Elektra the warrior survives a near-death experience, becomes an assassin-for-hire, and tries to protect her two latest targets, a single father and his young daughter, from a group of supernatural assassins.
A short clip used in the trailers and TV commercials shows a ring of energy emanating from what appears to be the hedge maze that is featured during the final action sequences. This footage does not appear in the US theatrical release.
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.
(at around 16 mins) When Elektra is in a bikini after swimming, her wound can be seen on the top of her stomach. However in the previous scene, when she is underwater, there is no wound.
The Marvel Comics logo features comic-book images of Elektra in its pages.
There is a directors cut that is three minutes longer with some extra scenes.
