DVD Reviews of Waterworld [HD DVD]

DVD Review: Good movie
Summary: 4 Stars

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.

DVD Review: Waterworld= Pointless,Way too long.
Summary: 1 Stars

This was pre-Al Gore winning and whinning with his nobel(whos a dunce) ,Waterworld is waaaaay too Long and Pointless. It flopped when it came out. why Bother?

DVD Review: Waterworld
Summary: 5 Stars

I enjoyed this movie when it first came out. And i am happy that i was able to find it on DVD.

DVD Review: Splash your cash
Summary: 5 Stars

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

DVD Review: Under-Rated and Maligned, but a Great Action Movie
Summary: 5 Stars

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.

Description of Waterworld [HD DVD]

Universal Waterworld - HD DVD/DVD Combo
Kevin Costner, Dennis Hopper and Jeanne Tripplehorn star in a "10+!" (Gary Franklin, KCOP), turbocharged action-adventure epic, unmatched in sheer excitement and heart-pounding suspense. In this futuristic thriller, Earth is covered with water and the human race struggles to survive on dilapidated boats and makeshift floating cities. Costner portrays a drifter who becomes caught up in the struggle between the evilDeacon (Hopper) and a child's secret key to a wondrous place called "Dryland." With refreshing humor, groundbreaking special effects and awe-inspiring action suspense, Waterworld sets a glorious high-water mark for imaginative, thrill-packed entertainment.
Let's be honest: this 1995 epic isn't nearly as bad as its negative publicity led us to expect. At the time it was the most expensive Hollywood production in history (it had a Titanic-sized $200 million budget), and the film arrived in theaters with so much controversy and negative gossip that it was an easy target for ridicule. The movie itself, a flawed but enjoyable post-apocalypse thriller, deserves better. Waterworld stars Kevin Costner as the Mariner, a lone maverick with gills and webbed feet who navigates the endless seas of Earth after the complete melting of the polar ice caps. The Mariner has been caged like a criminal when he's freed by Helen (Jeanne Tripplehorn) and enlisted to help her and a young girl (Tina Majorino) escape from the Smokers, a group of renegade terrorists led by Dennis Hopper in yet another memorably villainous role. It is too bad the predictable script isn't more intelligent, but as a companion piece to The Road Warrior, this seafaring stunt-fest is adequately impressive. --Jeff Shannon
