Movie Theaters
Oahu is home to beaches, culture, surfing and a world-class array of sights to explore the Hawaiian heritage. Escape when it’s rainy, nighttime or to hide a bit from the sunburn and catch a flick at some of the most comfortable movie theaters on the island. Regal Pearl Highlands Stadium 12 in Pearl City offers the latest movies; grab lunch beforehand and then indulge in some not-so-healthy snacks for a couple hours. A supermarket is nearby so if you’re going to sneak snacks, you can buy them cheaper here. Sharkey Theater is a local place and if you’re on a budget, this theater is a good pick. They take cash only and if you’re military, there’s a discount. The movies are not the latest but it’s a good place to watch that movie you missed in the theaters by just a few weeks that may not be available on DVD just yet. Consolidated Theatres has locations in both Mililani and Aiea, so you can plan a shopping excursion at the mall. Regal Entertainment Group has locations in Kaneohe and Honolulu too. Join the Regal Crown Club if you’re not already a member for freebies and discounts at the concession stand.
