  Along with King Creole Elvis' best film, admittingly not a high bar to crest, he is in prime condition and great voice. Very sensual and surrounded by a quality production Elvis turns in a good performance as a surly up and comer. A film with an actual story unlike his later movies like Spinout or Harum Scarum this gives you an idea what kind of actor he might have become if the Colonel had not thrust him into one piece of junk after another. Judy Tyler although her part is limited gives a performs well as a self possessed young woman who helps put Elvis on the road to success, sadly she died in a car wreck before the film's premier.

  This is my favourite Elvis movie, the story is cool and more realistic than his other movies. Plus, I love the songs. If you only see one Elvis movie, see this one.

• Tim S

  
  Fantastic movie musical, even showcasing some great acting talent from The King.

• Ken S

  
  This movie opens with Elvis beating a man to death with his bare hands... and then he becomes a pop sensation... How can you not love it?

  Loved the music, was horribly annoyed by the character and the way he seemed to get whatever he wanted despite being a total jerk.

• Lafe F

  
  An unrealistic portrayal of jail life.

• Michael G

  
  One of the better Elvis movies. If Elvis kills a man with his bare hands you better recognize.

  This movie has some great music! However Elvis Presely's chareacter was such an ASS! I mean I wanted to just give him a beat down. He was one cocky son of a bitch. It seemed like everything he wanted he got. The movie starts out with Elvis in a bar. From there he gets into a bar… More
  This movie has some great music! However Elvis Presely's chareacter was such an ASS! I mean I wanted to just give him a beat down. He was one cocky son of a bitch. It seemed like everything he wanted he got. The movie starts out with Elvis in a bar. From there he gets into a bar fight,ends up killing the man and is sentenced to 14 months in prison. From the title of the movie I would have thought the whole movie took place in the Jail,but nope. In fact only about the first 25 mins take place in the Jail. The rest of the movie is Elvis trying to get a record deal. So while this movie was entertaining,due mostly to Elvis's great singing ablilties, I dont think its even close to a masterpiece. Lets just say that the characters arent ones that I would want to make friennds with... Peggy Van Alden: I think I'm going to just hate you! Vince Everett: No, you ain't gonna hate me. I ain't gonna let you hate me.

  Some witty moments, but overall, doesn't do it for me in the least.
