Jeff M I had never seen an Elvis Presley movie before this one. While I'm certainly not a hater, I wouldn't necessarily call myself an Elvis fan. I was born a little late to fully appreciate his music and understand his cultural significance. It's not just him - I feel the same way about The Beatles and Marilyn Monroe. This slight but undeniably entertaining musical comedy is pretty much what I imagined an Elvis movie to be - light on plot, heavy on charisma and a few great musical numbers thrown in for good measure. What I didn't expect was that the star wattage of Ann-Margret would totally obliterate Presley into thin air. She lights up the screen, and you can't take your eyes off of her. She sings, she dances and she has that undefinable IT factor in spades! In comparison, Presley feels a bit wooden. Based on what little I know about Presley's filmography, I'm not sure he was ever paired with such a dynamic leading lady. A couple of the musical numbers here are really irresistible and deservedly iconic. Naturally, the plot and screenplay are afterthoughts - this is a star vehicle if there ever was one. I just never expected the star in question wouldn't be Elvis! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/08/24 Full Review Franky L This is a rather good Elvis movie, with the added bonus of Anne Margaret. These two sizzle on the screen, and Elvis' voice is why we watch Elvis movies. I agree with the critics. It's a solid 80+. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/03/24 Full Review Michele B this was one of my favorite simple storyline elvis movies. the music is great. the chemistry between elvis and ann was very noticeable and i loved how well they bounced off of each other's energy. the ending ruined it for me as it didn't make too much sense and almost felt rushed into but overall enjoyable for a simplistic movie Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/02/23 Full Review Anthony J Beyond badly dated. Corny acting, silly plot, a song and or dance number spontaneously breaking out every five minutes - mostly lousy songs and worse dancing. Truly awful. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/04/23 Full Review Karen S Since I was very young I enjoyed this movie with my family. Now that I'm an adult it hasn't changed. The chemistry between them is energetic and wonderful. They're both talented and you can see the admiration and respect they show to 1 another as they perform throughout the film. Would have loved to be on that set.👍 All the other members of the cast are just as talented and they make the movie an awesome flick to watch!🎞✨🎶✨🎷✨📽✨💃🏼🕺🏻✨🎤 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/13/23 Full Review steve d Elvis is still fun but it is one of his weakest stories.
