Three Days to Vegas

Certainly somewhere there are some people who invested money into the making and marketing of this movie.

Was it made for TV or was it a direct to video? Certainly no one at any time could picture this on the big screen at even the trashiest mega plex in southern California.

I bought it for $4.00, new at Barnes and Noble.

I sort of enjoyed Rip Torn, sort of.

And actually George Seagal, who I went in not liking at all.

It's just terrible.

I'll sell my copy for a dollar.

You pay the shipping.

If you have beloved actors, Peter Falk, Rip Torn, George Segal, and Bill Cobbs, you don't need Billy Burke, Coolio, or any other distractions. Massive talent is totally wasted in "Three Days to Vegas", with the blame falling squarely on the script. My neighbor's vacation films are about as interesting as this misguided road movie. If you want to see how to utilize a veteran cast with a good script, check out "The Crew". There really are no redeeming factors here, and watching these wonderful actors struggling with such weak material is a crime. I wanted to like it, but the shallow script cheats the audience, by essentially giving the actors nothing to work with. - MERK

I kind of liked it, expected a lot more though from the veteran actors though. Denis Farina would have rounded this movie up nicely if they could have gotten him for it.

The premise of the movie kind of kills it, it should have been a much smaller subplot, I think that most are fans of the familiar older actors and could have care less and done without the rapper, marriage, homo Thelma & Louis, and other distracting subplots. These seemed like deliberate filler more than plot vehicles.

The "Thelma and Louis" sub plot did have it moments, but it needed a better tie in to the main plot. These divergent tangents fragmented the movie a bit much and reminded me more of a sequence of skits than a cohesive story experience.

Okay, they have a great cast here with Peter Falk playing a golf retired man whose daughter is getting married to a Frenchman. He doesn't like her fiancé but prefers her ex-boyfriend Billy who he hangs out with on the golf course in Florida with his buddies played by Bill Cobbs, Rip Torn, and George Segal. The cast is solid but the writing needs an overhaul. While it's an entertaining film, there are some laughs along the way from Florida to Las Vegas like how they got rid of Taylor Negron (their bus driver) and Mario Cantone in the Deep South. That led to a Thelma and Louise and Bonnie and Clyde without being terrified or horrified by their crimes even their victims appeared unaffected by the robberies. Anyway, the film is okay and it has a predictable ending.

One of the worst films ever. Not funny, poor TV style cinematography, bad acting. Sad to see so many famous old actors barely able to walk, let alone act. Lead female Nancy Young can't act. Terrible direction. Sub-par with bad TV movies. Occasional weak jokes fall flat. Even the basic premise of the movie makes no sense. Somehow they are supposed to stop a wedding from happening but there's no logic behind their actions. Slow pacing made my wife stop watching but I suffered through it. The old men are supposed to be acting like they are young and horny, but it comes off as pathetic instead of funny. How did they even get the money to make this?
