Before long, Charlie Wolfe finds himself at the center of a major SNAFU, which threatens his livelihood, and even his life. Kill Me Three Times has been maligned by critics for borrowing too heavily from the work of more established filmmakers such as Quentin Tarantino or the Coen brothers, while delivering a sub-par love letter to the neo-noir genre.
While I can certainly see why critics may have reached this conclusion, I think it’s a bit unfair to the project, which stands perfectly fine on its own, in my eyes.
Sure, the hyper-violent set-pieces are reminiscent of films like Kill Bill, while the overlapping character motivations bring movies like Fargo to the front of the brain. Sure, the film couldn’t manage to secure one of the more well-known Hemsworth brothers.
But at the end of the day, Kill Me Three Times packs a fun and against-type performance from Simon Pegg, a semi-complex narrative, and an explosive climax that will leave you wanting more.
