Baz Luhrmann's expectedly electric biopic of the King of Rock 'n' Roll offers an arresting central performance by Austin Butler, as the peaks and valleys of Elvis Presley's performing career are recounted through the deathbed reflections of ex-manager Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks), the Southern Svengali who cannily trained the Tupelo youngster's charismatic gifts on the American public-and just as ruthlessly exploited them. Olivia DeJonge, Richard Roxburgh, Helen Thomson also star. 159 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Two-disc set.

It's about Elvis need I say more. Austin Butler did s fantastic job as his portrayer of Elvis. This is a great movie I saw it 3 times in the theater once on an airplane. Now I own it and, can watch at my leisure.

Got the dvd after seeing the movie in the theater a few times. Now I have seen the dvd over a dozen times with family & friends at home. It keeps on getting better & better as the more we see it the better we recognize the nuances involved in the telling of Elvis's story. Great direction by Baz Luerman & great background music & great performances by the actors in the cast. They all combined to do Elvis proud.
