	Jailhouse Rock (1957) Starring: Elvis Presley, Judy Tyler, Mickey Shaughnessy - Three Movie Buffs Review

		Watch Jailhouse Rock and discover that teen idols have really not changed much and that if Elvis was alive and 22 years old today he would be outselling them all.

	Comedy Central: Movies - Jailhouse Rock - Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		If Jailhouse Rock isn't Elvis Presley's best movie, it's close enough to the top of the heap to be essential viewing for anyone interested in The King's legacy, and it's one of his few vehicles which really caught his raw, sexy energy and sneering charisma on film.
		Playing an ex-con rock & roll singer, Elvis' role isn't much of a stretch here, but it also allows him to let his natural charm shine through, and the film's cynical portrait of the inner working of the music business certainly seems to agree with him.
		Jailhouse Rock plays like a good, tough B-movie with some rockin' musical numbers thrown in, and it certainly serves Elvis and his talent far better than the glossier but empty-headed movies that dominated his post-Army career.

		As for the Love Me Tender soundtrack, the songs are a lot different from the ones Elvis usually recorded, since the movie took place during the Reconstruction period.
		The attitude from Jailhouse Rock the movie (Elvis pretty much sneered his way through the film, and it's great) is carried over to the soundtrack.

		Elvis Presley's 1957 movie Jailhouse Rock remains the most successful fusion of cinema and pop music ever created.
		Featuring some of the King's biggest hits (although, hilariously, Elvis' estate have refused permission to use the song 'Jailhouse Rock') this has some of the best music on the London stage and a fantastic show to go with it.
		Formerly the Atlantic, this is perhaps the grandest dining room in the West End, all marble pillars and gilt, with a plush cocktail bar and dancing on the ballroom floor after dinner.

		Trivia: Originally the choreographer, Alex Romero, created a dance for the song "Jailhouse Rock" that was in a style that was apropos for a more classically trained dancer than Elvis.
		Romero realized that his plans for the number were never going to work, he asked Elvis how would he normally move to the song; thus, this is how Elvis became the uncredited choreographer for what could be considered his most famous dance number in all of his movies.
		All the songs are good and the "Jailhouse Rock" number is just stunning--easily one of the best choreographed musical numbers ever caught on screen.

	Jailhouse Rock - The Musical, a CurtainUp London review
		Jailhouse Rock - The Musical is that theatrical phenomenon, despised by most, if not all of the critics, but adored by the audience.
		I often fall midway between the two positions, enough of a nostalgic ageing rock chick to love the music but knowing that this is essentially a crowd-pleaser rather than a ground breaking musical.
		The movie Jailhouse Rock was Elvis Presley's third after Love Me Tender and Loving You.

	Movie Info for Jailhouse Rock on MSN Movies
		One of the best of Elvis Presley's pre-Army films, Jailhouse Rock offers us the sensual, "dangerous" Elvis that had won the hearts of the kids and earned the animosity of their elders.
		Usually the musical numbers in a Presley picture (this one has a doozy, complete with chorus boys dressed as convicts!) are more compelling than the plot.
		Jailhouse Rock is a perfect balance of song and story from beginning to end; seldom would Elvis be so well showcased in the future.

	Pussycats Not Up To Scratch: Josie and the Pussycats Movie Review (NY Rock)
		The history of rock-and-roll movies dates back almost as far as the genre of music itself.
		From Elvis busting out of the slammer in 1957's Jailhouse Rock, to the tragic imagery of the Rolling Stones' 1970 documentary Gimmie Shelter, to the satirical "mockumentary" of 1984's This Is Spinal Tap, rock music and Hollywood have gone together like backseats, hot nights, and getting laid.
		Despite discouraging circumstances, Josie (played by rocking Rachael Leigh Cook of She's All That fame) and the Pussycats manage to make the big time, all while resisting temptations that threaten their "friends first" motto.
