Good movie
Added 11/9/2009
Interesting idea, our world covered by endless oceans due to global warming. People somehow surviving in a world like that. A few flaws, like wooden boats and towns ... where's the trees? But still beautiful underwater scenes.
Kevin is his normal Quiet Hero self, and Dennis Hopper is hilarious as the villian. A good movie that got horrible reviews that it didn't deserve. Well worth watching.

Splash your cash

If you are a fan of Waterworld then this is a must buy as not only do you get the original theatrical cut but also the extended version which i must say made a lot more sense to the story telling & fills in some of the gaps that the original had not to mention you get more of James Newton Howard's music score which I also hope gets a future release

Under-Rated and Maligned, but a Great Action Movie
Added 8/3/2009
I am pleasantly surprised to see I am not the only person who immensely enjoyed Waterworld, the unfairly maligned diamond in the rough that was almost universally panned when it was first released. To me, the film is essentially The Road Warrior on water instead of the desert. However, just because it copies the formula on another great post-apocalyptic action thriller, in no way diminishes the entertainment value. The film does have some logical gaps, and the acting by Costner is a little flat, but the film works for me within the realm of its own world - it is possible that with the world covered by water, and very few people left, there could be a dichotomy of civilizations remaining. The atoll people would live a meager existence, in an almost sustainable fashion, while the smokers are living a dead-end lifestyle that's fueled by the remnants of the past: canned food, Jack Daniels, cigarettes, and a dwindling supply of oil in an ancient tanker.
This film is a lot of fun, don't let the bad press keep you from this unfairly maligned film.
