Summary: Worst Elvis Movie EVER!!!!
Review: This has to be one of the worst movies of all time! Forget that for a moment and let me say that this the worst Elvis movie Ever! I wonder how much drugs Elvis consumed during and after this miserable piece of crap was made. Dont waste your time or money with this piece of junk. Perhaps you folks with a sadistic suicidial side to yourself will enjoy this dreck before blowing your brains out or overdosing. This "film" would make the most "cheery" of people running out of the nearest hundered story window or throwing themselves under a freight train. PROCEED WITH CAUTION! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Summary: The Most Entertaining Mess...a Real Howler
Review: Words fail to describe how awful this film is...and yet, I have not enjoyed watching a movie this much in a long, long time. It is screamingly funny, albeit in mostly unintentional ways. The dialog is somewhere south of stupid; the sets look as fake and cheap as the backyard of "The Brady Bunch"; the costumes seem to be from someone's attic; and the music is vapid and cheesier than a vat of Velveeta. There is one very creepy sequence where Elvis' character encourages an overly precocious young girl to dance "seductively" for him, and of course, racist stereotyping abounds throughout. Elvis gamely tries to make his character credible, but at times, I think he deserves an Oscar simply for not rolling his eyes. By all means, see this movie with someone you love, and be prepared to hoot like a tree full of owls. This one makes CLAMBAKE look like CITIZEN KANE.
