Elvis Presley - Love Me Tender (DVD)

Advantages: Elvis singing, great music and honest story
Disadvantages: Elvis's acting is slightly wooden

..., this is a sheer pleasure. We get to watch a young Elvis strut his stuff and woo us with his wonderful songs. The actual story loosely relates to Elvis's own rise as undoubtedly the most famous singer in history. It is also a joy to watch a good old-fashioned film, which doesn't rely on action, violence, special effects, swearing or any other modern traits of filmmakers to keep you entertained. The film also reflects on the initial disapproval of the older generation when Rock n Roll started to make it big. Although there is a love story theme, it really is not the driving force of the plot and we are left to enjoy the musical ride. The main character in the film is Deke Rivers played by Elvis Presley (Love Me Tender), a delivery driver boy who is manipulated into becoming a famous Rock n Roll Star. This was only Elvis's second movie... Read review

...I love Elvis Presley soooooo much. i'm even named after his daughter. His legend and his music still live on today amd remain with us till the end of mankind.In my opinion i would suggest this cd to anybody because it is a really good cd. He is definately number 1 after all this time and will remain in my heart as number for the rest of my life. I was brought up listening to Elvis Presley and i've always been a big fan. All of his cd's are very good and i buy just about every Elvis Preley cd i see and i like to watch all of his films which are all very good. His films are different to the songs and some of his songs are included in the films. I love Elvis Presley!!!... Read review

Advantages: Very sharp blades
Disadvantages: Very sharp blades

...I found this item a couple of days after one of the most disappointing dinners I have made. I had bought what appeared to be a lovely piece of braising steak, cooked it - as I have on numerous occasions - only to find that I could probably have used it very successfully to mend shoes! The Deni Meat Tenderizer is a small utensil, approximately 15cm x 11cm x 3.5cm (6" x 4.3" x 1.4") - as it is an irregular shape it is impossible to give exact measurements. It is made of white plastic and stainless steel and for a small item is quite heavy. It has 48 very sharp stainless steel blades which are protected by a frame and there is a plastic case which covers this. To use, you remove the cover (of course) and gently press the tenderizer over the piece of meat or fish. When you press it down, the blades emerge from the housing... Read review
