Elvis Presley's seventh film was the first of his "Hawaii trilogy" (a group completed by Girls! Girls! Girls! and Paradise, Hawaiian Style ). While its story is daft--the King has just been released from his army-posting in Italy and returned to the islands, where he's trying to avoid working in his father's fruit business--the music, including "Blue Hawaii," "Almost Always True" and the beautiful "Can't Help Falling in Love", is not. Angela Lansbury plays Elvis's mother, who can't seem to get through to him. The film is directed by Elvis's frequent collaborator, Norman Taurog. -- Tom Keogh Elvis as a war veteran returns to the beautiful Hawaiian islands to re-adjust to civilian life. Elvis decides to work as a tour gui de and romance the lovely out-of-town visitors touring the island. Review: Great clean cut movie from the good old days. - Love this, I remember watching Elvis movies with my mum about 50 years ago. It was a real treat. Review: Elvis dvd - Great movie

For my wife?
Wife is an forever Elvis fan. Me not, but its me that puts music to the player in our house so thought one day I should surprise her. Choosed this since it got nice reviews and nice priced. She liked it and so did I! She gives 5 stars to everything from him so its best I write from here. What i liked most was the scenery and the nice music from the time he really could sing. Simple and predictable plot, amusing and enough tension to keep us looking also between the music tracks. The amount of acting and playing I estimate to 60/40%, which I felt was perfect. Maybe my wife is fan of Elvis, but I was more interrested in his girlfriend in this movie?. Audio was very good. Picture was mostly very good for an old production as this. Recommended!

Elvis is Tops
Watching this film with it's beautiful vivid colour location shots and it's catchy songs it is difficult to see what some critics have to complain about. Hawaii was an out of this world luxurious and beautiful holiday destination to 99% of us in the sixties and well out of our reach. Seeing it here in big screen rich colour lifted the spirits of 1960's kids.Elvis acting is spot on and Angela Lansbury is hillarious as his 'southern' mother.Regarding Elvis acting , young Mr.Presley had a natural eye and gift for making a script come alive = he was a competent and talented actor. It is so unfair that The Beatles films are regarded more highly, none of the Beatles could or can act their way out of a paper bag.The Beatles three attempts at acting start with 'Wax museum -pasty faced lumps- atrocious' ( Hard Days Night).And conclude with cringemaking ,unbelievably bad ultra-cheap home movie camera, absolute garbage(Magical Mystery Tour) I say this as a fan of both Elvis and the Beatles( I have their dozen albums from 'Please,Please Me 'to 'Let It Be')And when did any musical have an intellectual script - does this mean that South Pacific and Carousel are equal to Ibsen or Checkov. Of course not! Musicals are for pure enjoyment and that is what Elvis delivers!

Hallo Elvis Fans!
Jeder der Elvisblut in sich hat,sollte sich diesen Film gönnen.Meiner Meinung nach mit einer der besten überhaupt.Neben den tollen Elvissongs wie No more und cant help falling in love gibt es auch ein super Hawaiijanisches Urlaubsfieling.Angela Lansbury als Mutter von Elvis gibt hier eine super Paraderolle ab.Die DVD unbedingt zulegen,und das alles im guten altenTechnicolor und Widescreen.Romantic pur und gelacht darf auch werden.

Indispensable para los amantes de Elvis Presley
Una de las más famosas y mejores películas de Elvis con una gran calidad tanto en fotografía como musical. Rodada completamente en Hawai con sus paisajes y su colorido. Buenos actores secundarios.
