Steve D It is hard to care about what happens to these people. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/26/24 Full Review mark w Sooooo Slooowww and Boorrring. Every scene is dragged out in order to make the series last longer. Worst direction of the year. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member It is a little slow to start perhaps, but the amazing cinematography and mystery behind the car crash kept me occupied until the climax of the movie. There were a lot of thriller movies during the 60's that tried to imitate the Alfred Hitchcock style, and this film achieves suspense that can compare with Hitchcocks movies. The triggered flashback scenes through out the movie are very well done. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review joe m "The Third Day" started out ok with a sense of mystery as Steve Mallory (Peppard) crawls up a cliff, makes his way to a roadside tavern and realizes he has amnesia. The movie then just turns in to a muddled mess of misunderstood love, family intrigue and a corporate takeover. And the ending is just ludicrous. Other than the 1960's atmosphere and clothes, overall "The Third Day" comes off like a bad movie of the week version of "Dynasty" or "Falcons Crest". Not worth the time.
