Review
Despite the odds against the next “one final job for a terminally ill ex-CIA agent” screenplay, 3 Days to Kill is actually quite an entertaining movie. The storyline isn’t filled with cliches and has a pleasant balance of action and drama.
The star roles in the movie are the freakishly detached “Vivi” by Amber Heard and Hailee Steinfeld’s portrayal of the agent’s daughter.
