Quick to shoot and ask questions later, this spy failed his Subtle Moves For Secret Agents class. Riddled with both plot and bullet holes this script assaults its audience with copious amounts of bloody violence and serendipitous stupidity.
#MOVIE THREE DAYS TO KILL HOW TO#
All of this is interspersed with bonding father-daughter moments, where Dad advises Zoey on how to fix her hair, how to ride the ugly purple bike he has bought for her, and gives her dance lessons to prepare her for her prom date. Incredible, Ethan is drawn into the game and is soon shooting up a storm on the streets of Paris and driving like a madman down the sidewalks. Was the IQ bar for CIA employees suddenly lowered? The fee for this miracle? He must kill one last man. Amazingly, without checking any credentials, our seasoned operative not only hops into the vehicle but also accepts her offer to inject him with a mysterious experimental drug that is supposed to cure his cancer. Inside is Vivi (Amber Heard), a woman who claims she is from the “upper shelf” of the CIA, yet looks much more like a femme fatale from a 1960s detective drama, complete with cigarette. Family relationships (and family friendly entertainment) fall off the priority list the moment a mysterious black car pulls up after Ethan finishes walking his daughter to school.

Convincing Christine that he wants to be the father he never was, she accepts his near-deathbed repentance and decides to leave him in charge of Zoey and their French flat while she is away for three days.Īnd that’s where my hopes for any heartwarming potential in this movie turned cold. Having just endured a violent confrontation in Syria, the news sends him into immediate retirement and leaves him with an intense motive to renew family ties. She also isn’t certain she believes Ethan’s promise he has quit his day job for good-until he confesses the cause of his sudden change of heart.Įthan has learned the persistent cough he has been nursing is actually lung cancer. Not surprisingly, his line of work isn’t conducive to maintaining strong family relationships, so when he suddenly reappears in their lives, Christine isn’t sure she wants to put the teen through the pain of seeing her dad come and, as usual, go again. In 3 Days to Kill secret agent Ethan Kenner’s (Kevin Costner) most important mission is to reunite with his estranged daughter Zoey (Hailee Steinfeld) who lives in Paris with his wife Christine (Connie Nielsen). Usually, I’m a sucker for a story that shows parents trying to build better connections with their kids.
