I've watched all elvis biographies/documentaries. Austin Butler transformed us to them days ........ I'm legitimately still in "awe" and in shock ! He was truly made for this role ! Every movement, even to the second Elvis drank a sip of water , he truly surpassed any portrayal of any singer/actor ....... I can't get enough of Butler , I've been a fan since he was a kid , this is his moment ! This is Austin Butler at his finest for sure ! It seems like the whole world can't express the magnetism of his portrayal 💪👐👏

I can't get over how PHENOMENAL Austin Butler is as Elvis Presley. Especially since this is his first lead starring role. He commands the screen. His acting was compelling. He made Elvis more like a normal human being who wasn't perfect and had the same fears as anyone else. He was able to hold his own against Tom Hanks. It's crazy that it took a while for people to notice him as an actor. Yet, this performance proves that there couldn't have been a better person to portray Elvis. This shows that he's a criminally underrated and talented actor. Not to mention, he's so humble, down-to-earth, and charming. It especially doesn't hurt that he's a gorgeous man. I hope to see more of his work. And I hope that he doesn't lose his humble and easy-going nature.

Austin blew tom hanks out of the water. Elvis was hanks worst picture. It was blatantly obvious that hanks didnt study the colonels voice and gave him the most obvious accent when Tom Parker had Elvis and most people convinced he was from America. I don't think he could have pulled that off sounding like a dutch immigrant completely instead of it slipping in specific words 🤣

I initially thought this was going to flop. I thought nobody can be Elvis but Elvis. He has one of the most iconic looks that nobody can ever duplicate. When I first saw Austin as Elvis, I was like "Cmon Man! This is not Elvis!". But when I finally got to see the movie, I swear I forgot what the real Elvis looked like. Austin did become Elvis. He nails him to perfection including his mannerisms and dance moves. We also need to credit a lot the director because without him, I do not think they could pull off this illusion. Its a combination of the lead actors commitment and the excellent story telling techniques of the director that made this possible

There is a book over 300+ pages called The Best of Elvis: Reflections of a Great Humanitarian by Cindy Hazen & Mike Freeman, it tells the story.He Donated the funds to have ST Jude built so every child with Cancer gets free treatment - even today, He bought LBJ's presidential yacht and auctioned to fund ST Jude, He donated the money to complete The Kennedy Art & Music Center in memory of JFK and declined to be the first to play as the founding member because he didn't want to seem political, donated the funds for the USS Arizona in Hawaii to remember all the lives lost on DDay, ended the Polio Epidemic inspiring 86% of America's youth, He funded 500,000 European Refugees food, housing & relocation via Red Cross Donations. He funded an entire trauma wing at Midsouth memorial so 4 states had a Trauma one care, donated 300+ Cadillac alone, 300+ brick homes, thousands of funerals, chemo treatments, millions of individual gifts of Jewelry, clothes, instruments, animals, make a wish were at every concert, hospital visits, spent every night outside his home in Memphis, Beverly Hills & LA signing autographs, in 1950's he even let fans that came from out of town CAMP ON HIS LAWN IN TENTS, He bought his childhood home in Tupelo and built a childs recreation center for poor kids, He signed autographs and gave fans tours at all the movie studios, concerts for Cancer fundraising, hurricane & tornado relief every year from 1956-77, donated to the same 55 MAJOR charities since the year he signed his 1956 contract even now every year 45yrs after his death. He gave away 86% of his ENTIRE lifetime GROSS earnings! Never wrote one donation off on his taxes despite being in the 95% income bracket. Giving was his tithing for Jesus. He said the more he gave, the more God blessed him.

