Cameron Crowe‘s new movie ALOHA (originally titled DEEP TIKI) is one many have wondered about for a while. Details were mysterious, and the film itself experienced delays, until today when we finally get to see a trailer. The star-studded cast includes Bradley Cooper, Rachel McAdams, Emma Stone, Danny McBride, John Krasinski, Alec Baldwin and Bill Murray – wow! In the story Cooper plays a weapons consultant assigned to Hawaii, where he finds his former love that got away. It looks like a fun dramedy, but also looks almost interchangeable with any other Crowe film… which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Take a look for yourself and see what you think, and tell us your thoughts in the comments..
A 37-year-old disgraced US weapons consultant named Brian Gilcrest is disliked by most everyone. His only friend is a techie named Jeremy “a super-smart and highly aware computer”. As a response to aggression from China, Gilcrest is deployed to a dormant military base in Hawaii to supervise the launch of an advanced spy satellite. Together with the anal and humorless Major Lisa Ng, he must secure the blessings of the native Hawaiian council before the launch. Gilcrest also gets a chance to meet with Tracy, the one love of his life who got away, along with her husband and two kids. On the island he discovers himself.
