were after the father and daughter, the daughter was a master herself, I could go on with endless amounts of pages about my view on the movie... but I'll leave some things for other people to write about.
