Elektra (2005)

Being a superhuman heroine with a cover-girl face, exotic dancer’s body, and mystical properties that include the power to preview future events and the ability to regenerate from apparent death doesn’t shield a young woman from the crises of identity and purpose that plague regular girls of the same age. The difference is that when semi-immortal Elektra (2005) is faced with issues she’d rather not work through she goes into isolation mode and only emerges from her room to take on assignments as an assassin for hire. It’s dirty work, but who prettier to do it? But some jobs are more onerous than others, and when Elektra is charged with snuffing a single dad and his teenage daughter, the conflicted heroine enters her rebellious stage, and all hell breaks loose.
