Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - So excited!
I am so excited I found this site.
When the movie came out, my friends and I went to the Theater and saw it 2 times. Then we went back the next day and saw it again.
I love the Hawaiian setting, it made me really want to visit Hawaii. I finally got my wish and went to Hawaii in 2006. I took a cruise and spent 3 days in Wakiki. I had intentions to visit the Moana hotel, hoping the Moana Room is still there, but I ran out of time. Does anyone know it the Moana room still exist?

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - BFFL
"Gidget Goes Hawaiian" (1961) was the first Gidget (girl plus midget) sequel. James Darren continued as love interest Moondoggie but Sandra Dee was replaced by Deborah Walley. This role made Walley (a serious and talented actress) into a sudden teen sensation and probably insured that her acting would never be taken seriously. She was my first really big crush although not from this movie (I was too young to care about teen movies) but from "Summer Magic", a children's film she did for Disney several ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Deborah Walley's Best Movie
This movie is terrific on many levels. It is very well written. The dialogue and timing are exquisite. It is the best Gidget movie and it is also Deborah Walley's best movie. Seeing Hawaii about 50 years ago is also a real treasure. The music is fun and the dancing is great. The young love with Gidget and others is very realistic. It will make you want to be young again and in love in the 50s and 60s. This is a movie which you can watch again and again. It just gets better. That is very unusual for a ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Let's All Go Hawaiian!!!
This movie is a load of fun, as is the original. While I think that the late Sandra Dee was the best Gidget, Deborah Walley (RIP)is definitely running a close second!!! Now that all three of the Gidget films are available on DVD in one collection (it's about time!), it is such a fantastic trip down nostalgia lane.

Gidget is so upset over her parents' surprise Hawaiian vacation, and her boyfriend Jeff's (Moondoggie) seeming indifference to her going away, that she ends up dating a dancer ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great '60s Kitsch!
I love this movie the best of all Gidget movies. Although Deborah Walley wasn't actually my favorite Gidget, she does a good job and this story line is one to make you feel wonderful. I love the characters, the clothes and the Hawaii of the 1960s, when it was a pleasure to visit and not so over crowded and touristy like it is today. This is a perfect lazy Saturday night or rainy Sunday afternoon movie; a classic for Gidget fans everywhere! You won't go wrong with this one.
