"Elvis is played by a frankly astonishing Austin Butler, who delivers a show-stopper of a performance. When Butler shakes his hips in Presley’s first gig as a full-blown rock ‘n’ roller, it’s like watching two stars being born. Women in the audience scream, almost involuntarily. Butler sells every moment, nails the accent and smartly charts the singer’s evolving physicality over two decades on stage."
