4.0 out of 5 stars Good Elvis movie

As far as Elvis movies go, this is one of the better ones. Of course it can't compare with King Creole, his best one, but considering that he was stuck doing dopey movies for years, to the point that it literally made him sick, this one was pretty good. It also has the fabulous Barbara Stanwyck, and it actually has a plot, so that's a plus as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not My Fav! But After 3 Times, Love it!

I learned to love this one after a couple of times watching. Not because of Elvis, but because of the character that plays opposite Barbara Stanwick. Not a very likeable character, and I am not good with watching hurtful characters. But Elvis, I LOVE. He is feisty, a bit of a hellion. But, you will love his character and his music is always dreamy! Love Elvis all over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Barbara Stanwyck in an Elvis Movie?
Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2013

Yes, and playing the owner of a carnival. She is dynamite, the actress who played the matriarch of the Barkley Ranch in The Big Valley. Elvis decides to sign on as a roustabout while his damaged motorcycle is getting fixed, but then stays on to see if he can save this place from its competition. His rival is a barker played by Pat Buttram who is perfect for the part. There is of course a girl Elvis is interested in, much to this dismay of her father, and plenty of songs including Little Egypt. I have fun with this movie and glad to have it on a DVD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Elvis does Karate, the Wall of Death and Colourful Carnie Cuddling.

Released the same year as Viva Las Vegas, Roustabout is often viewed as one of the lesser lights in Elvis' 1960s movie output. Which is a shame given that it has vitality in abundance, sees the King playing a two dimensional character, features the professional workings of Barbara Stanwyck and Leif Erickson and is beautifully staged and photographed (Lucien Ballard) amongst a Carnival backdrop.

Plot sees Presley as night club singer Charlie Rogers who has a big chip on his shoulder, getting into yet another fight he gets fired and via a motorcycle run in with Maggie Morgan (Stanwyck) and Joe Lean (Erickson), ends up working at Maggie's carnival operation while he waits for his bike to be fixed. He has his eyes on Joe's daughter, Cathy (Joan Freeman), but Joe, himself carrying a heavy burden, has a big dislike for the young upstart. With the bank closing in ready to close the struggling carnival, hope may come in the form of Charlie's singing attributes, but will he stay? Will he be lured away by a lucrative offer from a rival Carnie promoter? With Charlie struggling to ingratiate himself to the Carnie way of life, and him constantly failing to show his true emotions to win around a hard to convince Cathy, the odds against him staying seems short.

Well how do you think it's going to end? Exactly the way you expect it too of course. But there is great fun and frolics along the way and it is a true spirit raising finale. The clutch of songs are not the best, though the beautiful tenderness of "Big Love, Big Heartache" and the interesting take on "Little Egypt" are reason enough to be pleased with the musical contributions. Presley delivers a good turn, a nifty blend of rebel yell and housewives baby, the carnival atmosphere is well born out and crucially the film manages to not undersell the graft that carnival workers did to put on a show for the public's entertainment. It also opens up a game for spotters of future "names", see if you can spot Raquel Welch, Teri Garr and Richard Kiel in teeny tiny roles.

A lovely enjoyable Elvis film, foot tapping and smiles guaranteed, and the King, quite frankly, rocks in this one. 7/10
