All you ask from an Elvis movie is a couple a decent songs and a sense of fun, but this flick can't even manage that. The fantastic Ursula Andress is TOTALLY wasted and Elvis is starting to get that "just here for my paycheck" attitude so common in his later movies. Sadly the music is sluggish too - lazy gunk about bold toros and other s'pozedly Mexican themes, with no rockin' hits at all. If you want a first-rate Elvis from this period I recommend "Viva Las Vegas"

Enjoyed it very much, hope you do too. It's Elvis. You really can't go wrong with him.
