	Welcome to Hopenet!
		Assassin-for-hire Elektra Natchios (Garner) is revived by the Order of the Hand, a group of assassins who helped train her.
		We don’t see Elektra’s darkness that the movie hints--for example, made explicit in the comic book with her being a member of the Hand--so it is difficult to see her redemption.
		Elektra is a lost soul, we’re told that rather than shown this, with a tragic past that she hasn’t learned to get past or make a part of her.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Elektra
		Marvel Comics' Elektra was a late example of the former and an early example of the latter.
		Elektra was first seen in Marvel's Daredevil #168 (January, 1981), as one of an endless series of monthly menaces, but with a twist — this particular hired assassin was an old girlfriend of his, and he was as surprised as the readers to see her doing that sort of work.
		Elektra and her back-story were created by cartoonist Frank Miller (no relation to the Frank Miller who created Barney Baxter in the Air), who was then just starting to make his reputation in comics.

	MovieFreak.com - "Elektra" Movie Review
		When we last met Elektra Natchios (Jennifer Garner, 13 Going on 30) she was dealt a fatal blow by the nefarious Bullseye towards the end of 2002’s Daredevil.
		Elektra is a ponderous, overly melodramatic mess rambling incoherently from scene to scene and doing its best to leave the audience in a head-scratching ball of confusion.
		And for those that claim to be fans, Elektra finally dons the fabled red suit (and as deliciously sexy as it is I wish I had the figure to wear it) and Garner struts her stuff within it admirably.

	elektra
		The movie devotes a surprising amount of time to Elektra's psyche, including a domineering dad who made her do swimming exercises, a murdered mom, and a bad case of OCD that compels her to count her steps and line up her fruits and vegetables just so.
		My favorite character from Miller's older Elektra stories was always Stick, the blind, crotchety guru who trained her and then cast her out because she needed an anger-management course or two.
		As for Garner, once Elektra thaws out a bit and is allowed to show emotion towards the girl, Garner is on firmer ground and can safely drop her dead-affect assassin voice and act.

	Elektra
		Elektra learned the art of Kimagure from her mentor, Stick, who has the composure of a monk and the raw smarts of a street fighter.
		Elektra once was Stick's star pupil, but her inability to reach beyond her dark impulses led to her expulsion from Stick's training compound.
		Elektra has a contract to fulfill — to terminate a father and her daughter who are on the run from a group of ninja assassins known as The Hand — but that same father and daughter help Elektra remember the brighter days of her own life, when she and her father were together.

	Elektra (2005)
		Plot: Elektra Natchios has been raised from the dead by the martial arts master Stick and now operates as a assassin, having developed a near-mythical reputation for her lethal efficiency.
		Elektra was present when we saw the big screen version of Daredevil (2003), where she was played by Jennifer Garner.
		We perhaps don't see enough of the anti-heroic Elektra involved in her assassinating activities before she is granted her redemption, as though such activities are too dark for a heroine in a mainstream movie.

	TheMovieBoy Review - Elektra (2005)
		As the movie opens, Elektra, who has become a high-powered assassin as a way of dealing with the murder of her mother when she was a child, is instructed to travel to a remote island in the Pacific Northwest and await her latest assignment.
		The first twenty minutes of "Elektra" are sluggish, to the say the least, as Elektra travels to her designated destination and mostly sits around and meditates while thinking of key moments from her childhood.
		As Elektra, Garner's natural charisma is reigned back to barely a murmur, as she is asked to not do much more than mope around, kick butt when she needs to, and, during the climax, look good in a skimpy red number that would be more suited for a high-priced call girl.

	Orestez (Elektra's brother)
		(Elektra: Root of Evil#3 (fb)) - A drunken Hugo told Orestez that his mother was a whore and that he wasn't sure that her second child was his own.
		(Elektra: Root of Evil#3 (fb)) - Angered by his mother's open affections and his belief that she had become pregnant by a man other than a husband--and by his father's grief and subsequent drinking--Orestez hired men with a talent for cruelty to punish her.
		His father gratefully thanked him and asked him to come back to his family, but Orestez's shame was as great as the day his mother died, and he left them, telling Hugo to keep Elekta safe and teach her how to protect herself.

