Watch This Before You See Elvis

  • Elvis Presley was a singer, an actor, and a one-man cultural phenomenon - not to mention one of the few people who's ever lived that you can impersonate as a career. It's only fitting that he would get the biopic treatment, and now, thanks to director Baz Luhrmann, it's happening with style.
    The simply-titled "Elvis," which spent years in development before being further delayed by the pandemic, is finally being released in June 2022, and it sounds like it was worth the wait. Starring Austin Butler as Elvis Presley and Tom Hanks as his manager, Colonel Tom Parker, the movie has been described by Lisa Marie Presley as "nothing short of spectacular." Curious about this chronicle of the King? Then watch this before you see "Elvis."

      I like the performance but Butler just doesn't look or feel the same
      Edit: GUYS, I'm definitley looking foward to the film and I think it'll be good, im just thought that He doesnt look much like elvis which sorta takes out the charisma Elvis had IMO. But now I realised I was wrong, his performance can definitley bring alot of neat stuff to the table and that this film won't be so centered on him performing and how the world loved him but more about the parts we don't see, his struggles and his downsides etc. so thank you for enlightning me.

      Austin Butler was the worst "image" of Elvis ever seen. Nothing, not one thing about him, reminds me of Elvis. Worst choice ever for that fairytale movie. Extremely ugly, eyes like a se serial killer, couldn't sing.... Couldn't even act!!!
      There are so many "errors" in that movie, so it's unbelievable. They couldn't even pick the right person for that role!
      And why is that woman Priscilla all over the movie, she was never an important person, even she think she was? Poor Elvis, forced into that marrige....

      Sorry but the movies was a bit fat zero based on what it could have been. Austin was great playing 1950's Elvis but after that he either didn't carry himself as Elvis or the script fell flat. The movie came of as a not so serious narrative story by Tom Hanks. It had the wrong vibe and wrong look.

My boss and friend at the time was a big Elvis fan, he even named his tricked-out truck King Creole on the side. Well, I was ok with seeing him perform I was entirely blown away by his voice, charm, and his all-out effort to build up what I would call a once-in-a-lifetime gig but after I realized that he did this for all his shows! I was mesmerized by the legend who was the man who gave it all every night! Thank You Elvis and RIP who after that day became one of my musical idols!

    Went to see the movie, it was really good, I loved the storyline I was really impressed with the movie and also sad Elvis was so talented. Everything that my mom told me about Elvis and his career was true based on how they portrayed history, that was my mom's era and she shared light on his popularity and that Elvis was considered a juvenile delinquent, my mom also told me that Colonial Parker was a concern based on news reports of that time.

      Nope he's being criticized by Gen Z who think he's overrated and stole from more talented black artists.
      Had this movie been released in 2000 it would do better but we're living in a more diverse less white centred world. New generation fans? Hardly. He's just seen as an irrelevant old white dude by many in Gen Z.

    When I saw the trailer, I wasn't so sure whether Austin would do Elvis right, but I saw the movie today and I was awestruck how he completely embodies Elvis. It is hard to fathom how utterly jaw dropping his performance is. If you love Elvis, you've got to see this. Even if you don't love Elvis. Ignore your reservations if you have them. Just go. You'll be floored.

      @@jenniferbrooks1178 I was 23 also (saw your earlier comment) when Elvis died. Devastated me also because I had been a big fan since I was 8 yrs. old. I did get to see him though. I saw him in concert in Oct. of 76. He was not the svelte person he had been years earlier but his voice was unbelievable. He belted out the song "Hurt" which was fairly new and he didn't miss a note. Years later I was talking with a guy I worked with (who was 6'6" and made of muscle) and he told me that he was at that concert too. He said when Elvis came out on stage with the 2001 Space Odyssey music playing that he got chills and goose bumps from his head to his toes. I told him, hey the same thing happened to me ( although I never wanted to admit it before but if he could so could I, haha). Anyway, it was a great concert.
