Audience Reviews

Diana M Veteran CIA agent Ethan Renner is one of the best and most dangerous assassin in the world. But after a botched mission, he discovers that he is dying of brain cancer. With maybe 3 months to live, Ethan decides to resign and goes to Paris to spend time with his estranged wife and daughter. "The longer I was gone, it felt like the harder it was to come back." - Ethan Enter Vivi Delay, an elite CIA assassin. Vivi makes Ethan a offer he can't refuse, just this one last mission... in exchange for an experimental drug that may save his life.... Just find and kill the world's most ruthless terrorist, "The Wolf" "The Wolf is the most dangerous terrorist this world has ever faced. Only you can stop him. Question is: kill or die?" - Vivi Of course Ethan agrees, but with his wife out of town for 3 days, he has to look after and try to reconnect with his teenage daughter, Zooey... who he hardly even knows. "Good or bad, when you work for the agency, it becomes your whole life" - Ethan Ethan seams more at ease killing the bad guys than bonding with his insecure and resentful teenage daughter. Mixing both his covert hit-man work and the father and daughter time plays out with a lot of humor. What a nice surprise. I did not think Kevin Costner could pull this film off. Looks more like a Liam Neeson type character. But Luc Besson threw in some family drama and a bit of dark comedy with this action, spy thriller... And Costner is a good fit for this story. He is a dark, brooding, cold-blooded killer that really loves his family. I do think it is missing that cool Luc Besson's edge. I wish he had directed his own story. But still a very good, entertaining movie. Cast - Kevin Costner, Amber Heard, Hailee Steinfeld, Connie Nielsen, Tómas Lemarquis, Richard Sammel Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/16/23 Full Review yosemite s VERY underrated movie. Loved the plot, the squatters, the middle eastern guy, and many other aspects of this excellent story. Worth watching. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/09/23 Full Review Donald S I think there is a lot of potential with this movie that just wasn't realized. Their story about a Dad trying to come home and be with his family again will still keep one foot in his old life is a good one. Once you had the hyper sexual Amber Heard as his handler and cancer gets a little much. There were some funny and tender moments but not enough to make this movie more than okay. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/07/23 Full Review Sam B Love Coster in anything but this was cheesy. I wish he would have wacked his daughter and ended the movie early Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/15/23 Full Review Jacob T It was like a chick-flick for people who like action films. Cheesey and boring. Story was all over the place and the pace felt like 1 minute was an hour Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/11/23 Full Review Francisco R Horrible comes to mind! Not enough space to write the dumb, stupid and non funny scenes throughout this less than mediocre film. R U kidding me???!!!!! Laughable!!!! , Comedy ??!!!Wow, can't find the words….😡I'll probably brake up with my girlfriend who recommended it to me.

Critics Reviews

Noah Berlatsky The Atlantic 3 Days to Kill really cares about its parental themes, with neurotic and bizarre results. Aug 28, 2019 Full Review Mark Kermode Observer (UK) Something very special: a Kevin Costner vehicle that makes both The Postman and Waterworld seem fearsomely substantial. Rated: 1/5 Jun 22, 2014 Full Review Geoffrey Macnab Independent (UK) The director McG seems uncertain whether he should concentrate on the action or the family drama. Rated: 2/5 Jun 20, 2014 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies A mediocre action picture that never anchors itself enough to tell a competent story. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 25, 2022 Full Review Kip Mooney College Movie Review That the CIA has a quick-acting cure for cancer is only the fifth or sixth most implausible thing in this movie. Rated: D+ Sep 9, 2021 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse Costner has a world weary, easy charm here that helps sell the humor and he appears comfortable with the action. Rated: 3/5 Feb 1, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
