Kevin Reynolds' Costner follow-up to "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" is a fun, if totally goofy and sometimes boring and ridiculous film. It's so bad it's good, and you can say that about very few films (laughs uncontrollably). No, it's what... Full review

"Waterworld" is one of those movies that everyone would rather passively make fun of rather than take the time to watch. This is unfortunate, because it really is a good movie. Sure, it's borrowing a lot from "Mad Max," but... Full review

Waterworld" is ugly, loud, stupefyingly absurd and, given Hollywood's renown for creative accounting, unlikely to turn a profit until Hell freezes over, an event I suppose will provide perfect material for the next Kevin Costner epic.
The technical challenge of making such a wet movie must have been awesome, and the movie is well made, for what it is, as they say.

The most expensive film ever made doesn't look terribly expensive.
Indeed, despite its confused impulses and occasional slow spots, ``Waterworld,'' released this week on video, has an elusive, appealing spirit that holds up for more than two hours.

Right off the top, audiences will notice that the most expensive film ever made doesn't look terribly expensive.
But taken for what it is, despite its confused impulses and occasional slow spots, ``Waterworld'' has an elusive, appealing spirit that holds up for more than two hours.

Tripplehorn's sheer sexiness in her fishnet sheath brightens up the picture, but she's basically wasted as a generic action love interest.
With the help of the atoll's beautiful barmaid, Helen (Jeanne Tripplehorn), he manages to escape in his ingeniously jury-rigged trimaran.

The cost controversy aside, " Waterworld " is a decent futuristic action picture with some great sets, some intriguing ideas, and a few images that will stay with me.
The movie doesn't care.
