Commentary Track: Waterworld

For our latest commentary, the MovieFilm boys strap on our flippers and floaties and dive in to 1995’s Waterworld! The Kevin Costner sci-fi epic directed by Kevin Reynolds had a famously fraught production when it first came out, and we decided to look at it with a quarter century of hindsight to see if it was worth all the negative hubbub or whether it’s an overlooked gem that’s due for a reappraisal.
