Elvis Presley's twin brother died at birth. But what if he had lived? That's the question explored in the new musical drama "The Identical" - sort of.

The film is not really about Elvis at all, Plugged In film critic Adam Holz notes.

"It's about twin brothers Ryan and Drexel who are separated at birth-and end up, for the purposes of this story, sounding and looking a whole lot like the King," Holz writes.

"Now add an inspirational message about fatherhood and forgiveness as this wholesome, engaging tale unspools, keeping me wondering right until the end what was going to happen," he adds.
