See where the Finding ‘Ohana scavenger hunt was shot, the boneyard from Kong Skull Island, the Jumanji area, the ATV hill from Mike & Dave, Godzilla’s massive footprints, and see several other locations including the famous gate site from 50 First Dates, and numerous Hawaii Five-O and Magnum PI areas! You might even see a filming in progress! You will also stop at a historical WWII army bunker, built entirely into the side of the mountain range.


Hop aboard a vintage school bus and see many of the famous and iconic sites at Kualoa. The logical question arises from that: do these movies need to be that cognizant? But I'd rather they were somewhat mindful of the world they inhabit than mindless.Experience our familiar Ka’a’awa Valley, known as Hollywood’s “Hawaii Backlot,” to see where over 200 Hollywood movies and TV shows have been filmed since the 1950’s … from Elvis classics and Jurassic Park, right up to Jumanji and the new Netflix “Finding ‘Ohana” blockbuster! While the movie thinks it's way smarter than it actually is (dinosaurs are a metaphor for global warming and civil rights and other social issues!), it at least tries to tap into some of those ideas. That makes it not only better than its predecessor, but the best sequel in the franchise (even if that's not saying much). The movie brings that to its natural conclusion, and is probably the only sequel that actually raises the stakes by the end of the movie. But "Fallen Kingdom" is the most self-aware of all of the "Jurassic" sequels: people are really dumb, we keep getting ourselves into the same situations, and that's the point. It's easy to regurgitate the same concept over and over again, but it's actually hard to make it worthwhile.

The problem with the "Jurassic" sequels is that none of them have quite been able to justify their existence.
