What's Our Verdict Reviews

Waterworld (1995)


Listen Later

The primary focus of our discourse delves into the cinematic creation known as "Waterworld," a film that, despite its ambitious narrative premise of an aquatic apocalypse, ultimately falters under the weight of its own execution. Within this discussion, I express a profound incredulity regarding the persistent notion that this film possesses any inherent merit, given its status as one of the most notorious cinematic failures in history. Alec and JJ examine the film's myriad shortcomings, including its lack of coherent storytelling and the overly simplistic character development that renders the protagonist unengaging. Furthermore, we scrutinize the film's effort to convey a message about ecological catastrophe, which is undermined by its inconsistent portrayal of the world and its inhabitants. Ultimately, our analysis reveals a consensus that, while the film could benefit from a contemporary reimagining, it remains an exercise in absurdity that elicits laughter for all the wrong reasons.
