Rating: Summary: THRILLING MUSICAL-ADVENTURE! Review: The "Yoga is as Yoga Does" production number remains one of the most memorable moments in cinema. Amazing underwater photography still stuns audiences today. Truly a great film.

Rating: Summary: It had potential, but some songs ruined it Review: Yesterday (10-11-01) I saw Easy Come, Easy Go for the first time. As it got underway with Elvis in the Navy in charge of getting rid of mines, I thought it had a chance to be one of Elvis' best, particularly with the catchy title song and the fact that Elvis had trimmed down some from his 1966 efforts (he probably also did it as he was getting ready to marry Priscilla.)The basic storyline had potential, and I was really getting into the movie until the "Yoga" song and the portrayal of the beatnick theme that was popular in the 1960s. After that, you think "Elvis just going through the motions again. How can he let himself be treated this way by the Colonel?" The movie does make somewhat of a recovery as the race to the treasure begins and Elvis gets into one of his best fight scenes on the opposition's boat. Definitely boilerplate Presley vehicle that, with a few changes, could have been deemed among his top five movies out of the 33 he made.
