Movies Filmed in Hawaii

Hawaii has some of the most beautiful scenery in the world, perfect for Television shows and movies. Hawaii has been a prime location for shooting independent and major motion pictures, surf videos, travel and lifestyle shows. The film industry in the islands continues to thrive as the Islands grow more diverse and beautiful every day. From volcanoes to snow-covered mountain caps to sea-level reef shots, the Hawaii offers a range of views that no other location can. Upon doing some research, I was amazed to find out just how many movies have used Hawaii for part or all of their filming. Here is a list from the last 10 years, and I have a feeling there are more that I may have missed!
