Review of Elvis Lives!

Elvis Lives! (2016 TV Movie)
1/10
Voice Never Failed
4 March 2020
The IMDB description that Elvis' was faced with his voice failing is wrong. His voice never failed him. He may have forgot the lyrics during some of his concerts, but his voice was always great. I give this movie 2 stars just because it's about Elvis. I'm not sure if this is supposed to be fiction of not. I never heard about the paranoid Elvis that wanted to off one of his confidants. I understand why Elvis took pharmaceuticals since the world pretty much made him a god, and how would anyone handle that situation? Imagine the mind boggling pressure it would have been being Elvis. The drugs were his way to cope. I just don't know what someone around him could have talked to him and set him straight with the drugs. Elvis didn't regard his pharmaceuticals as same as drug abuse because his medication was prescribed by his doctor, so to him, he was legitimately using them. In that era, everyone was using those drugs. Probably no one will ever know what it was like to be at that level of fame and adoration.
