last i saw was a germen flick intitled "Killer Condom"
- I was under the impression it was french...although it has been a while since I saw it...pretty funny - the detective guy is such an offensive motherfucker...


I just came back from watching Elektra...
Apart from the 101 things that get added/taken away and the standard messing up of the history that most comic to film movies always entail, I didn't mind it at all. (I have read most mainstream comics, so I cannot help but to notice these things)
Sure, I'd like to see Marvel go up to R18+ films someday, as titles like this would deserve, but for what it was, it's ok.
Simple plot, easy to follow...not dumb, yet not overly complex.
Great action scenes, some nice visuals too.
Elektra was portrayed far more efficiently in this movie than she was in daredevil, and even though played by Terence Stamp, (which I thought to be a pretty unusual choice) "Stick" was done very well...one of the better characterisations I've seen in this kind of movie.
I won't be rushing out to buy it on dvd, but it was overall pretty entertaining. People who liked her character in daredevil movie will most likely like her better in this one...
