AgentElvis Review: Vibrant, Action-Driven Animated Series Lacks Originality
It should have been obvious that Baz Luhrmann's Elvis, an acid trip of a biopic, would open up the floodgates to bring on an Elvissaince. Continuing the trend of reviving Elvis Presley and bringing the late singer into the current pop culture zeitgeist is Agent Elvis, a raunchy adult animated series that imagines Elvis as a foul-mouthed American spy.
The other is Archer, the show to which Agent Elvis has a peculiar likeness. There is no shortage of animated series and films with strikingly similar animation styles. However, Agent Elvis is a series that demands individuality. It should be noted that Mike Arnold, the series creator and showrunner, worked on Archer. Agent Elvis is incredibly colorful and energetic, but the comparisons to Archer are undeniable and work against the series.
Visually, the show is a blast. Sony Animations has always been home to inventive and creative animation, and watching as it continues to expand is terrific. Agent Elvis has fun with the concept at hand. The use of color and framing particularly stands out. The recreation of notable Elvis imagery and moments is also fun for fans seeking out these nostalgic trips. The writing and jokes may fall flat, but what draws one in is the high-octane, highly-stylized action-oriented animation.
