Leave your thoughts about Strauss R: Elektra.
| FilmJerk.comBrian OrndorfElektra succeeds because of Garner's dedication to the character, and her willingness to go along with some rather outlandish ideas for a comic book adventure. |
| Movie Reviews in CroatianVictoria AlexanderIt's not Schindler's List, but it's not Catwoman either. |
| Milwaukee Journal SentinelPaul DoroElektra's story is as thin and simple as they come, full of genre cliches and established merely to stage one elaborate action scene after another. |
| Baltimore SunChris KaltenbachElectric as Elektra, Jennifer Garner does a high-powered, blade-thrusting star turn as Marvel Comics' ninja-inspired superheroine, bringing such unbridled energy and sexuality to her performance, one barely notices the movie itself. |
| Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionBob TownsendTrue to form, Garner creates a strapping action character with as many foibles as muscles. |
| Reno Gazette-JournalForrest HartmanGarner looks great in the Elektra outfit, but that didn't do much for the plotting and filmmaking, which is average to worse. |
| VarietyBrian LowryElektra proves no more than fitfully satisfying, a character-driven superhero yarn whose flurry of last-minute rewriting shows in a disjointed plot. |
| Fantastica DailyChuck O'LearyElektra isn't the Carmen Electra story, but after a while, you'll wish it were. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerWilliam ArnoldA poorly written collection of comic-book movie cliches that offers nothing new to the genre, generates very little in the way of action thrills and plays like a self-important, humorless rip-off of "Kill Bill." |
| New York TimesManohla DargisNo question, the film's best special effect is Ms. Garner, especially when she's in costume. |
