Aloha Also Means Goodbye is a story of the past colliding with the present. When lovers from long ago meet unexpectedly decisions need to be made - kind of a "do I" or "don't I" scenario. Filmed on the island of Maui, a stunning visual character in itself, the story unfolds and emotional depths are revealed. Can their love truly fade or will the right time reveal itself to rekindle?

What if you got a second chance with the one who got away... in paradise? Bryden Lando’s Aloha Also Means Goodbye explores this intriguing question through a beautifully crafted romantic drama set against the stunning backdrop of Hawaii. The story centers on an over-worked, stressed-out mother whose marriage is on the brink of collapse. A business trip takes her to the serene shores of Hawaii, where she unexpectedly reunites with her free-spirited ex-lover. This chance encounter sparks a whirlwind adventure and a journey of self-discovery, blending romance with personal growth. Lando’s direction is adept at juxtaposing the protagonist's hectic, high-pressure life with the relaxed, almost magical environment of Hawaii. The film skillfully uses the natural beauty and cultural richness of the islands to create a vivid contrast that enhances the protagonist's emotional journey. The lush landscapes, vibrant colors, and serene beaches provide a perfect setting for the unfolding drama. The chemistry between the lead actors is undeniable and forms the heart of the film. Their performances bring depth to their characters, making their rekindled romance believable and emotionally engaging. The protagonist's transformation, prompted by the rediscovery of an old love, is depicted with nuance and sensitivity, allowing viewers to connect with her struggles and triumphs. While the film touches on familiar romantic themes, it does so with a fresh perspective. The narrative delves into the complexities of love and second chances, exploring how past relationships can shape and influence present choices. The protagonist's internal conflict and the dynamic with her ex-lover are portrayed with realism, avoiding clichés and delivering genuine, heartfelt moments. Supporting characters add richness to the story, each contributing to the protagonist’s journey in meaningful ways. The interactions with her ex-lover reveal layers of her personality and desires that have long been suppressed by her demanding life. These encounters are both light-hearted and deeply reflective, providing a balanced and engaging storyline. Visually, Aloha Also Means Goodbye is a feast for the eyes. The cinematography captures the essence of Hawaii, making it not just a setting but a character in itself. The film’s pacing allows for moments of introspection amidst the scenic beauty, drawing viewers into the protagonist’s transformative experience. In conclusion, Aloha Also Means Goodbye is a charming and evocative film that successfully blends romance and self-discovery. Bryden Lando has crafted a story that resonates with anyone who has pondered the possibilities of second chances. The film’s strengths lie in its strong performances, captivating setting, and the emotional depth of its characters. It’s a heartwarming tale that invites viewers to reflect on their own lives and the paths not taken, all while basking in the enchanting allure of paradise. This film is a must-watch for those who appreciate thoughtful, visually stunning romantic dramas.

The story of a struggling couple coping with their relationship and a new baby, when an old flame inadvertently re-enters the picture. Re-united through a business trip to Maui, young Alice takes a soulful journey of "what-could-have-been and what-could-still-be." This film features a great premise and is beautifully shot and thought-provoking, featuring some very nice acting, although at times a little wandering script. Acting performances are solid with Stephanie Lynn featured as Alice Monrow and Evan Gamble, as her re-united Maui love interest Taylor Hargrove. Director Bryden Lando is skillful with both cast and using the island location as a character of its own. Scenes are often beautifully shot, although at times the sounds of the breathtaking scenery seems to take over the audio track, which certainly speaks to the indie nature of this film. While not perfect, this is a nice little indie and my take is: RECCOMEND. My Rating: 🎥🎥🎥🎥 (four of five film canisters)
