The 16th Elvis movie looks good thanks to cinematographer Lucien Ballard.

An entertaining Elvis film--and no, that's not an oxymoron.

Watching after almost 15 yrs. Good ..well done. Elvis may not be too proud of it but the Cast is a wonderful and he is Charismatic with Acting Abilities that are very good. I wish he was allowed to show more of it than what Hollywood would let him do! ✨✨✨✨

Roustabout is an alright film. It is about Charlie Rogers who is a leather-jacketed biker who's fired from a singing engagement. Elvis Presley and Barbara Stanwyck give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. John Rich did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama and music.
