A long but interesting movie about superstar Elvis Presley.
The star is the actor playing Elvis.
Cinematography is fabulous .
A movie that suggests that one Col Tom Parker was exploitive and used his cunning to make money to feed his gambling addiction.
I have to say that the actor playing this "baddie" was in my view a total mis-casting and awful.
Whenever he appears in the film all I see is Tom Hanks with body padding and other fakery and a ridiculous false accent.
What a shame that a picture with so many decent attributes is almost ruined by a massive casting error.
Nevertheless because of other winning attributes it is still a decent watch.
Six and a half rounded up:
7/10.
