Critics Consensus

Meandering and insubstantial, Aloha finds writer-director Cameron Crowe at his most sentimental and least compelling.

Max Weiss Baltimore Magazine Half the time while watching Aloha, I had no clue what was going on. Not so much the plot -- although I was admittedly a bit muddled on that, too -- but why anyone acted the way they did. Rated: 1.5/4 Jun 10, 2016 Full Review Jason Bailey Flavorwire It seems less that Crowe's gifts have escaped him than that they've become disproportionate with his excesses, and we're less forgiving of those trespasses. May 28, 2016 Full Review Lenika Cruz The Atlantic The whole story is a tangled mess. Aloha sees itself as a quirky, funny, and sad, but loudly announces when it's trying to be those things. Jan 21, 2016 Full Review Vadim Rizov Filmmaker Magazine Aloha attempts to resolve two complex potential romances while simultaneously sounding the alarm against the military-industrial complex (!) and contemplating the ongoing marginalization of native Hawaiians. Jan 23, 2023 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Many of the actors remain so charming that watching them, even in a film as slapdash as this, makes the entire experience better than it really is. But that doesn’t mean Aloha should be considered passable. Rated: 1.5/4 Jun 21, 2022 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse A sweet natured misfire, a movie that, to once again paraphrase Crowe, does not show us the money. Rated: 2/5 Feb 3, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Andrew M I could not understand the plot, minus the messy Love Square that was happening. I don't get the whole military mission side of the whole plot at all. I keep asking my wife if she understands what's going on and she kept saying no until she just fell asleep watching it. Congratulations, Cameron Crowe, you made me hate all the actors in this movie that I like, especially John Krasinski and Rachel McAdams. It never got better and then it just ended. What a convoluted mess. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/27/25 Full Review Michaela R Alright, so it was "meandering" and a bit wacky. I liked it much more than I thought I would. I resonated with the spiritual air of the film. I enjoyed how it portrayed that mystical undertone in all of the scenes. I thought the family dynamics and tension were handled with care; finally there's a moral ending that didn't involve infidelity. The acting was wonderful though Stone came off a little strong. I imagine some of the film's messages may be closer to home now than when the movie came out. Possibly my favorite aspect, though, was the mannerisms of every character. You could feel the atmosphere change with each person and all of them had a spark of something deep. It feels like their world is one without "supporting roles" and "extras." Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/25 Full Review Bill B This vapid low grade trash insults your intelligence. I stopped after 40 minutes I cant get back. Dont be seduced by the big names...they're awful. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/07/25 Full Review Ben N Cute character for Emma Stone, not sure how well it fit in with the plot. Overall the plot was rushed - it felt disconnected and as if the feeling of the scenes was being shoved into your face. A miss for me dispite many reasons to want to like it. This felt like a parody of a Crowe film, to the point it reminded me of a Wes Anderson flick, and not the best ones either. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/21/24 Full Review G B O filme não se desenvolve! A capitã é muito engessada e masculinizada para o desenrolar desse romance. O roteiro não é bom e fiquei sem entender a proposta do roteiro. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/19/24 Full Review Steven H What on earth is going on in this movie!? So many great actors and scenery yet it’s like a huge plan that can never take off. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/11/24 Full Review Read all reviews
