This movie has everything in it.
26 January 2002 | by (NY USA) – See all my reviews

This movie is cute,funny, has action,musical. David Keith is a gorgeous man and does a great job as Elvis. The ending scene although unrealistic as is the whole movie was really awesome! I loved it. It is a shame this really didn't happen to the king because he could've used some "back to his roots" at the end of his life.
