Amazon.com Hawaii seems like an afterthought in Elvis's second island outing. Half the musical numbers take place on boats (including the seasick-making title tune) and half in a Trader Vic's-style nightclub, so there's little good use of the exotic locale. There's little use of that lovable dish Stella Stevens, either, who's relegated to "other woman" duty as Elvis courts bland Laurel Goodwin. Goodwin's a rich girl going incognito, while E.P. is a penniless fisherman who dreams of owning his own boat. You finish the plot. The King is in good voice here, although the songs are fairly weak, with some curious flings at calypso and flamenco mixed in. He comes to shoulder-shaking life for "Return to Sender," a sizzling number that shows how his entire being could be possessed by a musical moment. This movie doesn't have enough of those to boost it into the upper tier of Elvis pictures. --Robert Horton

GIRLS! GIRLS! GIRLS! isn't one of Elvis Presley's most distinguished screen outings; but it provides a pleasant diversion nevertheless.
Set amongst the islands of Hawaii, Presley plays tuna-fisherman/tour-guide Ross Carpenter, trying to make ends meet so he can buy his dream boat and go into business for himself. Adding complications is Carpenter's love triangle with two very different dames: jaded nightclub singer Robin (Stella Stevens), and young heiress Laurel (Laurel Goodwin), who's looking to experience life on the other side of the social divide.
Presley gets to sing no less than fourteen(!) musical numbers. Laurel Goodwin (a snub-nosed Debbie Reynolds clone) is quite pretty but fails to make any lasting impression. Producers really dropped a clanger in letting vivacious Stella Stevens go to waste in a thankless supporting role; she deserved better material here. Stevens' singing was dubbed by Gilda Maiken.
With it's exotic location filming and the charm of Presley, GIRLS! GIRLS! GIRLS! will be a welcome title for fans, yet others will wonder what the fuss is all about. The DVD offers no extra features. (Single-sided, dual-layer disc).
ELVIS PROMOTES MULTI-CUTURALISM October 2, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I like the way Elvis presents Mamma and Poppa Stavros and his Chinese friends as part of the American mosaic. But honestly, for some reason, I always thought this film was in Florida, not Hawaii as everyone else says. Maybe it was because I thought Mamma and Papa were Greek, like the Greeks in 'Beneath the Twelve Mile Reef' which was in Tarpon Springs,but the song 'We'll Be Together' that he sings at their party has a Spanish verse. I also like 'Earth Boy' which he sings with the Chinese children. As for the romantic ballads, I especially liked 'Where Do You Come From' but although it's part of the album, it isn't in the film.
Girls Girls Girls March 28, 2007 Another typical Elvis Presley movie. It won't win an Academy award but it's always entertaining & I love his singing. Filmed in Hawaii & I love the beautiful scenery. Just a big Elvis fan.
