Liz B @LizTHEbiz 12h I thought chemistry between Jason Markoff and Jamie Kennedy was great! It's a fun movie with a bit a mystery and myth. See more Danny P @Poppzero 14h Namaka is a gem of a movie. It is a captivating fantasy mystery about what happens when a modern day tourist crosses paths with a figure from Hawaiian mythology. The film has a subtle charm that makes it fun to watch the mystery unfold. The cast delivers excellent performances and the scenery is beautiful. If you are a fan of indie films or fantasy you should check this movie out. See more Jack K. @JackJack79 Jan 22 I freaking love this movie. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen. It’s funny, weird, mysterious and a little bit sexy at times. It’s based on Polynesian mythology but told from the point of view of an outsider on vacation in Hawaii. Well shot with great performances, especially from Jamie Kennedy, who plays a fun character similar to the movie expert character he played in Scream nearly 30 years ago. If you like Jamie, or Hawaii, or unique independent films that have something to say about the world around us, you’ll like this movie. Oh, and the twist ending is really fun! See more Athena B @GoDolphins Dec 23 But like can I get my money back tho? The gf picked this one. Might break up with her for realz. I don’t leave review but damn want my time back yo See more Bob S @Golfer90pro Dec 20 What was this? Who directed it? How does this stuff get made? Questions we will never know. Need my time back. This is why I miss cable. Could turn the Channel back then and now you commit to watching something and have to log out and into another app. Idk what this was. Skip it and turn off devices or go back to Netflix See more Missy M @RT99794959 Nov 20 Namaka is such an intriguing and captivating film. I loved how the ending pulled everything together and made me want to rewatch the beginning with a new perspective. Amazing job! See more Read all reviews
