You Had Me at Aloha

Love these two together. Fun story. Great scenery.

There's a simple way to tell if you'll like this movie, and that's how much you like Pascale Hutton and Kavan Smith together.

True the plot is inconsequential - it's predictable. It's an excuse to put these two people on the same screen. I didn't see the twist coming, but I should have because the plot is almost the same as another movie that I can't remember the title. (If I describe it, it's too close to spoilers even if it is predictable.)

The point is that Hutton and Smith have worked together for years and the chemistry and ease of their real relationship is obvious.

That's not to say these characters are anything like those on When Calls the Heart because they aren't. In fact the two actors almost switch personalities. (It makes me wonder if someone said to Smith - see how close you can imitate Rosemary and maybe likewise to Hutton as Lee.)

I enjoyed it. There are only so many new plots that fit Saturday night on Hallmark Channel. I do love it when there is something fresh, but barring that, I look for the relationships and this pair came through again.

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!

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.

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

Could not finish watching,, so boring!
