This soup-to-nuts musical biopic about Elvis Presley is a stunner.
Wow!
Sit back and enjoy.
Best if you’re watching “Elvis” on a big screen; this is 100% a BIG SCREEN movie.
No holding back.
Tom Hanks delivers the most superb performance of his legendary career as con-man/music agent Colonel Tom Parker.
Hanks delivers the goods in spades. This is the work of a dedicated creator of character.
Tom Hanks is truly an actor’s actor.
Likewise, “Elvis” proves to be director/co-screenwriter Baz Luhrmann’s best film by far.
As for the film’s lead actor, Austin Butler is phenomenal in his deeply executed portrayal of Elvis Presley.
Butler’s performance is much more than an impersonation. You feel in touch with the real Elvis Presley through Austin Butler’s dynamic use of acting craft.
Fire, baby.
Talk about range.
This young man has range to spare.
And yes, that’s Butler singing every Elvis song with his own vocal cords and skill.
Insane in the membrane.
Shut the front door, and listen to unadorned perfection.
Let’s just give Austin Butler his Best Actor Oscar now.
Credit goes to co-screenwriters: Sam Bromell, Craig Pearce, and Jeremy Doner for authoring a truly masterful script.
Film courses will focus on this movie.
Mandy Walker’s cinematography is strictly superb.
On fleek bitches.
Elvis Presley’s personal and public story is a cautionary tale connected to the turbulent American decades that witnessed political assassinations, rampant racism, puritanical assaults on freedom, and the best voice that you could possibly imagine, namely that of one Elvis Aaron Presley.
Baz Luhrmann and his truly gifted team of dedicated actors and filmmakers do Elvis Presley’s rich musical legacy proud.
If you only see one movie from 2022, “Elvis” is the one to choose.
Rated PG. 159 mins.
