3 Days To Kill - 特務殺很大
3 Days To Kill (特務殺很大) is an 2014 film. The film stars Kevin Costner, Amber Heard, Hailee Steinfeld, and Connie Nielsen. The movie primarily takes place in France.
Kevin Costner is a life long CIA operative, Ethan Renner. So much so that he's alienated his wife and daughter whom live in France. After a assignment that leaves him unconscious, Ethan is diagnosed with a terminal brain cancer which has spread to his lungs. Ethan is told that he's got only a few months to live and "retired" from the CIA. Back in the real world, Ethan goes back to France to try to make things "right" with his wife and daughter. But his past catches up to him and he has to fight to keep his family alive.
This movie was pretty fun to watch. I originally thought the title meant that he could kill anyone in 3 days. But it was in reference to the three days his wife goes on a business trip and leaves him with the daughter.
Seems like a Liam career move here, going for the hard hitting action as a father figure. I like it, but the public didn't. Costner is trying hard to stay relevant. I thought this movie had endearing parts worth watching.
