This movie and The Postman get a lot of hate. I enjoy both movies for what they are, popcorn entertainment without a lot of thinking required. Not everything can or needs to be The Godfather or Shawshank. Edit to add: I think a big part of the hate Waterworld and The Postman get is because they came shortly after Dances With Wolves with other high rated movies like Field of Dreams, Untouchables and A Perfect World giving Costner a somewhat 'serious actor' reputation.

* The rumor about how evolution worked so fast on The Mariner, is because it wasn't evolution. He was a product of genetic engineering. When the government realized that all the snow and ice at the north and south poles were melting, and what would happen as a result, they quickly put a black project in motion to develop human beings that can breathe underwater. The Mariner is merely the sole survivor of that black project(or, who knows, perhaps there are other survivors out there of that black project). There were nuclear submarines, but eventually even they ran out of power, but they ran out of food and water long before that. * At the end of the movie, I think they were implying that the water was receding, albeit, very, very slowly. Which implies that whatever caused the polar caps to melt in the first place(perhaps a weapon of WWIII or something) was no longer heating them in such a way, allowing them to return to their normal pre-flood temperatures. I think the film was also implying that The Mariner would return, and visit from time to time. There might also be more baddies out there besides just The Smokers. Don't worry. I know they'll never do a sequel.

Kudos to you for actually watching the movie and decide for yourself. 👍

Joe Hazelwood was the captain of the Exxon Valdez. It struck a reef, off the coast of Alaska and leaked around 11 million Gallons of crude oil, into the ocean.

Yes, many people agree with that description - Mad Max on water. Apparently, this was a very troubled shoot. At one stage, the set sunk. Despite the issues, I'm glad that in the end, they were able to deliver an enjoyable and fun film. And I think I appreciate it more as time goes on.

This was filmed in Honolulu, Hawaii and Los Angeles. The Atoll set actually sank multiple times during filming and the actresses Jeanne Triplehorn(Helen) and Tina Majorino(Enola) were bitten by crabs and piranhas so the crew had to pay their medical bills, the film went way overbudget which was part of why it bombed so badly plus Kevin Costner and Dennis Hopper had just recently done "The Postman" and the "Super Mario Bros. Movie" which weren`t that well-received by critics or audiences!

One my favorite movie as a kid from San Pedro , California.👍🍿

Hi Jen great reaction as always. So ❤️ your takes on the movies you watch. Yes Kevin Costner won an Oscar for Dances with Wolves (Priducing & Directing). Other Costner greats if you haven’t seen are, Obviously Dances, The Untouchables (loved,filmed in Chicago, my hometown), Field of Dreams, Bull Durham (another baseball film, comedy), JFK (stellar film), The Bodguard ( with Whitney Houston) No Way Out, The Postman (highly underrated) & Silverado (western) just to name a few. You will love them all. Especially Dances, Untouchables, Field of Dreams & Bull Durham. You are the best. 👏👏👏

I think this could have worked better as a mini-series and went into more detail with the world, the different factions, life on the atolls etc. There was a scene cut in the ending where they explore the peak of the mountain and find a metal plaque showing that they were standing on Mount Everest!

After Waterworld ballooned from its initial $100 million budget, people involved in the project estimated the final production cost at around $175-180 million, with Kevin Costner-also a producer on the film-confirming it had cost $172 million. Including distribution and marketing the total cost of producing and releasing the film came to $245 million. It made $264 million at the boxoffice, it was a flop because it couldn't recuperate its massive budget due to the percentage of the boxoffice revenue the movie theaters retain.

I loved this movie as the ultimate cheesy guilty pleasure; it's a lot of fun to watch BECAUSE of its outlandishness, not in spite of it. The movie didn't take itself too seriously and had a vibe of nutty fun, and my favorite movie symphony by James Newton Howard. And I admit the ending felt very uplifting because of the music.

This is one of my favorites as a child. I simply love this film. Criminally underrated for sure. There's too many people out there who haven't seen this due to negative word of mouth and that's a damn shame.

