Rating: 4 [ Elvis doing double duty! ]
"Kissin Cousins" is another film that is considered, by popular opinion to be a cheeseball. You have to try this film first and see what you think. If you like it and recommend it write a review here. I'd like to add that Elvis movie fans better listen up! If you like any of his films, POST A REVIEW FOR PETE'S SAKE! I see only 5+ reviews for his movies. Disappointing! In fact I see it on all products that's Elvis except the 30 #1 Hits CD which has 205+. MUCH BETTER! Finally we wised up on that one. Getting back to "Kissin' Cousins", Elvis does double duty and plays an air force pilot named Josh Morgan (my name, except for the Morgan part) and his hilbilly blonde look-alike Jodie Tatum. I'm still wondering how this film was done with two Elvis on the screen at once in some scenes. I agree with the person who said that Yvonne Craig should have been in more of Elvis' pictures. She's a hot potato. Again, give this one a try and rely on what your thoughts tell you. Elvis is still the King no matter what type of picture he's in. This one is pretty good, overall.

Rating: 3 [ Elvis meets Lil' Abner ]
The Elvis movie formula takes time off from the usual frolic on sandy beaches, and shifts to Hillbilly Heaven. For those who just can't get enough Elvis, he plays a dual role in this movie. The comedy is lighthearted, and maybe even a little light-headed. The music is the '60s pop rock fluff typical of Elvis' flicks. Some of the movie extras look as if they are practicing for an appearance on TV's "Hee Haw." The fussin', feudin', and fightin' is all in good fun. The sparkin' that passes for romance up in the hills is "G" rated, of course. The military wants to put an intercontinental ballistic missile on Walton's mountain, er, the Tatum family property. Air Force officer Josh Morgan (Elvis) is ordered to help acquire the missile site because he is a distant cousin of the Tatums. Josh's lookalike cousin Jody (Elvis in a blonde wig) resents the intrusion. It seems all government men are suspect because they might be "revenuers." When Josh uses the phrase "ICBM" to Pappy Tatum (Arthur O'Connell), Pappy replies, "You do? Where?" Shades of Abbott and Costello. This is far from the greatest movie ever made, but it's okay light entertainment. Aging baby boomers can relish the nostalgia. Knock yourself out. Enjoy the nonsense.

Rating: 4 [ Am I seeing double? ]
How much mun fun do you want, got Elvis Presley staring in a movie, you see him in love, and sining too. But how about another Elvis Presley. Believe it or not, Elvis Presley is playing to characters in this movie. I am giving this movie 4 stars because, there was one minor problem I had with this movie. There is a scene in movie when Josh Morgan (Elvis Presley) is willing to help Ma Tatum when Pa Tatum is missing, and he does that after sh treats him. Earlier in this movie, when Soble promises the girls gifts on from the army, and they become to lazy to do they chores, Ma Tatum orders Josh and all the rest of the army of the mountain. If she treated me like that, and she needed help I would not help her and I would her "because of the way you treated me and my army, you can do it yourself" relative or not. I have also remembered that there is one song in this movie that is not sung by Elvis and that is "Pappy won't you please come home".
