I absolutely adore Elvis Presley. He is my favourite singer of all time. However, I'm not a huge fan of his films and neither was he. As Elvis films go, "Viva Las Vegas" isn't quite as boring as most of them. The chemistry between Elvis and Ann Margret is obvious, there are some genuinely funny moments. The songs are hit and miss. Most songs are wonderful that really suit Elvis: "Viva Las Vegas", "Come On Everybody", "Today, Tomorrow and Forever" are all beautiful On the other hand, "The Yellow Rose Of Texas" is a bit bland. Far from his worst film. For Elvis fans, it's worth a watch. For the general public, I wouldn't bother wasting your time on any of his films, apart from "King Creole."

Elvis, as a singer, passable, as an actor, lousy.

You don’t watch this movie for the plot or the cinematography but rather for Elvis..... good looks and that voice.... that’s all that matters!
