Movie Reviews of Love Me Tender

Movie Review: "Love Me Tender" brought to the movies one of the most popular entertainers of all time, Mr. Rock 'N' Roll himself.
Summary: 3 Stars

Why 20th Century Fox felt that starring him in a Western would be successful is merely academic... When Elvis broke into gyrations and song, audiences were electrified...

The story--filmed in black-and-white CinemaScope-- was about a bunch of Confederate soldiers who stole a Union Army payroll and then discover that, just five days ago, Lee had surrendered to Grant at Appomattox, ending the Civil War...

Hiding the money, The Reno brothers (Richard Egan, William Campbell, and James Drury) decide to use it for themselves, and return home to the family farm and their kid brother Clint...

Presley was cast as a Texas farm boy who marries his cavalry-man brother's sweetheart when news of his brother's death filters through... But the brother--played by Richard Egan isn't dead at all and incurs Presley's jealousy by resuming his friendship with his former sweetheart the beautiful Cathy Reno (Debra Paget)... The situation went from bad to worse...

In his first motion picture, Elvis proved to be a rugged fighting man, a wonderful loving man and a terrific singing man... Hear him sing: "Let Me," "We're Gonna Move," "Poor Boy," and "Love Me Tender."

Movie Review: NOT IN COLOR (as advertised by Amazon!)
Summary: 3 Stars

Now, WHAT a major disappointment! Look at the product description. It says: "Format: Closed-captioned, Color, Dubbed, Special Edition, Subtitled, Widescreen, NTSC"

Did it say Black and White OR Color?

Did you say Color?
Yes, that's what I thought I saw, too.

There IS a colorized version, so Amazon leads us to believe this is IT!
Isn't that false advertisement?

I emailed them and demanded an explanation and a refund on that product!
Sure, I am a big Elvis fan and I already have that movie, in original Black and White.
I bought this one, BECAUSE they advertised it in COLOR!

So, people, BE CAREFUL, DO NOT buy this thing if you also expected it to be in color.
I give 3 for the fact that it's not Elvis' best movie, but I'd give Amazon a MINUS 5 points, if they'd have a negative rating system!
