YOUR RATING

Hawaii's premier musicians and entertainers star in an outrageous comedy with heart, produced entirely on the island of Maui. The cast features Willie K, Eric Gilliom, Carolyn Omine, Augie T, and Jake Shimabukuro in starring roles, and is rounded out by other luminaries such as Henry Kapono, Amy Hanaiali'i, Mick Fleetwood, Willie Nelson, and Pat Simmons of the Doobie Brothers. The Maui News says of the film: "It's a madcap comedy, a throwback to the zaniness of Hope and Crosby, Martin and Lewis, Abbott and Costello."

Belly laugh

I loved this movie! It was a laugh out loud adventure. The characters reminded me of the 3 Stooges. If you want to have fun and laugh your butt off, get this movie! It's a classic comedy where you fall in love with the characters, and want more. The movie is filmed on beautiful Oahu in Hawaii, but it could be any where in the world because we all know a friend or relative with similar issues with employment. I loved the local music especially Jake Shimabukuri who is one of my favorite ukulele musicians. The morning after I watched the film I found myself laughing out loud about some of the funniest scenes, it put a real smile on my face. I would recommend this film to anyone that has had a hard day at work and wants to rid themselves of a stressful day, it will transport you to the island and to a wacky world.
