Not to be undone by her husband, Jennifer Garner delivers a serious piece of spectorqular badness in this rousing epic about I’m not really sure what. This movie takes place a few years after Daredevil where Elektra was killed. Interesting thing is, like Catwoman it completely departs from the comic book universe and goes into crazy uncharted territory.
I was thoroughly confused and bored with this movie and found the special effects to be extremely tired. I also couldn’t figure out which country they were in. Parts looked like Japan, parts looked like Oklahoma. Somehow a Japanese mafia was involved, but all the other actors were American. Don’t bother seeing this movie.
- What to watch for if you are stupid enough to watch this:
- Jennifer Garner crying a la Alias. 4 full cries, 2 tears welling up in her eyes
- Jennifer Garner tearing a coat or cape off to reveal less clothing a la Alias. 2 times
- Crazy snake animation that really had no point in the movie.
- No appearance by Ben Affleck. I kept looking for him as the movie was so darned bad.
