Something I definitely might see


It's Baz Luhrmann, though. Be prepared for obnoxious over-the-topness.

Mixed bag for me, though overall enjoyed.

Dude who played Elvis was great with the look, voice and mannerisms, Hanks was solid as usual, his accent wasn't though.

What I didn't care for was some of the over-stylized bits and the use of modern music in 50-60s settings, took me out of the fantasy.

Bingo. My feelings exactly. The split screens and such. Less is more.

And yes, that is a huge pet peeve of mine. If you're doing a period piece, I don't want Nikki Minaj or whoever the f#ck it was transported to the time and place.

That's why it lost points in my book. 7/10.