	Ready for More Elektra Natchios??? Daredevil spin off ... ~ SpaceCase
		The Elektra film will be set after events in "Daredevil," in which Garner's character seemingly died.
		Garner, 30, played the martial-arts master girlfriend of Affleck's title character, a blind attorney who develops superhuman senses that allow him to become a masked crusader for justice.
		Elektra, judging by the previews, looked a lot better than I thought it'd turn out to be.

		Elektra Natchios is the daughter of a Greek ambassador to the United States.
		Later, Elektra and her father were held hostage by terrorists, and Elektra (who studied martial arts since childhood) helped a masked Murdock defeat their opponents.
		Elektra later infiltrated the Japanese assassin guild known as the Hand (hoping to gain favor from Stick by eventually subverting the evil Hand and bringing their secrets to the Chaste.) Serving the Hand, they bade her kill one of her former sensei and soon corrupted her.

	Movie Habit: Review of Elektra (2005), **
		Elektra, a spin-off from 2003’s Daredevil with Ben Affleck, isn’t a massive misfire of Supergirl proportions, but it also is nowhere near the highflying success of the current Spider-Man franchise.
		Elektra and her ass-kicking ways were arguably the best parts of the Daredevil movie, but this incarnation isn’t merely a cheap ploy to resurrect the character and cash in at the movies.
		Elektra lacks that balance and matters are only made worse by the secluded locations such as the quiet of a lakeside resort (in off season) and empty country houses.

		An assassin for hire, Elektra Natchios's visit to the grave of her father is interrupted by a mysterious message from the ninja organization known only as the Hand.
		Elektra's movements are extremely smooth and natural, not so much moving but flowing from panel to panel.
		Elektra: Glimpse and Echo #1 may look like no other Marvel book being published at the moment, but it's also one of the sharpest looking ones they're publishing at the moment.

		Elektra is NOT a "super hero" and the movie does not try to portray her as one.
		Elektra is portrayed as she should be and not like that midwestern farm girl with huge lips played her in the movie.
		And Elektra is not portrayed as the nicey nicey girl that said big lipped female Ben Affleck portrayed her.

	Elektra Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		In this Daredevil spin-off, Garner portrays Elektra Natchios, who's been resurrected from the dead by her blind mentor, Stick (Terrence Stamp).
		Elektra is visually stunning: the costumes, the locations, the cinematography, the stars—all are gorgeous.
		But really, even Elektra's red outfit is designed to allow her moves, as opposed to Halle Berry's impractical fl leather getup in Catwoman (yet another bad movie about a woman who returns from the dead).

	Film Threat
		Elektra Natchios, the heroine portrayed by actress Jennifer Garner in the 2003 film version of Daredevil,” is making a habit of rising from the ashes, from the dead.
		Stamp plays Stick, Elektra’s blind former mentor whose action to banish Elektra from his training camp, due to her violent soul, helped lead Elektra to become an assassin in the first place, although Elektra was seemingly born to be bad.
		“Elektra, who appears to be a soulless assassin at the start of the film, can’t find it in her heart to kill them so she turns into a mercenary and vows to protect Abby and Mark from the Hand.

		Jennifer Garner recently starred in the girl-powered movie Elektra, the spinoff of Daredevil, in which Elektra Natchios was the titular character's love interest--apparently both on and off the set.
		Elektra is back, and she's totally pissed about that whole dying business.
		Elektra skips the movie's prologue, in which our sai-toting vixen befriends the Miller family, including their nimble and deadly scion, Abby.

	Elektra (2005 film) - Marvel Universe
		Continuing from Daredevil, Elektra is revived by Stick after dying from the mortal wounds she suffered from Bullseye.
		One of Elektra's main problems is that many devoted comic book fans felt that Jennifer Garner's portrayal of the sexy Greek assassin was somewhat lackluster and did not capture the spirit of the comic book character.
		Garner was criticised for being too "girl-next-door", as she is generally seen as the classic "wholesome American girl", whereas Elektra Natchios is an exotic, feral, sexual and often bloodthirsty character.
