Movie Nuggets: Hancock, Wanted, Daredevil, Elektra - Page 2

Part of: Movie Nuggets

Elektra
As bad as Daredevil was, this was so much worse. It doesn't make much sense, has zero character/plot development, and is as predictable as they come. It's a how-to for making a crappy action/superhero movie. The fight scenes are boring (I actually groaned when I saw a bunch of ninja scaling the outside of a house, knowing a fight was coming) and everything is cut together so the exciting stuff is over too soon and the boring stuff goes on forever. God bless fast-forward. You don't even get a good look at Garner's better assets. Definite pass.

That's it for this edition. I'm sure I'll be back soon with more, as I can't seem to stop renting stuff. Cheers.
