Clevercell Very disappointing...

Stometer Save your money for something good and enjoyable

PodBill Just what I expected

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

C.J. Gish Elvis was a man who rose to the occasion for the big moments/challenges in his life and the 1973 Aloha special was -- what I always have felt - - his last true hurrah. Like so many accomplishments in his life, Elvis did it first and did it best. His vocals and appearance were magnificent in this concert. The song list was great with excellent performances of "Something", "You Gave Me A Mountain", "It's Over", "My Way", "What Now My Love", "Burning Love", "I'll Remember You", "An American Trilogy", "Fever", "A Big Hunk O Love", and "Can't Help Falling In Love".

Tashtago I have to say this was a disappointment. I'm an Elvis fan as well and consider the 68 ' Comeback Special among the best rock'n roll concerts ever done . Easily as good as the Who at the Isle of Wight and Zeppelin at the Albert Hall. But this clearly shows the King descending from the throne. Most of the performances are not among Elvis's best readings of his classics. He basically mumbles through "Love Me" and seems bored with "Suspicious Minds" . Especially that one (Suspicious Minds) does not compare at all to the original recording. Also there are about 250 back-up singers too many and the double exposure camera work with two shots of Elvis at the same time is dated and distracting. Check out 68' Comeback Special instead for far superior Elvis.

Callum Gee The most historical concert showcase by a single performer could only have been achieved by one man who was, initially, known by one name: ELVIS."Aloha from Hawaii" was the TV Special that combined both Entertainment and modern technology at the time - beamed live via Globecam Satellite to over thirty-five countries worldwide. This was the first televised concert of this genre. What made the event a more special occasion too was the fact that Elvis was doing this in aid of the Kui Lee Cancer Fund. The late Kui Lee, an Hawaiian composer, who wrote the ballad "I'll Remember You" which Elvis had recorded in 1966, had been a victim of the disease.It was truly a morning to remember - Sunday, 14th January, 1973 12:30AM Hawaii time - The Honolulu International Center with an audience of nearly 6,000 packing out the venue, and Elvis looking every bit as 'handsome as ten movie stars'. This was the pinnacle performance of Elvis' career and his renditions of classic material such as "My Way", "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry", "I Can't Stop Loving You", "What Now My Love", and "Welcome To My World" are all sung with consummate skill and filled with that wonderful 'Presley Passion'.The oldies, but goodies, are also in the set-list too including "Love Me", "Johnny B. Goode", "Blue Suede Shoes", "Hound Dog", and "Fever". But it's in another 3 song performances, that immediately spring to mind, when Elvis delivers the goods - "You Gave Me a Mountain", "Steamroller Blues" and one of his hits of the time, "An American Trilogy" - and this is a truly inspired adaptation of the Mickey Newbury song. Elvis proves he is most worthy of wearing the white American Eagle jewel-encrusted jumpsuit equipped with both cape and belt.This is one of Elvis' most inspired concert performances and is recognised as a Worldwide triumph in entertainment. Sadly, after this there didn't appear to be many more events that could challenge Elvis both on a personal and professional level...it did usher in the declining years...Aloha Forever!

Movie Nuttball Elvis: Aloha from Hawaii! If anybody wanted to watch a special feature concert on Elvis then this is it! In this you get to see Elvis do his incredible movements, him risking his life getting kissed by the women fans. There are many songs in this special event. It is amazing how spectacular this concert is. The King is something else here. His performance is incredible and hilarious! If you love Elvis then I strongly recommend that you watch this!Movie Nuttball's NOTE:The following notes contain some special info and the rest is is My thoughts. There was a special program many years ago called The Elvis Files. It was a two program hosted by the late great Bill Bixby. The show was live and it showed the evidence that he is still alive.Many years ago there was an edition of Sally Jessy Raphael and it had several guests there including Elvis' stepbrother, cousin, and friend Charlie Hodge. All three were against that he is alive.Elvis was a very unique man. He was one of the greatest singers and performers the world had ever seen. He was a very serious individual. He was kind, he could have fun, he could be silly but there was really a mystery to this man. What I am about to say here is all in My opinion and is My thoughts. Do I believe that his is alive? Since I believe in just about anything I really can't say that he is or he is not. I do know this however that there is something fishy going on and it has been like that ever since. If he is no longer with us then how do you explain the photo is Graceland? The telephone calls that sounded exactly like him? How do you explain all of the sightings? Sure the most simple thing to say is that they saw impersonators and people that simply resemble him but the people that say they saw him would swear that it was really him. You can believe what you want to but like most mysteries in the world this mystery of Elvis Presley has yet to be solved.Thanks for reading!
