Elvis In The Psychedelic Sixties,
By Sir George Martini "Verbalosity" (Fromage, Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Easy Come, Easy Go (DVD)
Elvis Presley stars as Lieutenant Ted Jackson, a Naval SCUBA diver, who discovers a sunken ship while deactivating a mine. He decides not to re-enlist and teams up with his former band member and partner Pat Harrington, the notorious maintenance man of "One Day at a Time" fame, to help him find a possible treasure in the shipwreck. However, the best character in this movie is yoga teacher Elsa Lanchester, who played the Bride of Frankenstein, co-starring with Boris Karloff. The soundtrack is excellent, with Elvis singing and strumming six wacky tunes, including the unforgettable "Yoga Is as Yoga Does".

It had potential, but some songs ruined it,
By
This review is from: Easy Come Easy Go [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Yesterday (10-11-01) I saw Easy Come, Easy Go for the first time. As it got underway with Elvis in the Navy in charge of getting rid of mines, I thought it had a chance to be one of Elvis' best, particularly with the catchy title song and the fact that Elvis had trimmed down some from his 1966 efforts (he probably also did it as he was getting ready to marry Priscilla.)The basic storyline had potential, and I was really getting into the movie until the "Yoga" song and the portrayal of the beatnick theme that was popular in the 1960s. After that, you think "Elvis just going through the motions again. How can he let himself be treated this way by the Colonel?" The movie does make somewhat of a recovery as the race to the treasure begins and Elvis gets into one of his best fight scenes on the opposition's boat. Definitely boilerplate Presley vehicle that, with a few changes, could have been deemed among his top five movies out of the 33 he made.

One of his worst films,
By A Fan (VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Easy Come, Easy Go (DVD)
If Easy Come, Easy Go is not the worst film Elvis ever did, it is one of his worst. Not that his performance is bad, but the script and storyline are. It was obvious that Colonel Tom was cutting back on the what he was paying script writers inorder to try to make a quick buck. Even the songs in this one are not very good. Movies like this one are what killed Elvis' movie career and reputation as an actor. His management should have been fired for getting him into this one!
Pass on this and get one of his early movies (Jaihouse Rock or King Creole are good) or maybe Blue Hawaii or GI Blues (they are far better than this one).
