Waterworld (1995)

  • What's it about?: In the future when the world is covered in water, a lone drifter played by Kevin Costner comes upon a girl who may hold the key to dry land and now must protect her from a bunch of pirates.
  • Thoughts: Honestly despite the bad rap this movie gets, it's kind of a guilty pleasure. Sure, Kevin can be kind of an asshole and the movie can get boring sometimes, but there's some cheese, the action scenes are kinda cool and the bad guys are fun. If you're going to watch it, find the Ulysses Cut.
