Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
It's one of those marginal pictures you're not unhappy to have seen, but can't quite recommend.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,

fresh:
In the tradition of the old Westerns and Mel Gibson's Road Warrior flicks, this film provides good escapist fun.

rotten:
Waterworld isn't Fishtar, but Kevin Costner's pricey, post-apocalyptic sloshbuckler isn't a seafaring classic either.
– Rita Kempley,
Washington Post,
1 Jan 2000
fresh:
A moderately successful guy's movie with both weak and strong elements where lots of things are brilliantly blown up and few things make any kind of sense.
– Kenneth Turan,
Los Angeles Times,

fresh:
It's a genuine vault at greatness that misses the mark -- but survives.
– Mick LaSalle,
San Francisco Chronicle,
