In one of his most popular movies, Elvis Presley shared the screen with Ann-Margret in Las Vegas, easily creating the most electrifying teaming Elvis had on-screen. He's Lucky Jackson, a Grand Prix race driver working at a casino to raise cash for a new engine; she's a hotel swimming instructor - and the romantic action revs up from their first meeting. Veteran director George Sidney, combines the hormonal heat wave with fascinating sights of '60s Las Vegas.

Title: Fun movie, great remastering, beware of audio commentary
Review: This is a fun movie as everyone knows. RE: the DVD itself... the picture is fantastic, crystal clear. The 5.1 audio mix is great. Clearly some time, thought and effort went into the remastering of the film. However, the DVD bonus material is lacking. There's nothing much to the featurette (sort of to be expected). My main gripe however is with the audio commentary by "historian" Steve Pond. He doesn't offer much as far as info that most Elvis fans don't already know. Worse yet, he gets a couple Elvis facts 100% wrong. Here's the breakdown:1. He talks about Elvis' sense of humor, explains that it was lowbrow, consisting only of boyish pranks, etc. He paints a picture of Elvis being shallow in that regard. Nothing could be further from the truth. Elvis did get a kick out of boyish pranks, however his sense of humor ran the full spectrum of silly to sophistication. One of his all-time favorite movies was "Dr. Strangelove." Obviously there are levels of subtlety, irony, sophistication to that movie. Also, he was a huge fan of Monty Python (five years before that craze fully caught on in America, btw). And -- yes -- Monthy Python can be just plain dumb, but there's also a level of subversive -- yet insane -- intelligence to what they do. Elvis was also a fan of Saturday Night Live, etc. The list goes on. The point being, Elvis was NOT just simply about boyish "pie in the face" comedy.2. Steve Pond points out that "Viva Las Vegas" was the last Elvis movie where the producers put any real thought or effort into the production. Okay, that's a somewhat legitimate point. However, he lists two examples of later sub-par efforts that, in fact, were not sub-par -- "Stay Away, Joe" and "The Trouble with Girls". "Stay Away, Joe" was no masterpiece... but it does have its merits. For one, it's one of the few movies where Elvis plays an "adult" role -- he smokes cigars, beds down women without apology, etc. Also there's some great cinematography and use of outdoor location in the film. It's not just a typical fake Hollywood backlot like 90% of Elvis' movies. Add to that, Elvis is clearly having fun in the role. He's not just sleep-walking through it like say what you see in "Paradise Hawaiian Style."As far as "The Trouble with Girls" ... this is actually one of Elvis' better movies. It has a great supporting cast; Vincent Price, Dabney Coleman, etc. And, again, a nice use of outdoor locations. Also, it's a more interesting and adult role for Elvis. He's not some cartoonish G-rated "race car driver" or the like. He plays a charming con man, the leader of a travelling carnival. This role fit him nicely since he was something of a charming con man in real life. And again, you can see Elvis is having a good time, he looks great, and he's not sleep-walking through the movie.If you listen to the audio commentary on "Viva Las Vegas", just take it with a grain of salt... or several grains of salt. It's certainly not the definitive portrait of Elvis.

Reviewer: Wrong product Received. Bright and full Elixir is what I ordered. Didn’t look at the packet put the stings on my guitar and it’s rich and full elixer, making a 3000 gibson guitar sound like a jazz nylon tangle wood

Review: Pour se replonger dans une époque et le rock'n roll selon Presley.Image : Bonne - une fois passé le générique flou, les détails fins se voient jusqu'aux cheveux.Son : 5.1 Anglais Dolby True HD, très bon, mais personnellement cela ne me suffit plus, il me faut du HD Master Audio et l'impression d'y être, et d'entendre à la perfection la moindre percussion, le moindre grain dans la voix d'Elvis.Bonus : un commentaire audio que je n'ai pas encore écouté.Sur le film : c'est de la publicité pour les casinos et le tourisme autour de Las Végas. Le scénario est bateau (librement inspiré d'autres films plus dramatiques ou comiques de l'époque), gentillet : Elvis est un jeune coureur automobile indépendant qui veut percer mais perd son argent stupidement, distrait par une jolie blonde gentille comme un coeur mais pas d'accord pour tomber dans les bras du bellâtre dans la seconde - et cela tombe bien car il faut que le film dure plus de cinq minutes et il y a les numéros chantés à caser. Elvis limitant au maximum son enthousiasme et son déhanchement (l'âge et le comité de censure ? le mépris personnifié ? une tentative de jouer un rôle en particulier ?), c'est à la pétillante Ann-Margret de se déchaîner pour paraître incendiaire sans craquer une seule allumette, cela tout en ayant à endurer comme numéro principal une espèce de pastiche du pauvre de Diamonds Are The Girl's Best friend de Marylin Monroe spécialement écrit pour faire valoir Elvis, alors que ce dernier n'en avait pas besoin.En clair, ce n'est pas la meilleure comédie musicale des années 1960, ni le meilleur d'Elvis (ou alors Elvis est vraiment très surfait), mais la carte postale en HD fait plaisir à elle seule, pour le voyage dans le temps et la légèreté du propos. Et j'ai cru voir Honor Blackman (Goldfinger, Chapeau Melon) ou son sosie en choriste de choc dans Viva Las Vegas, rachetant à elle seule (si c'est bien elle) le manque de sexy général de la production : facile à repérer, c'est la seule des trois qui chante le refrain "pour de vrai" et qui a l'air d'aimer la chanson.

Review: 出だしのタイトルバックの映像を見た時、通常DVDとは変わらない程度だったのでガッカリしたが、本編に入ると素晴らしい画質になった。特にアンマーグレットのアップ時は化粧の詳細までわかるほど。音楽の音質はステレオ感がばっちりだけどセリフと音楽のボリュームに差があるので、セリフは小さく音楽は大きくその都度ボリュームコントロールしなければならない。そして添付のブックレットが素晴らしい。高級紙に鮮明の写真を使用。映画のワンシーンに加えて撮影風景や休憩時にファンに囲まれてサインをしている写真に、最後ページには二人の結婚式のシーン写真がとにかく鮮明な写真が使用されて感激だ。すべてを語りつくす事はできないがとても良い。紹介はされていないが30分程度の特典映像と予告編がついている。

THE END
