Summary: DVD Coming In 2004...No Need To Pay $200 For VHS Copy!
Review: "Yes; PLEASE take me to the fair, once again. After all, it is not enough for me to just rent this DVD from a local store. I would love to have the opportunity to actually own this movie, for myself. This is, without a doubt, one of Elvis Presley's finest film achievements. His co-stars include Gary Lockwood (of future "2001: A Space Odyssey" fame), Vicki Tiu (the future First Lady of Hawaii), and Kurt Russell (yes- the very same Kurt Russell, who is a major star today). The songs are well integrated within the context of the story. And, the scenery- wow! The Monorail and the Space Needle really stand out. Plus, this film includes one of my favorite Elvis movie songs; the longer version of "One Broken Heart For Sale". I certainly do miss being able to actually have the chance to own my very own copy of this movie on DVD. Hopefully, it will get reissued again, soon. Thank you, very much!

Summary: Elvis is an A+ and worth all 5 stars
Review: After viewing this movie and a co-feature called "Girls! Girls! Girls!" in a double-feature recently, I am convinced that Elvis Presley was the greatest film actor of all time. I may only be 12, but I know a great movie star when I see one. Together, these two movies provided an extraordinary evening for me, especially when they were shown together on the same billing. I really enjoyed the songs; especially "One Broken Heart For Sale", and "Return To Sender". Thank you, Elvis!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent pure fun Elvis entertainment!
Review: As with many others, I wish this video were available to buy. Of all the Elvis movies, this one seems to capture his desire to be an actor of note within the context of another 'Elvis Movie'. Although predictable and typical, there is a magic about this movie. If anyone has a copy for sale, please let me know.

Summary: One of the best Elvis movies ever!!!!
Review: I remember watching Elvis movies on tv when I was young, when they had "Elvis movie week" during the afternoon. I can honestly say that this is the only Elvis movie I remember anything about, and that I remember actually liking it. What I liked most (now this was when I was 12 yrs. old or so) was how the little Chinese girl worked as matchmaker for Elvis and the nurse to get together. I just really loved it!! I also liked that Elvis was a very kind and loving man to a lost little girl. Now, I just saw this video again after not having seen it in over 25 years, and I was happy to find that I STILL like it, actually, I like it much better than I did when I was young. I was glad, because this is not true of all movies, Superman being an example. Well, this time I saw a lot in the movie that I did not remember. I especially liked when Elvis was with Dorothy in the beginning and he sings the song "Relax". It is just very funny. I liked his eye check-up scene with the nurse. I think Elvis looked very handsome walking around in a suit all the time. The scene of him riding in the monorail was beautiful and romantic. All I can say is that this is a GREAT Elvis movie, and all my children love it too. I think most of the songs are okay too, but the ending was a bit hokey. I hope this video will come back for sale because it really is one of Elvis at his best and most handsome.

Summary: I love the old movies of the Space Needle
Review: I would love to watch old movies of Elvis Presley and joan O'Brien who were in love and beautiful songs at the Space Needle's revolving restaurant.The old movie was made in Seattle World's Fair 1962 and the Space Needle when it was paint orange, red and yellow. The original paint was very short time from 1962 to 1968. I have Private collection of many original old color slides of the Space Needle when it was paint orange, red and yellow in 1962 Seattle World's Fair. I want let me know when the new DVD movie coming soon.

Summary: Elvis is an A+ and worth all 5 stars
Review: I'm only 25 but I remember my father showing me this movie. I loved it from the start, it really is one of his best movies. I enjoyed it then and still do today. It's timeless. Unfortunatly, it's not available anymore to buy new so if you want it - it will cost you, but it's a good one to own and will only continue to be worth more and more. Another one of his greatest movies is Jail House Rock. You should definitly check it out.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Entertaining Elvis vehicle for kids!
Review: If you or your family likes Elvis like I do, you must see this picture. I know this didn't get huge ratings but it's an entertaining Elvis film. I definetly like when Elvis and young Vicky Tiu ride on the monorail at dusk at the Seattle World's Fair and Elvis singing to himself "They Remind Me Too Much Of You" In this movie, Elvis has a big fight scene, as he always did in his movies. Elvis actually loved doing those fight scenes. He actually was fighting, but the crew was worried and said "Come on, Elvis, let's let someone double for you." Elvis refused and said "No, I want to do my own fights." I've first seen this when I was in second grade and I loved it when I first saw it, and still do. I know you're bound to enjoy it.

Summary: fun to watch
Review: My granddaughter has fallen in love with Elvis (she's gonna be 9) and there are certain movies of his that she wants for her collection and this one happens to be one of them and I can't find it anywhere! I called Blockbuster customer service and for whatever reason this movie is out of print as of February of this year. Their only suggestion was to rent it and make a copy of it! I see that there are alot of others who would also like this movie so until (if ever) they re-release it, this is the only way to get it or wait and see if it comes on TV and tape it.

How in the world can they stop releasing any of Elvis' movies?

I wanted to give my granddaughter this movie as her birthday present but now I don't know if I can.
