Viva Las Vegas

Although my own personal favorite Elvis film is "Tickle Me" (1965), "Viva Las Vegas" is the last remotely classy film he made and his best musical in years. The Las Vegas locale enabled M-G-M to put in some rock songs--and... Full review

Viva Las Vegas is a highly entertaining and lively film, sparked by the chemistry of its two gorgeous stars, Elvis Presley and Ann-Margret. When Ann-Margret appeared on Larry King last year, King kept bringing up Elvis, but she wasn't about... Full review

I have always been an Elvis fan, but I've never really seen a movie with Ann-Margaret featured in it. I always thought she was just a (very) pretty face, but I feel bad that I only now know what a... Full review

Okay, I've seen enough Elvis movies to last the rest of my life. I've seen the westerns, the post army movies, the musicals, the documentaries. But this movie stands alone because of the performances of Elvis Presley and the beautiful... Full review

I used to not be a big fan of Elvis movies. For all of his talent with a song, his films (with a few exceptions) were basically all the same formula: a crooning playboy situated in (exotic location of your... Full review

Typical Presley vehicle with an extra drive. The formula for the stereo typical Elvis movie is here but its more fun and exciting than ever. Better looking women and locations and the odd few pleasant songs. This movie shows us... Full review

I love this film! Actually, every time that I see it I like it more. I'm biased, of course, being an Elvis fan (hey, isn't everyone?...if you're not, you should give it a try), but it's still an entertaining way... Full review

Elvis Presley as a Las Vegas auto enthusiast who has to choose between racing his roadster or chasing Ann-Margret, playing a curvy hotel pool manager who usually has the day off. Not a total success for the stars--the script is... Full review

Arguably the best of the standard Elvis Presley travelogue confections that comprised the majority of the films in his screen career, Viva Las Vegas succeeds largely due to the chemistry shared between E and sexy inferno Ann-Margret. Sporting the impossibly... Full review

Watch the section where Ann-Margaret sings "Her Rival" Song in a letterbox format. The camera starts from above and does remarkable movement (before the age of computer controlled cameras) and Ann-Margaret does all the choreography (including catching the toast and... Full review

If it's truly a memorable experience --a 'good movie' -- you forget yourself and become utterly absorbed in what what you're seeing. A classic 1960s date movie full of the era's optimism, it really operates as a series of loosely connected vignettes meant to highlight both Presley's and Ann-Margret's outstanding skills as entertainers. ...

Elvis is a dreadful actor, at least in the roles in which I've seen him, and "Viva Las Vegas" proves no exception. The film is bright and colorful and totally devoid of anything that might resemble reality. ... Full Review

The star´s musical career had already started to wane, and "Viva Las Vegas" was the last great gasp of air for this incredibly talented entertainer. He was still tremendously popular when "Viva Las Vegas" debuted and still capable of entertaining an audience and this is apparent in "Viva Las Vegas. ... Full Review

One of his best movies in terms of fusing his brand of music with the persona he projected is the subject of today's review of Viva Las Vegas HD-DVD , released in 1964 after his music career had been on the wane for some time; providing some of his best work thanks in large part to the lovely Ann Margaret playing his love interest. ...

There are a couple of reasons why this film is so much fun. Of course the best song in the movie is the title song, a rocking tune that still has a lot of appeal. Sidney includes some interesting shots to make the movie stand out. ... Full Review
