Starts out fast, dangerous, sexy, confident, funny with an edge. It ends up confused, bloated, unable to leave the stage when it should.

Reviews for 3000 Miles to Graceland
A catastrophic debacle of the highest order.
02/23/01
From its first jumpsuited Elvis to its last fireball, 3000 Miles to Graceland can be called meretricious, but not soporific.
02/23/01
Rather than giving Costner a chance to reinvent himself, all this movie really does is give him an opportunity to overact, while the rest of his co-stars -- including Kurt Russell -- stand around looking bored.
02/23/01
Convoluted double crosses make this one more bloated than fat Elvis.

Top CriticThis is so relentlessly wrongheaded and downright ugly a movie that you want to call The Hague and demand an international tribunal be formed to investigate possible crimes against humanity.
02/23/01
The violence is brutal and, literally and figuratively, smacks of overkill.
02/23/01
Top CriticFairly entertaining.
02/22/01
Goes through all the usual motions of a heist film -- heist, betrayal, chase, showdown -- and then, in case you missed them the first time, it goes through them again.
02/22/01
There are some plot holes that appear to have been set up to be resolved but just got left hanging when it was recut.
02/22/01
It's violence for the sake of violence, and completely devoid of style.
02/22/01
The smirking dialogue plays especially poorly in juxtaposition with the excessive violence.
02/22/01
An entertainingly heartless movie, made with style, energy and a modicum of humor.
02/22/01
What movie was this again? Oh, that’s right, the new shoot-'em-up, 3000 Miles to Graceland. Hand me that checklist.
02/22/01
One of the bloodiest and mind-bogglingly dumb action-adventures since the heyday of Steven Seagal.
02/22/01
Elvis would write this one off as a jailhouse crock.
02/22/01
The problem for the viewer is finding a reason to give a hoot about any of these people.
02/22/01
This low-aiming actioner revels in cheap thrills and cheaper laughs that have already been fully exploited elsewhere.
02/22/01
With junk like this, only fools rush in.