Maybe you should read " Destined to die young". Elvis had MAJOR health problems from birth. There is WAY more to that story. His mom, Grandma Doll & 6 of his 8 uncles all died in their 40's. He took perscriptions to deal with his Genetic health problems, his enlarged paralyzed colon, Glaucoma, Antitrypsin Deficiency, a condition which can result in lung and/or liver disease both of which he had severely at the time of his death. Elvis was never a smoker or drinker. He had Together with the immune system disorder, hypogammaglobulinemia, which plagued Elvis all his life and caused him to constantly fight various infections. His “inherited” weak heart, reactive arthritis, and the impact of his nocturnal lifestyle, resulting in a lack of vitamin D, the effects of which contributed to respiratory infections, reduced immune function, and inflammation. Of the 11 bodily systems that operate to keep us alive and hopefully healthy. Critically, Elvis suffered disease or disorder in nine of them! And five were present from birth and pre his fame. His heart (circulatory system), his lungs (respiratory system), and his bowels (digestive/excretory systems) required medication. Insomnia affected his nervous system……His immune system was compromised. His urinary system was not functioning properly. At one point there was even talk of dialysis. Often he is dismissed as just another rock ‘n’ roll drug addict. He wasn't taking street drugs. He was taking perscriptions not to "ESCAPE" h was taking them to try to maintain some sense of normalcy as himself in a time where the medical field was limited. No DNA, Genetics, No MRI's, little known about the addiction, his dystrophy & No understanding of Vitamin D even. Looking at the illnesses and disorders, that mounted upon each other over the decades, it’s no coincidence that Elvis’ prescription drug use increased as his health declined. From ear infections to chronic tonsilitis to recurrent flus to eye infections and glaucoma…..these arguably insignificant ailments independently, grew into something more. As his body broke down, alongside multiple immune system disorders and genetic complications, prescription medication and his handy PDR tried to fill the gaps. When that no longer worked, hospital stays became the norm and his list of ailments grew. The sicker he got, the more prescriptions he was prescribed. He was seeing a cardiologist before he bought Graceland. He was 20yrs old. They have gone through Elvis's entire life of medical records & now have an entire different story now. This is all the facts Geraldo & 20/20 never stated.

As a die-hard Elvis fan since 1956 at 6 years old, let me say this; There were times he came so close that it was hard to tell Austin from the real Elvis when the clips were intermingled. I especially liked that Austin brought out the rebelliousness in Elvis. That was never explored like that before. I thought he captured it spot on. I was very young when I first laid eyes on Elvis on a black and white television and I don't remember what show it was on or what Elvis was singing. However, I do remember the feeling I got just watching him not really knowing what or who I was looking at. All I knew was that he awakened something inside of me that I still can't explain to this day. Austin singing "Trouble" brought those feelings back after all these years. So, thank you Austin. I appreciate all the hard work and dedication Austin put into this performance channeling Elvis. I think Elvis would approve. Yes, Austin deserves an Oscar. Other stars have received one on far less.

I have been a lifelong Elvis fan since 1956, at the age of 3. When Elvis died, I sent flowers and received a thank you card from the family (one of my cherished possessions). I've seen numerous impersonators, all of his movies repeatedly. I knew I had to see this movie, but to be honest, I wasn't expecting much. To say I was blown away is such an understatement. There were times when I believed I was watching the real Elvis again on the big screen during the movie. Austin's hard work definitely paid off. He is truly amazing in this role. Personally, I'm grateful to him for bringing back Elvis for a little while. Thank you, Austin, doesn't seem quite adequate, but a deep heartfelt thank you to Austin for his performance is all I can offer. I agree, he deserves an Oscar.

Phenomenal portrayal of Elvis! To play someone in a movie is one thing, but to "become" that person in body, mind and emotion is incredible! Austin embodied everything about Elvis that made us love him and why we continue to love him. When people ask me why I love Elvis so much, I'll just tell them to watch this movie...it explains it perfectly. 🥰

Austin did the best job, he's really honoured Elvis' memory :) 10 out of 10 from me!

Harry Styles would have been the worst choice ever to play Elvis (and I'm a HUUUGE Harry Styles fan). Austin IS Elvis. At least the closest to him I've ever seen. I've already seen the movie twice, planning to see it the third time. I's a movie made especially for theatres. You need it to see on the big screen.

He reminds me of Johnny Depp the way they put all their heart and soul in to the character and they literally become them. Not many can do it on their level. The King must be smiling from ear to ear watching him.🤗🕺🏻🔥 Congratulations Austin! 🍾🥂🎉♥️

A great performance and memory to The King of rock n roll. I wish you every success in your acting career. You truly deserve an Oscar. Thank you for bring Elvis back to us on big screen. May The King R.I.P. May you go on bringing us great performances. I give you a standing ovation. I felt i was watching Elvis. God bless you. 👏 👏

For me, a serious Elvis fan for 35 years, Austin transformed into Elvis. Nearly all the moves of his body, expressions by his face, or utterances from his voice, were identical to Elvis.' Those very few that were not quite perfect duplicates had such soulful and heartfelt intention as to appear inspired by Elvis' spirit. Austin seemed to literally reincarnate Elvis, not merely imitate him. I was very impressed. Yes, I think Austin Butler deserves an Academy Award for this performance.
