3000 Miles to Graceland (2001)

It's International Elvis Week in Las Vegas, where the strip is flooded by a sea of King wannabes decked out in jumpsuits and sideburns. But five of the impersonators swaggering into the Riviera Hotel and Casino are toting heavy weaponry in their guitar cases. It's the heist of a lifetime, orchestrated by ex-con Michael (Russell) and his cunning former cellmate, Murphy (Costner). (Warner Brothers)

A complete misfire, but not a completely uninteresting one - the idea of Costner and Russell basically swapping their expected roles is a good one, and it has an (admirably?) savage tone to the violence and action, but then too often tries too hard to be likable; Costner seems to be reprising A PERFECT WORLD, when he needed to be far colder and more savage - it's also unclear how "hardened" Cox's character is supposed to be, with her motives and attitude changing from scene to scene.

Well, the idea (plot) of this film is great but how it came out, is not. I rather liked this Elvis-theme and how it was followed throughout the movie. Crime scenes were executed very badly and can't even remember them.

There's nothing more frustrating than a movie you really want to like that does everything in its power to make you hate it. I dig the hell out of a lot of parts of the film (especially the action scenes and Kevin Costner playing a complete douchebag), but then you got Kurt Russell and Charisma Carpenter having themselves a big ole romcommy time - all in the middle of an R-Rated heist action flick. The second act is completely forgettable. First and third act are in parts kinda really good.

Kevin Costner plays a REALLY tough guy. And it's just as ridiculous as it sounds.

Kurt Russell does his best, but Costner just doesn't work at all, and none of anything Cox does makes any sense, the kid is (of course) annoying, Slater and Arquette are bad at everything, Ice-T and Howie Long look out of place, and on and on.

The best movie of Kevin Costner. Apart from that it could've been a lot better, without the phony acting of Courtney Cox and fucking lame romance scenes. Either you got to do it like True Romance or not do it at all. Those stupid, bad guy turns out to be a dad when he sees a woman crying (or can't control his dick), scenes really ruins the movie. AND this movie deserved a better soundtrack. Seriously man, it is Elvis. I would love to see a Tarantino or Guy Ritchie version.

Any movie with David Arquette and Christian Slater is off to a bad start. I think the movie would have been more interesting if the entire thing was the CGI Scorpions fighting in the beginning.

Entertaining for the first fourth or so, but the movie feels long and dull after about half an hour which is pretty bad.

"Saddled by a lame-duck director, this could have been a guilty pleasure classic, but Russell's return to the Elvis fold (he played the King in John Carpenter's excellent biopic) won't leave you all shook up."

Potentially clever idea degenerates into an overlong, bloody (and bloody awful) bore. All the violence is mindless; all the plot developments are brainless.

I have never understood the appeal of Elvis. This crappy heist movie is practically a love letter to the King.

A bloody picture with high style & several good lines. Moves pretty well with some nice explosions and a typical story/romance. Kevin "Can't Act" chooses a role where he just has to look cool & shoot stuff up, so he comes off pretty well. A decent ride.

I actually admire the film for how over-the-top and reckless it carries itself. It's layered with a lot of slow time, but when the action's going, it's a fun star-filled ride.

The two leads are having fun, but they don't get much help from this crappy director.

This is actually the worst movie I've ever seen. It starts off with animated robot scorpions fighting for some reason. Then there's a bank robbery, where all the robbers are dressed like Elvis. Most of them die, unfortunately 2 live, so the movie continues.
There's a romantic sub plot between Rusell and Cox, who plays a single mom that keeps abandoning her kid.
Then some driving, then Ice-T shows up and tries to shot people with 2 guns, while spinning upside down on a chain. Surprisingl

The only redeeming factors in this movie are a number of passable Elvis impersonators performing nicely. One of the worst films of the decade.

3000 Miles to Graceland is honestly a stupid movie but it has its moments and isn't completely forgettable.

Colorful direction a typically fine Kurt Russell and a riotous Kevin Costner can't save this exercise in tedium.
