Reviews Counted:94

Fresh:12

Rotten:82

Average Rating:3.5/10

Consensus: While the premise sounds promising, the movie turns out to be a tedious and unnecessarily violent heist movie that's low on laughs and leaves no cliche unturned.

Runtime: 2 hrs 5 mins

Genre: Action/Adventure

Synopsis: A skilled band of criminals gang together with a goal to get rich at the 2001 International Elvis Convention in Las Vegas. Dressed to the nines as flawless Elvis impersonators and armed with enough... A skilled band of criminals gang together with a goal to get rich at the 2001 International Elvis Convention in Las Vegas. Dressed to the nines as flawless Elvis impersonators and armed with enough ammo and electronic gadgets to easily knock off any establishment, it's no surprise when, at the last minute, the deal goes bad. A wild action-adventure film with twisting plot and a kicking soundtrack by George Clinton, 3,000 MILES TO GRACELAND is a non-stop rollicking ride. [More]

Too much of the film is pure filler, visuals manipulated for onanistic purposes.

What movie was this again? Oh, that’s right, the new shoot-'em-up, 3000 Miles to Graceland. Hand me that checklist.

This latest example of violent amorality in contemporary movies is just too cluttered, disorganized and messy.

It should be banned from theaters on the grounds that anyone unwittingly seeing it is being subjected to cruel and unusual punishment.

3000 Miles To Graceland would have worked if even one main character were attractive as a human being.

Gleefully preposterous and at times blissfully inane.

3000 Miles to Graceland never finds the appropriate balance of comedy and mayhem to rise above the pack.

From its first jumpsuited Elvis to its last fireball, 3000 Miles to Graceland can be called meretricious, but not soporific.

It really is true how when you make a copy of a copy of a copy, the most recent one doesn’t pack the most quality.

It’s a shame the movie is ultimately so worthless, because the acting isn’t half-bad

With or without the ridiculous body count, this mindless movie is D.O.A. in a theater near you.

Lichtenstein apparently thought quirks such as the sight of Paul 'Having My Baby' Anka firing a rifle would be enough to keep a viewer entertained.

It insulted my intelligence, yes, but I still have some hope for the human race after watching it.

A sour and mean-spirited enterprise so desperate to please, it tries to be a yukky comedy and a hard-boiled action picture at the same time.

Wouldn't have a clue about human kindness or romantic passion if they launched up and bit it in the nose.
