Amazon.com:
Opening with metallic computer-generated scorpions battling in a scorching desert wasteland, 3000 Miles to Graceland announces itself as one helluva nasty movie. A comedic wallow in antiheroic violence, the movie vomits off the screen, as if director Demian Lichtenstein--obviously a veteran of music videos--had mainlined amphetamines before stepping behind his oh-so-busy camera. In a futile attempt to out-Woo John Woo, Lichtenstein goes to extremes to achieve a kind of absurd in-your-face exhilaration, and for additional thrills, the movie gives second-billing to Kevin Costner in the most vile role of his career. As leather-clad Elvis impersonator and Presley bastard child Thomas Murphy, Costner's like a black-sheep brother to Raising Arizona's biker from hell.
With four accomplices including a fellow Elvis worshipper named Michael (Kurt Russell), Murphy storms a Vegas casino for a $3.2 million robbery that turns into a haywire bloodbath. Partners are eliminated, double-crosses abound, and Michael connects with a trashy sexpot (Courteney Cox Arquette) whose preteen son (David Kaye) is a precocious criminal in training. Murphy's on their trail, FBI agents are on Murphy's, and gradually things get really nasty. We're supposed to laugh at the blackness of it all, and sometimes the ballsy humor scores a bull's-eye. The road-movie action accommodates several twists of plot, and while Russell's enjoying a semireprise of his performance in John Carpenter's Elvis, there's something perversely thrilling about Costner's deadpan ruthlessness. But really, how amoral can one movie be without wearing out its welcome? Frenetically depraved, 3000 Miles to Graceland is like exotic roadkill: morbidly fascinating until you get a whiff of its stench. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - "Crime is King"!!!
3000 Miles to Graceland is filled to the brim with action. Michael, Murphy, and other criminals plan to rob a Las Vegas casino during Elvis convention week. They get the money kill a bunch of security guards while doing it. Murphy double-crosses them all and thinks he kills all the criminals who helped in the heist. Michael is the only survivor. The rest of the movie shows Michael, his new girlfriend; Cybil, and her son trying to help each other and stop Murphy from killing Michael and leaving the ... Read More
Rating:  - Fun, but it ain't Shakespeare
Starts off loud, be ready to adjust your volume for (and following) the opening sequence. Costner is good as a Bad Guy, sneaks in some actual acting, by golly. Cox epitomizes the sweaty slut, not so convincing as a concerned mom, which suits the story. Heroic Russell is a bad Bad Guy, also good for the story, and steals the show. Jon Lovitz puts in a nice turn too, nearly subtle, and Paul Anka (!) gets a laugh. Won't soon forget Howie Long's singing, either. Some funny Bad Sex scenes (best since Gunmen). ... Read More
Rating: - Time to go to work baby!
Everyone likes to dog on this movie, but I love it. I am a huge fan of Elvis and unadulterated violence and this movie has loads of both. Kevin Costner rocked in this movie. I recommend this anyone looking for a rough and tumble good time.
Rating: - One of Kostners best
A great action movie with lots of guns, humor, and action packed scene. I love Kostner movie, but have never been a fsn of his acting, he proved that he can play on hell of a villian though!
