Baltimore SunChris Kaltenbach
This sophomoric film has little to do with Elvis, and everything to do with putting as much carnage as possible on screen under the guise of art, poetry, choreography, taxidermy.

Charlotte ObserverLawrence Toppman
Like the Big E himself. It starts out fast, dangerous, sexy, confident, funny with an edge. It ends up confused, bloated, unable to leave the stage when it should. Read full review

Chicago Sun-TimesRoger Ebert
Here's a movie without an ounce of human kindness, 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. Read full review

Chicago TribuneMichael Wilmington
A mind-numbing, bloody, ridiculous experience.

The film isn't merely bungled. It's starved and battered by Lichtenstein. Read full review

L.A. WeeklyErnest Hardy
A mean-spirited, hyperviolent, stupid movie. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesKenneth Turan
One of those movies that makes you want to throw up your hands in despair, disgust, or maybe both. Read full review

New York Daily NewsJack Mathews
Showcased in 3,000 Miles are two of the longest, noisiest, bloodiest and most ludicrous shootouts ever staged. Read full review

Philadelphia InquirerCarrie Rickey
If there were a truth-in-titling law, the movie would be called "3000 Bullets to Brain Death."

Portland OregonianShawn Levy
A vile, stupid and ugly movie lacking utterly in pep, thrills, humor, finesse or morals, a dissipating waste of time, money and human resources.

SalonStephanie Zacharek
It's a movie barely fit for a cretin, much less a King. If you hear a door slam in the theater, you'll know that Elvis has left the building -- in disgust. Read full review

San Francisco ChroniclePeter Stack
An overstuffed, underfed numbskull movie. Read full review

Seattle Post-IntelligencerWilliam Arnold
So violent and junky it seems to have been designed as evidence for the growing congressional movement to censor Hollywood. Read full review

The New York TimesA.O. Scott
This bloated spectacle has all the get-up-and-go of one of the legendary late-era Elvis Presley concerts. The picture feels longer than Presley's career and as irrelevant as he was by the end. Read full review

TimeRichard Schickel
Courteney Cox is good as a sexy, hard-pressed single mom, but she alone can't redeem the prevailing stupidity.

TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonagh
This coarse, nearly incoherent action picture apparently aspires to a 'Pulp Fiction"-like mixture of brutality and self-referential insouciance. Read full review

Village VoiceMichael Atkinson
Costner's not a mannered showboat, and what we get isn't a riff—it's a semi-oblivious glimpse of bitter outlaw banality. Read full review

Wall Street JournalJoe Morgenstern
Nothing but miscalculation from clumsy start to chaotic finish, an action thriller with a cynical, shriveled soul.

Washington PostStephen Hunter
What you get is the V trifecta: vile, vicious and violent. Oh, and incoherent and stupid. A mess. A mean-spirited completely worthless film that can never give back the two hours it seizes from you. Read full review

Washington PostDesson Thomson
I suggest you think of this movie as another bad sausage from the Warner Bros. meat-packing factory. And you should think of this review as a government health warning. Eat this thing at your peril. Read full review
