Movie Reviews of Girls Girls Girls (1962)Movie Review: LIGHT AND SWEET FOR ELVIS FANS Summary: 3 StarsGirls! Girls! Girls! is a 1962 musical comedy film starring Elvis Presley as a penniless fisherman who loves his life on the sea and dreams of owning his own boat.
The film was shot on location in Hawaii.
Nominated for Best Motion Picture - Musical at the 1963 ceremony. The winner that year was The Music Man.The soundtrack songs were recorded in March 1962 at the Radio Recorders Studios in Hollywood, California with the songs "Where Do You Come From" and "I Don't Want To" added to the music album released to coincide with the film's debut. The Leiber-Stoller title track was a hit for The Coasters in 1961 before being adapted for the Presley film. Besides the album itself, "Return to Sender" was released as a single and became a major hit for Elvis.
Several additional songs were recorded for the film and not released concurrently. This includes "Plantation Rock" which was not released until the 1980s (actor Rob Schneider himself a big Elvis fan, performed the song when he appeared on Late Night with Conan O'Brien in 1996), "Mama", which appeared on an early 1970s RCA Camden compilation and "Dainty Little Moonbeams" which appeared in the 1990s. The songs performed by Stella Stevens in the film have yet to be commercially released.
Summary of Girls Girls Girls (1962)Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 08/21/2007 Hawaii seems like an afterthought in Elvis's second island outing. Half the musical numbers take place on boats (including the seasick-making title tune) and half in a Trader Vic's-style nightclub, so there's little good use of the exotic locale. There's little use of that lovable dish Stella Stevens, either, who's relegated to "other woman" duty as Elvis courts bland Laurel Goodwin. Goodwin's a rich girl going incognito, while E.P. is a penniless fisherman who dreams of owning his own boat. You finish the plot. The King is in good voice here, although the songs are fairly weak, with some curious flings at calypso and flamenco mixed in. He comes to shoulder-shaking life for "Return to Sender," a sizzling number that shows how his entire being could be possessed by a musical moment. This movie doesn't have enough of those to boost it into the upper tier of Elvis pictures. --Robert Horton
