Aloha (2015)

Best movie ever!

What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Apart from negative review and comments, I would like to give positive review and comment about this movie. Yes, plot need to be re-do, yes, dialog need to be reworked, but the thing is, overall this movie is entertaining.Good movie, is the movie that gives you a pleasure, a "feels-good" feeling at the end of the movie. Whether is rom-com, horror, thriller, drama or whatever, and aloha give me that, especially at the end of the movie when Carson Welch get arrested after a long conversation between Gilcrest and General Dixon and Fingers, and also give me a big smile while Brian Gilcrest kissed Allison Ng and that the hat is still there. I can't believe Ng still keep the hat.

Great cast, but unfortunate movie to be hired for. plot was difficult to follow and character development weak. at times comical when it wasn't supposed to be. oh well...at least I watched it while in Hawaii which made it slightly more interesting...better luck next time for these actors!

For the life of me, I do not know where all over the top hatred, and negative press revenues, for this movie, are coming from.Did you all watch the same movie I did? I watched this movie, knowing from the beginning, that it had an all star cast, and I admit, some of my favorite actors, and in my opinion, they all gave great performances! Kudos to the casting director! The little girl, Danielle Rose Russell (Grace), had one of the most emotional, heart wrenching, non speaking scenes, in the entire movie! She and Bradley Cooper killed it! I cried, and still do cry, every time that scene comes on. Very emotional, and highly believable.When I watch a movie, it isn't so much the witty dialogue, or over the top action sequences, that draw me in, it is the expressions, and non verbal communication, between the movies characters/actors! I have to be able to relate in some way, to the circumstance or situation. The story has to be believable! This movie was loaded, with tons of non verbal communication, and I loved it! Cameron Crowe hit it out of the ball park with this one! I love Cameron Crowe's movies! He has away of writing and directing, that suits my sensibilities, and exposes the raw human condition! Add a story line, that is highly believable, filmed in a beautiful location, along with the mesmerizing chemistry, between Bradley Cooper, (Brian Gilcrest), Rachel McAdams(Tracy Woodside), Emma Stone(Alision Ng), Bill Murray(Carson Welch), and John Krasinski(John "Woody" Woodside) and every one of the remaining co-stars, it all added up for me, to be an wholesomely entertaining, emotionally charged, heartfelt drama, with a dash of quirky humor, thrown in for good measure! Also, I love the fact, there was zero gratuitous nudity, sexual exploitation, or foul language! Mega points and respect from me, for not going after the low hanging fruit! Believe it or not, not one f bomb was uttered, during the entire movie! That has to be some kind of record, and worthy of some recognition! All in all, Aloha, was in my estimation, a great movie, and proof that "paid for" movie critics, don't always have it right!

This movie is a waste of time and money, honestly. The story was so poorly written, you will have no idea what is going on the entire time you're watching the movie. Things happening at random points of the film and made no sense at all. No back story and random people just appears in the movie without any leading up story. The entire movie just seemed "empty". No story telling, no moral value to take from it whatsoever. The disastrous acting skill from the actors/actresses only made it worse. It didn't seem like they enjoy shooting the film, and only did it for the money. They were definitely not into their characters when the filming was taking place.
