Charlton Heston stars in The Hawaiians, the epic sequel to the highly acclaimed Hawaii, based on James A. Michener’s sprawling tale of a tropical paradise. Heston plays Captain Whip Hoxworth, the grandson of Rafer Hoxworth, who returns to the island intent on leaving his life at sea behind him. Finding himself excluded from his grandfather’s estate, Whip and his wife, Purity (Geraldine Chaplin), face the unknown as they struggle to build a new and prosperous life in the unforgiving environs of the South Sea.

Charlton Heston isn't one of those actors that I particularly like. His macho approach doesn't sit well with me, and it doesn't sit well with me in this film either, although he may be trying to show how the white man managed to damage such beautiful places like Hawaii. But the Chinese and other Asian actors here are much more interesting than the main star. ()
