Brief synopsis of 3000 Miles To Graceland

Crime Is King. Ladies and gentlemen, Elvis has left the building…with $3.2 million in stolen jack. As leaders of a gang who pull off a daring Las Vegas casino heist while disguised as participants in the town's International Elvis Week, Kurt Russell and Kevin Costner are armed, dangerous and sporting hunka-hunka sets of awesome sideburns. Awesome, too, is the film's supporting cast: Courteney Cox, Christian Slater, David Arquette, Kevin Pollak, Howie Long, Ice-T, Jon Lovitz and more. Get in, strap down, hold on. 3000 Miles To Graceland, directed and co-written by Demian Lichtenstein, is one kicky, volatile, heat-seeking missile of an action thriller.

Rating of 2 stars out of 5 Radio Times

Almost a decade after Reservoir Dogs, Demian Lichtenstein continued to peddle its brusque visual and verbal style in this tired indie caper. Moreover, he also over-indulges in the camera pyrotechnics that characterised his time as a director of commercials and pop videos. Kurt Russell gets to wear Elvis gear once more, as the leader of a gang planning a raid on a Las Vegas casino, while Kevin Costner attempts to kickstart his flagging career by playing determinedly against type as a foul-mouthed sociopath. But, for the rest, this is a crass and calculatingly excessive bid for cult kudos.

Halliwell's Film Guide

Crude, rude and hyperactive action movie that quickly wears out its welcome.

Rated - 4 starsA good nights entertainment

Don’t be like me and ignore this movie because of the title. Costner and Russell are great in this robbery and action film. A very violent and very funny in parts movie, the leading lady "Courtney Cox" looks very yummy and will please the guys.

Try renting this one, you will be surprised - its very good.

Rated - 5 starsElvis has entered the building....

Jamie Bishop from Newbury, Berkshire , 02/09/2004

I really enjoyed this film from start to finish, and actually cursed one of my friends when he phoned when I was watching the film.

It has a good story, a few twists, light comedy, oh and guns. Kevin Costner (who I have never been a fan of) makes an excellent villain & I would love to see more of him playing the bad guy. Kurt Russell plays the nice guy in a bad bunch, the old clich? of bad man making good.

The soundtrack is also very good and I thoroughly enjoyed the casino scene.

This won't make anyone's top 10 films of all time, but it doesn't offend, and makes easy Sunday afternoon viewing.
