Change of Habit (DVD, 2002)

Love Elvis, but to be honest a lot of his movies are just plain lame. They didn't have to be good because Elvis fans were going to see them no matter the name or content as long as there was Elvis doing what we loved, singing.
This movie is one of the exceptions. I loved this movie and it never shows up on TV movies or even in stores. Mary Tyler Moore is a perfect match for him in this film. It's Elvis at his best, a must have for all Elvis fans.

I bought this film because it's pretty cool to see Elvis and Mary Tyler Moore working together, and the few songs that are in this film are not as cheesy as most E.P. movies. The big 'hit song' from this one is 'Rubber Neckin', which has a cool remixed version out now, by the way. Most of Elvis' later films are crappy, but this one is worth checking out. He's an inner-city Dr. taking care of the poor, and Mary is the leader of a trio of 'undercover nuns' who go to the clinic to help out Dr. Presley, except they are in 'modern civilian clothes and hair', so nobody knows that they're nuns except the parish priest, played by the curmudgeonly character actor Regis Toomey, who had been in a lot of movies in the 1930's and 1940's. This film was part of Mary's 4 film post-Dick Van Dyke Show contract with Universal Studios. The only other film of the four that is worth watching is the now-classic 'Thoroughly Modern Millie', from 1967 with Julie Andrews and Carol Channing as her co-stars.

An interesting side note: Look for Mary's future 'Mary Tyler Moore Show' co-star Ed Asner as the neighborhood cop. They don't really have any scenes together in 'Change of Habit', but it's still cool to see him in this movie.


If you like Elvis, If You like Mary, you might just like this film.
Cool, Baby!

Thank You, Thank you very much...

this is an excellant movie for elvis enthusiast. he was a king in all respects. thank you for the opportunity to write a review on this item. this is a hard to find movie and ebay happened to have it and seller was fast. thanks again

I placed the order and paid immediately....did not hear a word for over two weeks after sending 3-4 emails...then rec'd a refund with no explanation.

This is a great movie.Elvis Presley is a terrific actor and musician.I'm collecting all his movies for myself as a keepsake.

I really liked this movie. It was a great change of pace for the bubbly Mary Tyler Moore. Great entertainment while bringing important issues of the day (and today) to view. Elvis was charissmic as usual. I would recommend.

My brother is more of an Elvis fan than I am, but this movie wasn't like his others. I've not seen this one in a good while and Mary Tyler Moore was just beginning her career back then. The acting was good and the story as very different for him. I bought it to round out my collection and I got a good deal when I went looking for it.

I've been a life long ELVIS fan and have never seen this movie. Although it was very different from his other movies, I enjoyed it.

The movie was great. I bought it for my sister because she loves elvis presley. I would recommend any of his movies if you can find them.

It got here fast and I like how it works. I like the movie and anything Elivs. I will buy again from this buyer.

this is a great movie it stars elvis presley and mary tyler moore it has music and adventure elvis tars as a dr. who falls in love with his nurse the later finds out shes a nun a must for elvis movie watchers

my wife loves Elvis and all Elvis movies. Great Buy. My grandson loves it too and he's only 4 1/2 years old.

As you know, Change of Habit was Elvis' final movie in 1970. His co-star Mary Tyler Moore was also a gem in this one. There are only 3 songs in it, but, the movie delivers powerful messages throughout. I would recommend this movie to anyone.

I bought this movie because i love elvis movies, also because of the price of the movie. e--bay has alot of differant things to buy and their at reasonable prices. You recive the item you buy within a reasonable time after you pay for them. their are no dislikes that i have for this at all.

I had purchased this movie because I am a Elvis fan and I love all his music and movies.There wasnt anything about it I did not like, I loved the movie and was happy about the careful shipping and there was nothing wrong with it at all.
thank you for this and I look forward to purchasing more movies in the future.

ELVIS was ALL he ever was in this film and in everything he ever did in life - the most handsome man I ever laid eyes on, the most charimatic man ever known, the most sexy man alive - ever, and the most GIFTED AND TALENTED MAN to ever come to this earth. AN EXCELLENT FILM - ALL BECAUSE OF OUR MAN, ELVIS! Thanks for asking. YOU "WILL" ENJOY THIS FILM! GUARANTEED! Jeannie

i never owned it and wanted the last movie he ever made. Wanted to share with my granddaughter who loves Shirley Temple movies and Elvis. Thanks

Change of Habit is one of Elvis presley movies that's really good. I had it on VHS but had to get it on DVD for my collection. I would recommend this movie for anyone that likes Elvis Presley.

I love my new dvd of Elvis Presley, it was all that I hoped for. I am a Elvis fan & this dvd is helping me to put my collection together. I am sure that in the near future I will be looking for more of Elvis's dvd's to add to my collection. Thank You ejo120966

It was easier to find than I thought it would be. It was reasonably priced. I wish I had waited and looked a little longer but I was glad to have found it. I'd like to have had it in full sceen instead of wide but the individual I purchased it for was happy to have it. She is a big elvis fan.

I purchased this DVD for my mother-in-law for Christmas. She has been looking for this movie on DVD for years & was never able to find one, at least one that was in good condition. She was so excited when she opened that box!! At first, she just thought it was another movie, but when she seen it was HER movie, she looked like she was a teenage girl again! I just want to thank all the merchants on Ebay that help people find those hard to find items for hard to buy for people! Thank you so much for helping me bring some joy to my mom-in-law!!!

ELVIS! Enough said! But I'll say further, this may not have been his best movie, but I enjoyed it very much

I'm an Elvis fan so I love his movies. But, I also like that they were all family friendly.This was also the last movie.It has a wonderful story line,as well as Mary Tyler Moore and Ed Asner at there best,before "The Mary Tyler Moore show" . Well worth watching. Cariel

this elvis and mary tyler moore working to make the community a better place for all . all in all it is a good movie. you get music and laughter and of coarse elvis
