Elvis looks sleek and cool in Speedway, a decided improvement over the pasty indifference he displayed in his middle-era range of pictures. The movie itself is standard Presley formula, with the King again playing a race-car driver, this time in trouble with an IRS agent (Nancy Sinatra) over his taxes. (There's even a production number about taxes. Argggh.) On the plus side, a bunch of scenes are set in the Hangout, a Pulp Fiction-esque diner with booths shaped like cars and lots of dancers doing the frug. Nancy sings a cool-weird Lee Hazlewood tune, "Your Groovy Self," which should have been picked up by the Austin Powers folks. The plot reflects Elvis's real-life penchant for giving money and cars away, although it's mostly predatory manager Bill Bixby who causes the financial problems. As ho-hum as this outing is, you'll probably want one of Elvis's racing-stripe windbreakers after you see it. --Robert Horton

I LOVE THIS MOVIE! Nancy Sinatra does a great job and this movie is just so great and entertaining. It has a great message! The best thing of all is ELVIS! Anyone who loves Elvis, Nascar, or just a good classica musical move, would love this!

I give Elvis a thumbs up on this one. "Speedway" is entertaining, perhaps not his best film, but definitely worth watching. Elvis was in his prime (physically) for this entry.
But mainly, I dropped in here to let folks know that there's a movie (a pretty awful one) about Tiny Lund, who co-starred in "Speedway," and who was a REAL racecar driver. Tiny, a huge and endearing fellow, won the Daytona 500 in 1963. It's called "Tiny Lund: Hard Charger!" If you're a drooling NASCAR fan you might ... Read More

By 1968, Elvis was wishing his film contact was over. None of his movies could really be said to have high artistic value, although his pre-army movies like Jail-House Rock had some artistic merit, and in them he showed that when he was interested in a project, he had some not bad acting ability.
His post-army films (except King Creole) were more geared toward slick entertainment, exploiting his name and image, and they were very formulaic -- BUT, his early '60's movies were also very entertaining. ... Read More