Growing up as a typical boy, “Prince of Thieves” came out at a pivotal time in my childhood, and led to many treehouses, rope swings, and staffs being fashioned out of whatever was available. Thinking about it now, it’s kind of amazing that nobody got seriously injured. When “Waterworld” came out a few years later, it seemed like Kevin Costner was speaking directly to my soul. Looking back, I see all these movies in a different light, and am a little more critical of Keven Costner as an actor, but he sure knew how to tap into the adolescent boy demographic in the early 90’s - back when kids used to play outside (he kind of jumped the shark with The Postman). I went to the Hawaiian Vaudeville Festival in 1996 on the Big Island near where a lot of the movie was filmed, and Kevin Costner’s Trimaran was still anchored off-shore. We took out an ocean kayak (there were humpback whales there at the time, which was why most people were paddling out) to go look at it, because it was just about the coolest thing, and when we saw that it was a real boat, right there, actually on the water, it instantly became a mission to go see it up close. I have a ton of movie suggestions for you, but I’ll give you two now. You mentioned how this was a flop at the start of the video, but if you want to see another big 90’s flop that’s also actually pretty amazing, watch “Cutthroat Island” from the same year. It basically ruined Geena Davis’s career (A League of Their Own, Beetlejuice, Thelma and Louise…). It’s a silly 90’s action-adventure pirate movie (which coincidently also has a similar tattoo map subplot), but one that I loved growing up. I was never able to enjoy the Pirates of the Caribbean movies because, after having watched Cutthroat Island a hundred times on VHS, it was always really obvious that Pirates of the Caribbean wasn’t filmed on location. It just never *feels* like they’re out on the open ocean; it’s actually kind of claustrophobic. It's kind of funny how you compare this movie to Pirates of the Caribbean. Waterworld is a fun, 90’s summer blockbuster, but it’s also really dark at times. I always loved how on-the-nose the villains being called the “smokers” was. Not only are they the only ones still using fossil fuels, but for some unexplained reason the oil tanker they live on apparently also had an endless supply of cigarettes - because why not. And the old guy who’s only job is to measure the oil level and hasn’t seen the sun in 50 years saying, “Thank you God” when he sees it’s all about to blow up is both hilarious and incredibly dark. I’d also like to recommend Dennis Hopper’s first film playing a leading role, which is “Night Tide” from 1961. I don’t want to spoil anything, but let’s just say it’s also ocean themed, and has some really great music. It’s an underrated film, and deserves some attention for how much it stands out from a lot of movies being made at the time in that genre. And just to round it out at three movie recommendations tangentially related to Waterworld, I’ve got one more. It’s kind of a deep cut. It’s called Airborne, from 1993, and was one of the first movies Jack Black (the airplane pilot in Waterworld) was ever in. It’s a rollerblading movie (arguably THE rollerblading movie). I haven’t watched it in years, so can’t vouch for its quality, but I’ve never talked to anyone under 30 who believed me when I told them that rollerblading was actually cool for a couple years in the early 90’s, so if you ever got around to watching that one you might break the internet.

That didn't tell me it was an oil tanker. I just thought that was their normal fuel tank.

The oil tanker they re on is named the Exxon Valdez. In March of 1989 It ran aground in Price William Sound in Alaska. It spilled 11 million gallon of oil into the sound. It was carrying 53.1 million gallons, 1.25 million barrels. This was rated number 34 biggest oil spill in the world. But it was the largest environmental disaster in the US, for at least 25 years. FYI, the ship is 987 feet long. That's more than 3 football fields long., 166 feet wide and 88 feet tall. Joseph Hazelwood was the captain at the time of the accident. He was not on the bridge at the time. The accident happened at 12:04 AM, just after midnight. But they spent the next hour trying to get the ship off of the reef, this probably opened the hole even more.

If i recall, the Atoll set was destroyed by a hurricane and had to be rebuilt.

this was my vhs tape staple

Exciting reaction, Jen. 💜 You always make a splash. Water way to have a good time. Okay, I'll stop now. 🌊 There's tons of good Costner. I'd first recommend, J.F.K. (1991), Dance With Wolves: Director's Cut (1990), A Perfect World (1993).

I love this movie. It wouldn't have been a dud if the critics hadn't damned it in print before the public had a chance to see it for themselves. I'd give it 5 stars.

