Not secretly great or anything but certainly not as terrible as legend would have it. Either way the production design, miniature effects, and stuntwork are completely unbelievable, and it takes serious suicidal audacity to try to shoot something of this scale on the open water. Imagine George Miller directing this.
All I chose to remember about this movie was watching Kevin Kostner drink his own pee.
Mad Max: Cruise Control. very broad and childish take on a george miller action apocalypse but still an absolutely incredible feat of analog design work and open sea stunts and spectacle. not really sure why it's 3 hours long tho lol.
The Seattle baseball team should slap Kevin Costner’s weathered, unshaven mug on their caps in tribute to the greatest Mariner of them all.
This film opens on a stream of piss coming out of Kevin Costner. Then Kevin Costner drinks his own piss. Eventually someone steals Kevin Costner's lime tree and he has to go sell dirt to Jeff Lebowski's landlord for sea shells. It is at this point that Kevin Costner is found to have fish gills behind his ears and webbed toes. He is imprisoned for this. A water skier jumps off a giant ramp Fonzie-style and flies into a cage that contains Kevin Costner. A bald Dennis Hopper appears with an umbrella and two midgets. Kevin Costner escapes and shoots a harpoon gun at a rusty fishing boat. It blows up in a fiery mushroom cloud like it was hit…
Too ambitious to hate but too absurd to take seriously. It's a humourless multi-million dollar bellyflop.
Shitworld.

Damals irgendwo in Götzis
An einem lauen Nachmittag in den späten 90ern saß ein kleiner Junge überbrodelndem Enthusiasmus auf dem Sofa seines Vertrauens, der Oberkörper frei, das vom Leib gerissene T-Shirt ein herunterbaumelnder Stück Stofffetzen, die nackte Bubenbrust blutig gezeichnet seines Kampfes, die Arme zum Sieg gereckt und er selbst erhoben des Podestes seines unter ihm liegenden kleinen Bruders und dem Kampf um den Zauberstab, die Wunderlampe und dem Zauberhut als die Fernbedienung.
Der kleine Junge hielt also die Fernbedienung, der Türöffner für das Wunsch- und Zauberland krampfhaft fest des errungenen Sieges eines vorher und nachher vorausgegangenen und folgenden Brunftschreies, des männlichen Gebärens eines auf die Brust klopfens, das ausfahren der Beine, der Schultern und der Arme, kostete seinen…
Unironically a great movie. For a post-apocalyptic it's actually a lot of fun. It's got all the big budget (action/adventure) spectacle you could ever wish for in a movie.
I can't believe that Michelle had never seen this before. So glad she enjoyed it. I had feeling she would.
I don't get all the hate for this. I loved this when I was 12 and I still loved it. Dennis Hopper alone makes this worth a watch. Very fun film!!
(3 Hour Ulysses Cut)
The notorious Waterworld delivers a fantastic rustic sci-fi premise, gorgeous photography, fun action, but then gets so ridiculously silly by the end.
"Dry land is not just our destination, it is our destiny!"
It is crazy how much this movie gets bashed, but that was not the case in my home growing up since it was my dad's favorite movie. Likely because he worked as a Navy diver, and loves over the top action movies. So it was a treat to watch the epically glorious extended cut of the film with him for the first time. It had been so long since I had seen the movie, that I really did not notice most of the…
