Clyde Gilmour

Maclean's Magazine

A vacuous but commercially shrewd Hollywood comedy-with-songs indicating that Elvis Presley, now 28, has succeeded in building up a new "image" almost totally different from the unkempt, loose-hipped hillbilly of 1956.

Elvis was a good actor to bad Colonel Parker didn't let Elvis be in a movie where he did more acting then singing. That is what Elvis wanted. Elvis looked so good it was a fun and entertaining movie. Must watch for any Elvis fan.

I haven't seen an Elvis Presley film for decades and I remember them to be charming, entertaining and a visual delight. This then is no exception. A thoroughly entertaining escapist movie, beautifully shot - great fun!

Elvis works on a fishing boat and sings in a nightclub, all to earn enough money to buy back a sailboat built and designed by his late father. Fellow singer Stella Stevens pines after him while he dates Laurel Goodwin (Yeoman Colt in the original "Star Trek" pilot), a rich girl who's pretending not to be rich. Like most Elvis movies, it's an amiable light comedy that makes for a decent hour and a half's entertainment.

Cheesy but doesn't try too hard so ends up just plain ol' enjoyable- casual racism aside (not mean hearted at least, though definitely questionable). Too bad they didn't make use of the great 60s-tastic title, should a been more of a Casanova storyline.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Elvis's energy is great and the soundtrack is surprisingly solid. Too bad the script is so weak. Missed opportunity with great songs and Elvis looking like the perfect mix of what he could have been: a true Hollywood leading man who can sing and dance like no other.
