G.I. Blues/King Creole/Blue Hawaii [DVD]

I'm very pleased to get dvd.

For the price of a bargain DVD, you have 3 films that stars Elvis. GI Blues is always a favourite of mine as this has one of the best known musical songs in. It always uplifts me when watching it and I always seem to sing a long with the music.King Creole is without doubt, the best serious acting roles that Elvis did. The dark moody character that he portrayed and the brilliant music from the film make it a good one to watch. Probably if Elvis wanted to be a serious actor, then this is the film that would have secured him a serious role.Blue Hawaii is the weaker of the 3, but the visuals and location makes it still worth watching.Overall, a great set.

I have to disagree with the person who says Blue Hawaii is the weakest film of the three. I think it`s the best one.I love those blue Hawaiian seas, the sunny beaches, the palm trees, the lovely young people, the songs. I watch Blue Hawii time and again, whenever I feel like basking in its sunny, happy, youthfulness.It`s a feel-good film. I even forgive the fact that some of the songs are out of sync. with the singers` lip movements.

King Creole was Elvis' favourite film. One in which he felt he was approaching his hope of being a serious actor. The songs are good too. G.I. Blues is a light hearted comedy which shows Elvis' comic ability. It seems to me to be typical of the type of film which was popular in the 1960s. Both are worth watching. Blue Hawaii is terrible and sadly an indication of the direction his subsequent films will take. It was, though, a money maker and therein lies one of the reasons why Elvis never realized the potential that King Creole showed. Seeing these films packaged together was very telling. And sad.

Great movies

Yes, I agree with the reviews that emphasize that Gi Blues and King Creole are better, especially King Creole which I thought was really good. Blue Hawaii has some flaws for modern audiences especially with the name of one of the servants of Angela Lansbury's character ((who is incredibly annoying) as Ping Pong which personally, I cringed at each time it was said. Still, at least it exposed the innate snobbery towards local ethnic people in the plot.

This was certainly good value for money, as you get to see ELVIS in three different movies. I thought he acted very well, and as I hadn't seen these before, I really enjoyed the storylines. His singing has always been OUT OF THIS WORLD for me as his voice is MAGIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved the Wedding in BLUE HAWAII with the famous wedding songs. I will certainly never tire of ELVIS, because after all HE'S THE KING!!!!!!!!!!

One of the discs in this trilogy was faulty and unfortunately I was four days late to be able to return it . Being a brand new item there should not have been this problem . Not happy .

Jadis j'avais acheté sur Amazon ce DVD épatant pour tous les fans du ''king'', il est à présent à un prix que je trouve pharamineux pour certaines bourses et pourtant il vaut vraiment le coup pour se distraire agréablement en famille sans se casser la tête avec ce qui n'est certainement pas trois films aux contextures hautement philosophiques!Il était une fois un prodige du showbusiness à la précocité quant au sens musical, celui qui vient du blues, incroyable.''The king'' fut le plus grand rocker de tous les temps et tous s'en sont inspiré sans exception. La présence du ''king'' sur scène et même dans des films niais restera sans égale, son sens du rythme allié d'une décontraction au mépris d'une bonne tenue ''conformiste'', surtout aux USA à cette époque , stupéfient encore. Mais que dire du plus beau timbre de voix et de son émission si raffinée pour un rocker qui lui permettaient d'interpréter de si belles chansons d'amour si douces à des actrices magnifiques ou simplement sur ''vinyle''? Chapeau! Elvis.Alors, capitalisme ou pas, millions de dollars au vent, cachets hallucinants, manager plus que douteux, ne reste-t-il pas ELVIS et sa personnalitésans égale lequel Elvis se fichait de sa propre ''commercialisation'' surtout et même par un faux ''colonel '', faux ''Mister Parker''?! Ne reste-t-il pasun chanteur à la si belle voix de rocker et à la présence phénoménale qui continue à vendre ses chansons d'une manière stupéfiante en 2017?Billy.
