"This 4 pack of Elvis treats was an Elvis fan delight.It starts with Kissing Cousins with double the Elvis. Elvis is surrounded by a passel of beauties. He gets to sing to his hearts delight and still gets into a fight with himself. With the movie "Live a little,Love a little" you have one of the most adult Elvis movies. It streches the boundries of reality with vivid weird dreams and boundless sexual humour. It's nice to see Dick Sargent and Rudy Vallee in this movie, but Don Porter seems miscast. Elvis's dad makes a quick non-speaking cameo. Blink and you may miss him. Overall a good Elvis movie. (his dog is neat too).In "Girl Happy" we have the classic Elvis as a singer. He then falls for Shelly Fabares. Shelly is wonderful in this role! We also have the sultry Mary Ann Mobley who steals the spotlight with her gorgous acting. This is a fun filled singing Elvis farce that will delight almost all Elvis fans. Int h final film, "Tickle Me" we have fun filled Elvis romp in the desert fat farm. Elvis gets to sing and help young female clients lose weight.Of course he drawn to one of the co-workers. The very co-worker who doesn't want anything to do with him. He wins her over with music and charm. Watch for Elvis magic guitar that seems to start to play drums and trumpets and all sorts of music, even when Elvis puts it down to sing even better. Other than that, this is a fun filled boy meets girl Elvis fim. Four fun filled "Elvis" movies packed together to make any Elvis fan happy."

"Where else can one get 4 Elvis flicks for a bargain? Here we have 4 great movies for the price of one. If you're just starting your Elvis movie collection or re-building in DVD, start here. "Live Alittle, Love A Little" is my favorite."
Four weak films from Elvis

"Hey, I'm an Elvis fan, so I'm not here to trample everything he did without regard to quality. But these four films are NOT anywhere NEAR the best of his movies, and generally are quite embarrassing. Look them up in a good movie guide and see what I mean. Three of the four are from the mid-60s, which was the low point of his film career since he was still doing the lame "beach movie" types of films, but they had declined in quality with poor scripts, weak songs, and usually low production values. The one here from the late-60s, "Live a Little, Love a Little," had some decent scenes and songs (such as "Almost in Love," "A Little Less Conversation," and "The Edge of Reality"), and for his films was unusually frank in dealing with sexual matters. Yet again, the film was undermined by a poor script. So unless you're either an Elvis completest or you already know you like these films, stick to his best: King Creole, Wild in the Country, Follow That Dream, Jailhouse Rock (Deluxe Edition), Loving You, Flaming Star, and maybe Viva Las Vegas (Deluxe Edition). (By the way, I KNOW that negative reviews are unpopular on Amazon, so a bunch of morons will probably vote me a "No" on this!)"
