Alongside that, Luhrmann makes an awful lot of use of sound effects and there’s a beautiful dynamic range to them, again utilising the same balanced tonal mix of the music. Add in the perfectly captured dialogue that’s always clear (when it should be – some of Elvis’s songs have dropped words and slightly muffled lines, but that’s in keeping with the performance aspect of the design) and all three elements are in perfect harmony, delivering a wonderfully complex and layered mix that is an effortless and delightful listen.

It's clear he was a one-of-a-kind prototype musician who was there to change music forever. Unfortunately, like a lot of talented artists, they are easily manipulated by others which resulted in Tom Parker coming aboard and orchestrating a decades-long con on Elvis that prevented him from doing what he wanted. This ultimately led to his turmoil in marriage, his addiction to drugs, and lastly his untimely, sad death. There are great moments of rebellion, his love for his child and mother, and wanting to make the best music and live performance there ever was, which Luhrmann also spotlights as well.

That all being said, I won’t tell you the whole story here in my review of Elvis Presley’s life, in fact, the film doesn’t entirely do so 100% accurately, but I will say that this film manages to do one fantastic job of telling the story [as best as possible] and is an absolute must-see film for any fan of Elvis or those curious about the man, his life, and the music he performed.

Elvis’s parents, Vernon Presley ( Richard Roxburgh) and Gladys Presley ( Helen Thomson), want their son to be happy and are very supportive of his pursuit to be a musical performer as we see here in the film.

Surround usage is nicely drawn, coming alive for the performances, with the ambience of the crowd and the various stages spread around and above the listener. There are various spot effects that make full use of the speaker array thanks to Luhrmann’s high energy montages and use of visual effects, but my only criticism of the sound mix here is that there is such a difference between the musical performances and the rest of the film with regard to its use of the entire speaker array that I always wanted just a little more ambience and atmosphere from the speakers during the many off-stage moments….All along the way, you’ll feel a very deep amount of bass in the speakers as well as strong LFE coming from the subwoofer.
