FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Amy Adler Bubba Mabry (Jay Mohr) is a two-bit private eye in Albuquerque. As he explains, he rents a cheap motel room on a monthly basis, places ads in cheap places and has very little overhead. Even so, his bills are paid with difficulty. Then, oh glorious day, a huge bodyguard, JG (Mike Starr) comes calling and offers Bubba the chance to make some good bread. First, he must be led in secret to his client, Mr. Aaron (Robert Patrick). But, Whoa Nelly! Mr. Aaron is really THE KING, Elvis, who faked his own death. Now, although grey-haired, he's fit and can croon up a storm. So, what's the problem? It seems a man named Tank has been snooping around way too close and JG doesn't know why. Is he there to do harm to Mr. Aaron or just to expose the secret? Therefore, Bubba is supposed to key an eye on Tank. Simple enough. But, more folks enter the picture. There's the aging record producer (Joe Mantegna) who may have some dark secrets. Also, a woman named Bambi, a Playboy bunny type, is seen going to Tank's place. Also, another pretty gal, Felicia (Lindsay Price), has entered the fray with an unknown purpose. This is before Tank is found murdered, bullet through his head. Is Mr. Aaron going to be taken out next? This fun, funny film is on the sleazy side but still enjoyable. One of its strongest assets is the setting in Albuquerque, which is exotic, alternately lovely and seedy. Then, too, the cast of Mohr, Mantegna, Price, Starr and company are wonderful. Best of the lot is Patrick, whose Elvis impersonation is flat-out terrific. The ladies are dressed to the nines while an assortment of Elvis costume knockoffs are worn by a bevy of cast members, making for continued mirth. The clever script and energetic direction are also assets. Are you lonesome tonight? Then, get Lonely Street for it is one of those films which chase away the doldrums.

Irishchatter I honestly thought this film would have potential if there wasn't too much of dirty talk, bullcrap, gangs and slow scenes. I thought Bubba was really good looking for a detective-gone-Elvis type. It was a good idea for having a character being different and whatever but, not in a movie that wasn't well done! This movie would've been better off if it was redone again and this time, in a better Elvis style. Seriously, they should have not dissed the King of Rock'n'roll like that with this movie!Robert Patrick looked so much like Elvis, I really thought it was the real Elvis by looking at him. Unfortunately, he is not here with us today since 1977, so it does shed a tear a bit in your eye. I was surprised to have seen Joe Mantegna as the villain Jerry Finkelman, what has he gotten himself into?! He should've said no in taking part in this dopey movie! I suppose hes getting paid big bucks so thats probably why he got involved in the first case!I would not consider this the worst I've seen but, I think it would have needed a total makeover with regarding, the language, the clothing, the style and the storyline! This is why I am giving it a 4 rating because that is the way I see inside this film..

kidnevins I normally hate Elvis movies being an Elvis fan but this one was wonderful. Elvis wasn't an overweight clown. He dressed the way Elvis would have dressed and acted the way Elvis would have acted if he were still here. I love the Elvis song and whoever sang it sounded authentic. It was a little hokey but you have to suspend reality with a movie like this in the first place. How did makeup make Robert Patrick look so much like Elvis?! Even down to the lips which are nothing like the actors. The script was well written but the actors hammed it up a bit too much. I would prefer that they played their parts straighter and let the script make the jokes, but it still worked. Definitely a movie for Elvis fans. I would also recommend Heartbreak Hotel.

anspruchsvoiier Usually, I don't pick up B-Movies for the evening, but I had nothing else to watch, so I went with this one. I have to say I am pleasantly surprised. While the movie has the look of a low budget film, it certainly doesn't feel like one. The characters are cliché and the acting is exaggerated, but that is all positive, because it perfectly fits the comical style of the movie. Another strong point is that the acting performances were pretty stable throughout the whole film. Especially the main character is charismatic enough to keep you interested. He also does a great job narrating the movie by letting the viewer know what the main character thinks in certain situations.The plot is surprisingly fresh and keeps you guessing right up to the end, who the baddie is. All in all, this was a fun ride and worth watching. If you don't need big names and huge budgets to enjoy a movie, then this might be one you could enjoy. I know I did.On a final note: I have to give kudos to the people behind this movie, because B-Movies here tend to have 10-star ratings by the time they are released, due to the many fake votes by those involved. I hate this trend and I appreciate a movie even more, if people don't resort to cheap tricks like that.
