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 are toting heavy weaponry in their guitar cases. It's the heist of a lifetime, orchestrated by ex-con Michael (Kurt Russell) and his cunning former cellmate, Murphy (Kevin Costner). The crooked Elvises steal away with $3.2 million, leaving the hotel in ruins and a high body count in their wake.

What to Know

Critics 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.

Extremely violent Elvis-based robbery for 17+ only. Go to Full Review Stephanie Zacharek Salon.com 02/27/2001
Lichtenstein grooves on bullets and blood and bedlam, but there's no grace, no drama, no sense of honor to the violence. Go to Full Review Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle 02/26/2001

There is such a thing as too much. And 3KMTG is much too much. Go to Full Review Joe Leydon The Moving Picture Show 02/21/2022
With his mean-stud swagger, brushed-back coiffure, scimitar-shaped sideburns and a wardrobe that reeks of white trash sartorial splendor, Costner certainly looks the part of a sneaky-snakey ex-convict with grand plans and a short fuse.

The Tarantino effect is very much in evidence in this trashy, senseless, and excessively violent actioner about a casino heist that goes uproariously awry. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Mike K Aug 10 Just hard for me to rate a movie with two good actors very low.i rate 35% See more Bt w @nijak Jul 20 old school, brutal, elvis preslay's heist. See more Declan D Jul 17 If you're considering this film...I say you should watch it....it's definitely not as bad as the reviews here. It's a bit of fun and not to be taken too seriously...seems like they have taken some inspiration from Quinton tarentino. And god damn Courtney Cox is hot in this. Just some fun action id give it 60-70% See more Jeanne J Jul 11 I don’t think most people gave this movie a fair shot. It tied up alright, people got killed on the way, and the level of humour matched the style, which was stolen from Tarantino, it’s worst crime. The kid was great, still acting. Kostner as a psycho was acting out of his comfort zone but was given a little back story, and he did it well. I did laugh out loud when he changed into a wombat. Russell was very good and as the ‘redemption’ character. I loved the Elvis impersonation scenes. Cox was the very sexy mum and she lit up the movie. It’s worth more than 15% Rotten Tomatoes 🍅 Oh, and watch credits to the end, a few funny out takes. See more Ed L Jun 25 Absolute garbage I should of walked out in fact the only movie I ever saw in theaters that I should of walked out on back in 2001 See more Gene S Jun 24 I thoroughly love this movie from beginning to end, it’s great fun. I watched it before I saw the reviews and they were way off. Because of the bad reviews, I think a bandwagon effect happened and people just jumped on hating on it See more Read all reviews
