Aloha Summer (1988) Reviews

Member Rating:

Aloha Summer is set in 1959 Hawaii. The six teenaged protagonists are drawn from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, resulting in the expected prejudices, hostilities and misunderstandings. The story's focus is on Chris Makepeace, an Italian-American lad who learns by means both soft and hard how to get along with, and understand, those different from himself. A few Kung-Fu scenes are thrown in whenever the action threatens to flag. While bereft of surprises, Aloha Summer is a magnificently photographed delight for surf-movie aficionados. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Starring:: Chris Makepeace, Yuji Okumoto, (more)

Director(s):: Tommy Lee Wallace

Aloha Summer is a wonderfully sweet romantic film set in Hawaii. The film was directed by Tommy Lee Wallace, produced by Warren Chaney and written by Mike Greco. It's production values are incredible; the acting is great and the cinematography by academy award winner Steve Poster cannot be surpassed for sheer beauty. This is family fare at its very best! I highly recommend!!!
