Plot: Viva Las Vegas, one of Elvis Presley's most popular vehicles, adheres as rigidly to formula as a Kabuki dance. Elvis plays a race-car driver competing in the Las Vegas Grand Prix opposite his principal rival, Cesare Danova. To finance his entry, Elvis takes a job as a casino waiter. Naturally, he is occasionally prevailed upon to sing, making one wonder why he didn't choose this talent as a means of making some quick cash. As always, Elvis chases all the wrong girls, only to ignore the right one, portrayed by Ann-Margret in her considerable youthful prime (We're supposed to believe that A-M is the daughter of irascible William Demarest. So much for the reliability of gene pools). With a pre-fat Presley, an indescribably gorgeous Ann-Margret, and no fewer than 12 songs on the soundtrack, how could Viva Las Vegas help but reap a fortune at the box office? ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Elvis and Ann Margaret frolic in Las Vegas
Added 10/14/2009



This would be one of Elvis best movies. Lots of Las Vegas, lots of Ann Margaret, lots of Elvis. I think he enjoyed making this movie.

A better story line than most of his so called movies.

Viva this movie!

I finally got around to watching my HD DVD of Viva Las Vegas and wow does it look great. Hard to believe it's 45 years old, kudos to Warner for really cleaning up this old gem!

Admittedly, most Elvis movies were forgetable but not this one, it's a lot of fun. I enjoyed the scenery of old Las Vegas and the songs were quite good. Elvis himself seems to be having a good time and so do the other actors. No doubt he enjoyed this movie more than others of the same era, you can see it in his performance.

But what really makes the film special is Ann-Margret! She is incredibly beautiful and alive. Whether dancing, singing or just being - every scene she's in glows plus she breathes life into Elvis' performance too - there is real chemistry between these stars.

If you're looking for an Elvis movie to watch, this is one of his best. Or if you just want a fun movie give Viva Las Vegas a spin, you'll be glad you did!
