I thought it was an outstanding movie. Tom Hanks played Col. Tom Parker and he was really good at it (Im not particularly a Tom Hanks fan). To tell you the truth I did not realize it was Tom Hanks until well into the movie. I don’t think his character was overly represented (my opinion)...Col. Parker was a very important person in the life Aand career of Elvis.

I'm a bit of an Elvis buff but I'm not a big fan of Tom Parker. I think Elvis should have fired him much sooner in his career.

Also, I think the Army took some edge off of Elvis. He was never quite the same after the Army got through with him. In 1957, Elvis was the coolest guy on the planet.
