Watch Three Men to Destroy For Free

Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

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.

Odd French thriller starring Alain Delon about a man on the way to his weekly poker game who stops to help a man who crashed his car. Taking the man to the hospital he soon finds that people are trying to kill him for an unknown reason. What he soon learns is that the man in the car was assassinated and that he is being targeted to prevent him from talking in case the injured man said anything before reaching the hospital.The film walks the fine line between being a tense believable thriller with the fear of being on a hit list for unknown reason, crashing into the unbelievable elements of the story (grand conspiracy, going after our hero despite never finding out if he knows anything, the trail of bodies that clearly points to his innocence, why are they worried about Delon and not the fact that people see the assassins and on and on). The film really works at times (including a great car chase) and at other times makes you shot at the screen in disbelief (who wrote came up with some of this?). Its frustrating because it should be great instead its just okay.Worth a look so long as you don't let the internal inconsistencies get to you.

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.

"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!
