3000 MILES TO GRACELAND, 2001
Movie Review

It was an ingenious enough plan: rob the Riviera Casino's count room during an Elvis impersonator convention. But Thomas Murphy decided to keep all the money for himself and shot all his partners, including recently-freed ex-con Michael Zane. With $3.2 million at stake, the Marshals Service closing in, and single mom Cybil Waingrow and her son Jesse constantly confounding things, Michael must track down Murphy.

REVIEW:

Desert sky rolls across the horizon. The sun sets over the last chance motel, haven to strangers bound by fate, and chaos races in along dark, stormy clouds. Bullets shatter, sand turns red, and coyotes roam against the dark, and two lives are on a collision course, scorpions battling along broken roads. One holds to madness, but the other grasps at redemption.

Oh, what a night. Lives touched by crime could be washed clean in greed, but betrayal silences all wealthy dreams. And madness takes the wheel and flies 3000 miles to Graceland, where legacy was denied, and true love lies deep in a kiss, a kiss so sweet to hide all the lies. And lives torn are covered in green, but still the bullets fly. And justice dances among blazing fires, and redemption is locked, loaded, and fired.

Bullets slammed against his chest, and metal bruised his skin. But his life was still his, and he struggled to stand. And with gun in hand does he return to a motel, where fate waited to lock him to another, trapping him in a game of truth or dare, lies or trust, and love or loss, and one man waits to meet him on the road ahead, the tango of scorpions. And in the end, would death be waiting in the wings, or would redemption come and carry him away?

The final scene was set. Snipers were at the ready, waiting for their signal to fire, but another was ready for them. And two men stand toe to toe, both conflicted, but walking separate paths, and bullets fire, striking home. And gunfire erupts, but the villain won't surrender. And the hero is carried off, but the other goes down in a blaze of glory. And the dreams of wealth drift down below deep blue water, but a second chance rides along the waves.
