Despite its ambitious blend of action and family drama, “3 Days to Kill” struggles to strike a perfect balance, leading to a mix of high-octane scenes and emotional moments that don’t always gel. Kevin Costner’s performance adds a layer of gravitas to the film, making it more engaging than its plot might otherwise suggest. The unique blend of serious action with attempts at humor and heartwarming family interactions makes for an uneven but occasionally entertaining experience.
