    Shailene Woodley shined in this movie, and after the movie all I wanted to do was book a trip to Hawaii!

    When movies are often easily typed, this is a pleasant outlier. When it escapes being labelled,it can present a unique and unpredictable story. All the actors, especially Clooney and the young girls, look and sound real. the sets seem like homes. Spectacular film. A visual and emotional feast.

    No one to care about. Nothing to get involved with. Dialogue sounds like it was written by a psychotherapist. Horrible Hawaiian music. Classic example of the dreadful state of American popular "culture". The triumph of Oprah-ism, Yecch.

    George Clooney at his best playing an ordinary guy facing the same type of realities that all of us face on a daily basis. Great performance by the entire cast.

    Great movie. Wonderful acting. It was funny and sad. A bit of a different character for George which is always good.

    Well-acted, good story. The actresses who played the parts of George Clooney's daughters were amazing.
