- QUICK TAKE:
- Drama: A look at the life and times of the king of rock and roll.
- PLOT:
The film takes an imaginative and creative look at the life and times of the "king of rock and roll," Elvis Presley (AUSTIN BUTLER), from his formative youth through his early performances. Those catch the eye of carnival barker, Colonel Tom Parker (TOM HANKS), who persuades the up and coming artist to let him be his manager, while Elvis' father, Vernon (RICHARD ROXBURGH), will handle financial matters.
The influence of black music on Elvis' songs and his tendency to swivel his hips during performances end up driving some women wild, but also draw the disdain of white racists who believe he's a menace to society.
That, him meeting and eventually marrying Priscilla (OLIVIA DeJONGE), his desire to give his fans his all, and Parker's continued manipulation of him ultimately shape the King's musical career, life, and, ultimately, death.
- WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
- They will if they're fans of Presley or the films by director Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge, The Great Gatsby, etc.).
- WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13
- For substance abuse, strong language, suggestive material, and smoking
