Em busca de 'Ohana

Obviously it's not The Goonies, but I feel that Finding Ohana is a like a good sampled hip hop song. They made Finding Ohana using The Goonies sample and inserted their own flavor.

Also, in the age of becoming culturally diverse, its ground breaking to see a whole cast of "minorities." This cast is the closest people my kids can identify with. With all the crap these kids can be watching on YouTube, this movie was literally a breath of fresh Hawaiian air.

Enjoyable family flick that's a little muddled and disjointed at first but picks up and turns very Goonie'st.

The storytelling at the end wraps things up nicely.

This movie is only like "Goonies" to the extent that some kids need to find a treasure to stop an eviction. The main difference between the two films, other than a few decades, is that "Goonies" had personality, and this film doesn't.

My daughter and I watched this movie tonight and absolutely loved it. Being from Hawaii and now living in the mainland it was fun to watch this movie... yes it's very much like goonies but the infusion of the Hawaii culture, language and folk lore made it all the more special. The night marchers story was very similar to what we were taught growing up as was the pidgin and infusion of Hawaiian words. Loved that their home was authentic with glass jalousie windows and tons of wood paneling. The filming of most of the film appears to be in Hawaii and they even have Halona beach from " from here to eternity" in it. The cast looks like the majority of them are from Hawaii which is refreshing considering the majority of the tv shows filmed in Hawaii have lead characters who are not from Hawaii and butcher the Hawaiian Pidgin and culture. The family relationship is realistic and my kids could identify with the siblings. It was.clean and light hearted. I would recommend to anyone, but if your not from Hawaii put the closed captioning on for the Hawaiian words. 💛💛

I enjoyed this movie very much. It's not something to get Oscar nods, but it is a fun adventure movie suitable for family watching. It's a movie you can watch to escape for awhile and end with a smile and feeling a little bit lighter. It's very reminiscent of Goonies, but that's okay. Why not have a modern, treasure hunt, feel-good movie like Goodies? We could all use a feel-good adventure movie these days, especially one the whole family can watch together. I would definitely watch this again.
