Costner plays The Mariner, a drifter who encounters a young girl named Enola (Tina Majorino) with a map to the fabled Dryland tattooed on her back. The Mariner decides to he...

    To be clear, I am not saying Waterworld is a good movie, nor will I ever. I approach it with the same obsessive joy that I do when I rewatch Congo for the 80th time. It’s a genuinely captivating artifact of so many broken parts that I can’t help but giggle like an idiot every time I start thinking about watching it again. There are also a handful o...

    Dennis Hopper, on the other hand, simply cannot help but be entertaining, regardless of how shitty the movie around him is. As I said earlier, there are a few good ideas in Waterworld, and hands down the best one is casting Hopper as the leader of a bunch of petroleum-worshipping doomsday pirates. He lives in the wreckage of the Exxon Valdez, which...

    Waterworld is an amazingly entertaining film, with epic and stunning action sequences. Waterworld stars Kevin Costner, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Tina Majorino, and Dennis Hopper. They all act amazingly in this film. I also love the astonishing sets they built for the film like, the Atoll. Waterworld is an awesome and breathtaking film.
