I normally hate Elvis movies being an Elvis fan but this one was wonderful. Elvis wasn't an overweight clown. He dressed the way Elvis would have dressed and acted the way Elvis would have acted if he were still here. I love the Elvis song and whoever sang it sounded authentic. It was a little hokey but you have to suspend reality with a movie like this in the first place. How did makeup make Robert Patrick look so much like Elvis?! Even down to the lips which are nothing like the actors. The script was well written but the actors hammed it up a bit too much. I would prefer that they played their parts straighter and let the script make the jokes, but it still worked. Definitely a movie for Elvis fans. I would also recommend Heartbreak Hotel.

LONELY STREET is a comic murder mystery that features Robert Patrick as a healthy seventy-something Elvis Presley. With excellent prosthetics and some time-well-spent, Patrick is awesomely believable as Elvis, who has faked his death and is contemplating "coming back". Jay Mohr plays the bumbling detective Bubba Mabry, who is hired to snoop on a tabloid reporter by a famous celebrity only known as Mr. Aaron(Patrick). When the reporter is found murdered, who else but Bubba is the perfect suspect. While this goes on, Mr. Aaron is in the studio of Jerry Finkelman(Joe Montegna), who wants the honors of recording the King's comeback hit "When The Rebel Comes Home"(actually sung by Jim Brown, an Elvis tribute artist from Belfast).The production team takes great pains in presenting Elvis' memory with respect and dignity assuming he faked his death only to "clean up" his body and get in shape to age gracefully. Elvis fans will be in awe and should be very pleased. Patrick is superb as the septuagenarian Presley. You will want to watch this movie again just to reassure yourself. The supporting cast features the fetching Nikki Cox, Mike Starr, Paul Rodriguez and Lindsay Price.

I really wanted to see this when I read that there was some Elvis content. At first I thought it was going to be some really lame movie. It exceeded my expectations and I loved it! I didn't actually see a rating but my daughter and I watched it and we laughed pretty good! I will be watching this again. And who is this Lindsay Price? She is sure beautiful and talented! I would love to hear her sing! The King is portrayed by Patrick just perfectly. We never got to know what Elvis would have been like had he lived, but I believe this is as good and believable as it could get. He even looks like a well aged Elvis. A wonderful job! I love this movie, I really do! It was well thought out by people who actually are Elvis fans otherwise they wouldn't have done such a good job. As for Jay Mohr, for some reason, I wasn't thrilled that he was in the movie at first. Why, I don't know. But he was really great, the face he makes under the bed of Hank Hankerson is absolutely hilarious!! When I saw that, I knew I was watching a movie I would like. I am definitely a fan of Mr. Mohr. Loved it and the plot!

The only reason I don't give this a higher rating, is that while it is a really fun and entertaining film, parts are a bit campy (but due to the style of the film, it doesn't distract from the story or the acting). The last time I saw a really good impersonation of Elvis, was Kurt Russell, in Elvis (1979-TV). I heard that he even sang the music in that one. This isn't really about the music, as much as it is a mystery/thriller, with a who-done-it slant thrown in. The actors did a great job. I thought Patrick did a credible impersonation, and I'm even a bit surprised that he looked like "The King". The comedy is light, but it's because the jokes/one-liners are only to make this fun. It's not meant to make you fall out of your chair laughing. I like how the crew was able to keep you guessing, as to who did what. They make it so you have to even ask yourself whether "Mr. Aaron", to protect his anonymity, may be guilty. All in all, as I said previous, one of the most enjoyable films I've seen. I have to also give kudos to the artist who sang the Elvis songs. While a true fan can tell it's not the real Elvis, the singer still did a wonderful job
