Elvis [4K UHD]

Product Information

There is only 49 minutes worth of extras here, not counting the 47 minutes of musical selections, but that doesn't really count, since it's just the movie. Some use of modern music might catch some’s attention and feel a bit off but I personally found it to work. This performance is a milestone in cinematic history, and it cements Austin Butler as a force to be reckoned with in the world of acting.

With an out-of-the-world performance from Butler and a weird, yet underwhelming role for Tom Hanks, the pacing and the film's length hinder it from being completely enjoyable.

Overall clarity is excellent, revealing pores in the actors’ faces, individual sequins in the costumes, and, unfortunately, the bad prosthetics on Hanks. Just a few weeks ago the studio unveiled a new Blu-ray series “Paramount Presents” sourced from new 4K masters for Hitchcock’s “To Catch a Thief,” (1955) starring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly; the psychological thriller “Fatal Attraction” (1987); and “King Creole” with Elvis Presley, filmed just before he headed to the U.It's breathless, especially in its opening act, where time periods slip and slide across each other as Parker’s narration gets the audience up to speed with Presley, and it could so easily disorientate… but it somehow seems a perfect match for the sequin-festooned, gaudily glamorous excess of Elvis’s life that, together with its established structure of taking part in Parker’s drug-induced mind, presents Presley in almost the only way that it could.
