It's pretty tough to beat Jailhouse Rock in terms of sheer entertainment, but Elvis lovers are particularly fond of this 1964 hit. The Big E plays race-car driver Lucky Jackson, who arrives in Las Vegas for an upcoming Grand Prix race. Lucky's car needs a new engine, so he gets a waiter job at a casino and starts working his crooning charms on Rusty Martin (Ann-Margret). It's their on-screen chemistry that makes this flick a lot of fun; Presley never had a better costar than Ann-Margret, and their race-car romance is quintessential 1960s fluff. Then there are the songs, of course, including the snappy title tune, a rockin' rendition of Ray Charles's "What'd I Say?," and "The Yellow Rose of Texas." Viva Las Vegas is one of the Elvis movies that stands the test of time, when the legend was still at his peak. And if you're wondering if the King gets his car fixed in time to win the race, well, check out this digital video disc to find out. --Jeff Shannon

 Elvis is King August 21, 2005
This movie is typical of Elvis movies done in the sixties. It is a nice delightful clean romp of young people having fun with no foul language or perversions, or overtly sexual.
I should have been born 60 years ago... July 5, 2004
I'm all about Elvis. I'm 24 and my room is covered in his pictures. I LOVE this movie. I think personally that it's one of his best. I could sit here and watch him sing and move and never get tired of him. My favorite scenes are 1. when he's singing "The Lady Loves Me". And 2. when he's on her dance stage singing "My Baby Loves Me". Of course also when he performs the title song. I hope all avid Elvis fans have this movie in their collection.
 HECK YEAH! April 9, 2004
Evis hits the screen-he sings-he loves- he dances- and he fights, what else could you ask for! In this story Elvis is a down and out car racer that needs to get a new engine. Low on dough he strikes up a budding romance with ann-margret. Soon the whole screen is being blown apart with Elvis tunes and his fists! He rolls in the new engine and kicks booty all across the racetrack as he streaks to victory. Ann is a waitin and the big song at the end will blow you doors off. Thank you.... Thank you very much.
 Overhyped? You Decide. December 29, 2003
As much of an Elvis fan as I am, I can't help but think this is overhyped. It's an average type of musical, looks okay, songs average but take a deeper look and you will see cost cutting on a massive scale. Wobbly sets, a very sparse supporting cast, Elvis looks like Ken from Ken and Barbie with hair to match and Ann-Margret, who is not as popular or talented as she thinks she is, does a very average job - other actresses could have done a better job. After all, didn't he romance all of his leading women. This is viewed by many Elvisites as one of his best - just shows how bad the others are then! If you want to see what Elvis could really do on screen check out King Creole, Wild in the Country or even GI Blues if you want something more lighthearted.
