You Had Me at Aloha

Awful, not worth my reviewing.... Poor match of a couple...

Could not finish watching,, so boring!

Watching romantic comedy is for me an escape, a way to forget the ugliness of our world today. Contrary to popular belief, this is one of the most difficult genres of movies to make. Unfortunately, lately, few movies succeed in meeting the challenge of creating the magic of feeling in love and making people laugh. The majority of Hallmark movies increasingly look like superficial products where the main thing is to please the majority of viewers; even the cast of the main actors is terrible: they often have no chemistry. However, I was pleasantly surprised first by the secondary actors who are usually simple extras who add nothing to the story. Then the main actors are really good together, the story is told well and some moments are funny and some are really romantic. I really enjoyed the movie.

Could be it better ? Obvious. Because the all recipe is reduced at actors and Hawaii. And, no doubts, Pascal Hutton,Kavan Smith,Jennifer Aspen and Valen Ahlo are just inspired options. But it is far to be enough.

The story is a continuous line. You know the end but it is so forced than you are more than disappointed . Because the potential offered by Hawaii is pure wasted. And the nice exposure of the vulnerability of characters becomes fake.

So, could be better with little some effort.

There is a Hallmark series that I watch and the two leads here are in that program. I guess it wasn't a surprise that the chemistry and ease of acting together was superb. So often I will watch a Hallmark movie that has at least one character that seems to have just been dropped right into the cast without a lot of acting experience. It becomes very distracting. I guess the main thing I enjoyed about this movie was that I could just watch it from beginning to end and believe it! Throughout, there were a lot of comic elements in the script, and that's what made it a very enjoyable romcom as well. I highly recommend it for a low stress, fun watch!

Love these two together. Fun story. Great scenery.
