Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

BasicLogic A professional gambler on his way to the gambling house saved a guy who crashed on the countryside road and by not asked or checked first whether that guy was wounded badly or where his wounds were, he just hauled him out of the car, and again, didn't pay any attention to anything else. He drove and sent the he-thought-the-guy-was-just-a wounded-car-crash-survivor and a complete stranger to the hospital emergency. And again, the nurse and the two emergency workers didn't pay any attention to the condition of the guy in the poker gambler's car, just hauled him to the gurney without checking first what the condition of that person in the car with so much blood, until after you-don't-know-how-long, a doctor came out announced the guy they brought in had two fatal gunshot wounds. What kind of French hospital in the 80s was this? Emergency room didn't seem to have anything emergent. And the gambler didn't even pay any attention to his car's backseats, the blood on the seats and the floor? Anyway, the most stupid scenario was the gambler didn't pay any attention to the guy he helped sending to the hospital, he didn't witnessed the actual killing or assassination of that guy, why those two so-called hit-man bozos would bother to have him eliminated? For what? The gambler didn't even looked at the face of the wounded guy, albeit linked him as one of the assassinated three men.Furthermore, what's the purpose behind these killings? The French screenplay writers usually drafted stupid scripts without any logic. Delon just produced and played those cool but stupid roles with his handsome face.This is such a stupid and mindless film with non-exist logic. If you could watch on or even finish it, you'd better have your I.Q. re-tested.

morrison-dylan-fan Talking to a DVD seller about French cinema,I found out that he has recently picked up some titles starring Alain Delon.With having heard of Delon for years,I decided to join him in tracking down the 3 men to kill.The plot:Driving to his weekly poker game, Michel Gerfaut finds a man,lying in a car covered in blood.Rushing him to the hospital, Gerfaut discovers that it was all too late.Wondering about why that man was killed, Gerfaut gets caught in the cross fire and becomes a target for the killer.Due to the mysterious man selling faulty missiles. (next time try before you buy!) his former buyers set off a missile at Gerfaut.View on the film:Opening with a missile blasting on the screen,co-writer/(along with Christopher Frank and actor Delon) director Jacques Deray & cinematographer Jean Tournier smudge the movie in 80's cream. Heating the action scenes up in splatters of burning crimson,Deray digs into the early days of the decade with chic stylization,by painting the streets and Gerfaut's slick clothes in pristine white which give the wacky car chases and gun fights a real pop.Spun from Jean-Patrick Manchette's novel,the screenplay by Deray/Frank and Delon sadly lacks the over exaggerated sparks of the directing style,due to largely keeping most of the plot vague and confused,until a sharp Film Noir twist gives the flick the desired bite.Joined by a sweet Dalila Di Lazzaro (who also appears topless) Delon gives a good performance as Gerfaut,with Delon taking advantage of his chiseled looks to cast Gerfaut in a rebellious atmosphere,as Gerfaut tries to avoid the 3 men to kill.

Cristi_Ciopron Unlike many of his other crime movies that he made during the '70s and '80s,Three Men to Kill is an interesting, suspenseful and thrilling film.Atmospheric and quite violent, it benefits from a quite intelligent script (it is the adaptation of a book) and from Dalila Di Lazzaro's charming youth and freshness.Dalila shows her tits several times during the first part of Three Men to Kill (in bed;at the beach;in the shower)--it's a treat,like any nudity coming from Dalila.Jacques Deray made several films with Delon;this one has to be the best of them.(The Swimming Pool ,Borsalino (1970),Borsalino & Co. (1974) ,Flic Story (1975),The Gang are the others.)It may be concluded that Delon made his bad movies with José Pinheiro and José Giovanni--for that is the worst slapdash of his uneven movie career;and his better thrillers with Jacques Deray.Three Men to Kill is suspenseful,well-paced,paranoiac and it has even some moments of almost Bronsonian violence.So,it's what the delicate persons would call a piece of sleaze!Recommended movie.Delon's role here is atypical, as it doesn't illustrate anymore his famous narcissism ;Gerfaut is violent and virile, but it's not one of the risible superhuman heroes from some of the rubbish that Delon did in the '80s. Also Delon's performance is understated, in a commendable way.When I began reading comments on IMDb, I was expecting to find Delon adulated as a cult—actor; on the contrary, he seems to be more known than respected (on different artistic levels, Brando and De Niro are in the same situation—very famous, but not very respected).If you're looking for something as banal and clumsy and insipid as Delon's bad movies about cops from the '80s, then the suspense in 3 Men … will appear as deftly managed. It's good; the European look is surely adequate.

david melville "It isn't bad luck," hisses the lead villain. "It's incompetence!" In truth, what more can you say for a French film that sets out to emulate the very worst of Hollywood drivel and fails even at that? This atrociously-plotted thriller makes you appreciate the narrative finesse of Death Wish and Dirty Harry, while aging pretty boy Alain Delon (who also produced and co-wrote) is a sadly inadequate stand-in for Charles Bronson or Clint Eastwood.Delon plays a laconic gambler who rescues a dying man from a wrecked car. This turns out to be an assassination, not an accident - and Delon, as "the man who knew too much," becomes the killers' next target. This is frankly nonsensical, as Delon knows nothing about the conspiracy, and has never set eyes on the two assassins. Elsewhere, the same duo murder another man but leave his wife alive - even though she's an eye witness to the whole crime. And we're meant to believe they're afraid of getting caught?!Still, it makes an excuse for two gay hit men with appalling 70s haircuts to chase Delon all over Paris. Given his fondness for such ghastly fashion no-no's as white socks with black trousers and black shoes, I could sympathies all too readily with their murderous intent! It all climaxes in the most ludicrous, ineptly-staged car chase you're ever likely to see - but at least Italian sex-bomb Dalila di Lazzaro adds a much-needed touch of glamour as Delon's girlfriend.If this dreadful movie is of any use at all, it's for correcting the old stereotype that European Cinema Equals Art while Hollywood Cinema Equals Trash. True, the Americans may make more trash than the French...but at least they do it properly!
