Profile of Waterworld

The mood of Waterworld is stylized, bleak, and exciting. The plot centers around an apocalypse, lone wolves, and social misfits. It is an action, adventure, and sci-fi movie. Stylistically, Waterworld is futuristic and is epic. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. It takes place, at least partly, in an ocean or sea and on an island. Waterworld is known for being an award winner. It is especially suggested for a boys' night. Note that it includes violent content.

Summary of Waterworld

After the melting of the polar ice caps, most of the globe is underwater. Some humans have survived, and even fewer still, notably the Mariner (Kevin Costner), have adapted to the ocean by developing gills. A loner by nature, the Mariner reluctantly befriends Helen (Jeanne Tripplehorn) and her young companion, Enola (Tina Majorino), as they escape from a hostile artificial island. Soon the sinister Smokers are pursuing them in the belief that Enola holds the key to finding the mythical Dryland.

stylish but long

It's a LONG film. There are a lot of two hours films but this one is slow and feels even longer. The story is interesting; in the future the world will be covered by water from the melted icecaps. Everyone searches for land (a rumor says some of it... Read and rate it