LOVE this movie... Anola appeared as Deb in Napolean Dynamite!

"Dry land is not a myth! I've seen it!" I don't know what the big fuss was about this movie. I saw it in theaters nine times. It rules!

'For love of the game' and 'Field of Dreams' are my personal Costner favourites.

I *loved* this movie when it came out. Loved it. I went through a pretty heavy post-apocalyptic phase and I *love* fantasy. So this movie was right up my alley.

13:31 That dead girl was Costner's own actual daughter. She was used as an extra.

While it failed to recoup its massive budget despite being one of the highest-grossing films of its year (it was the most expensive movie of all time when it came out - around 350 Million $, adjusted for inflation) it recouped the money through home video sales later on. And the scale of the sets (where most of the money was probably spent) is mindboggling. Today, the Atoll would probably be 70% CGI. And I LOVE James Newton Howards' musical Score. Btw, there was an actual water-based movie, released the same year, which was a *catastrophic* box office desaster: Cutthroat Island. Its actually a very enjoyable flick too, worth checking out.

Never once did I think that this was a bad movie. It’s not a great movie by any stretch but solid entertainment.

Love your channel! Thanks for all the work you put into it!

Waterworld got labeled a flop but it eventually made a profit through home video sales and broadcast rights combined with the box-office.

Hey Jen. The Saint Joe Hazelwood that they mentioned was the captain of the actual Exxon Valdez. For some more Costner movies you might try The Untouchables with Sean Connery, Field of dreams or Silverado. All have great casts and stories.

Audiences back in the day would probably been excited to see Dennis Hopper in the role of the main villain, the Deacon. Hopper was a well known actor back then. He also played the villain in the first Speed movie, one which I recommend that you watch.

I love how the eye keeps changing sides.

What I always appreciated was Costners intense, aggressive and all in performance.

I hiked down to that the valley. It took a couple of hours on switchbacks down the mountain. It is a black sand beach too. Paradise 😊

The girl who plays Enola is Tina Majorino, it has been 30 years and every time I see her I remember how good this movie is.

Same!

Jen ,i propose you for the poll two action movies of 90"s decade for you react, FAIR GAME and THE SUBSTITUTE.

7:13 that man that is talking to the little girl with the map on her back played in The Green Mile ad the mouse keeper.

This is one of those movies that everybody hates, that I love.

30:05 In the 90's there was an environmental disaster when an Oil tanker called the Exxon Valdez (same ship as in this film) crashed into a reef and spilled oil all over the Prince William Sound. The captain of that ship, the one that took the brunt of the blame, was Joseph Hazelwood.

Enjoy your reactions and you're beautiful. Skal from the North Georgia mountains 🤘🤘 WaterWorld has been one of my favorites since it first came out on VHS back in the day.

A great hidden gem of a movie that a lot of people don't appreciate enough!!

I lived in Hawaii while this was being filmed and when it was released. It was a pretty big deal there. Theater was packed. I enjoyed it.

More of the lore on The Mariner`s backstory and his species can be found in the Prequel Comic "WaterWorld: Children of the Leviathan" which shows what the Icthyus Sapien civilization was like in its prime and how the Atollers,Smokers and Slavers killed all of them but the hybrid Mariner off.

Most iconic intro voice. That dude did sooo many movie trailer voice overs in the 90s.

Hi Jen hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤

Thanks John you too! :)

I love this movie and alway have. It's silly, overblown and ridiculous - and it's a whole lot of fun.

Awesome reaction to this very under-rated movie!! Yep - saw this in the theater when it first came out. Thought that it was kind of goofy, but quite fun/enjoyable. Seemed like everyone HATED this movie for whatever reason. The more I watch it the better it gets. Also, check, "The Postman" - another Kevin Costner post-apocalyptic movie that gets all kinds of HATE. It is actually a very good movie.

thank you Jen.. only you has reacted to this movie which was a Blockbuster. they were the most rented movies of the era and big success among Twister, Rambo II, Spider man, the Hulk..etc .I remember in a long waiting kist to rent this movie ..I love this movie and its concept.. it had to be you to react to this one..btw looking beautiful with the violet top as always.. ❤️
