Factual error: When Elektra closes her cell phone on McCabe, a dial tone can be heard. Cell phones don't have dial tones. Even if they did, Elektra hung up, so nothing would be heard.

6.8/10.A decent spin off from DareDevil. Jennifer Garner revives the Elektra character pretty good.I wish though she'd gone against The Hand's leader instead.Sort of like Vader vs his son.The movie itself while not perfect is far from bad like Superman 3 or Steel. I would say it falls in between decent and good.The biggest problem here is Garner who, at times, seems like she's almost delivering a half hearted performance as if bored.This from someone whose biggest movie up to this point was 13 Going On 30.She should've been more grateful.Still she's better than Jennifer Lawrence who seemed zombie like in X-Men:Apocalypse.
Abby Miller: You really kill people for a living?
Elektra: Yeah.
Abby Miller: Why?
Elektra: It's what I'm good at.
Abby Miller: That's messed up.
Elektra: Yeah.
Trivia: While filming a sai/sword fight, Will Yun Lee accidentally sliced Jennifer Garner's knuckles with his sword. After Garner got her knuckles patched up, and they resumed, Lee subsequently sliced her again in the exact same spot.
