Girls! Girls! Girls!
An enjoyable Elvis Presley romp with colourful locations, a serviceable (though silly) plot and some super ladies, including Stella Stevens who also gets to sing. The sentimentality is a bit glutinous, but there's an underlying toughness to Presley's character that is shown to good effect in some particularly well-acted scenes that also involve young Laurel Goodwin. The hit song is the superb Return to Sender, which was an international number one, and the rest of the score is quite bearable, including We're Coming in Loaded and Thanks to the Rolling Sea. Yes, it's about boats, as if that mattered.
