bill t Awesome concert movie, featuring Elvis's comeback to the stage after a number of years. First part contains rehearsals for the event, and the second from concerts themselves, Like how you can tell from one concert to another by Elvis's jumpsuits. Love those moments of Elvis humor and people quickly laughing at his jokes. You know what I mean. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review s r An unstated filming of Elvis recording and then performing in Vegas. A Raw and unedited look at a live performance of the entertaining legend. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The concert footage is amazing, the rest leaves to be desired. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting additional LA & Vegas footage to the original. Not so much a documentary.... More like some studio & smaller dinner Vegas venues - footage. Never realized he was so goofy & funny. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member wow great show every singer needs to see it & learn how to sing & perform.... This shows why he was The King.... Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing! Easy to see why he's the King Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
