Kevin may have been smiling, but it was only to hide the pain.
Waterworld was the Heaven's Gate of the 1990s - a monumental
blockbuster that cost the earth and delivered only water.
After Leonardo Di Caprio's success a year earlier, Costner is said
to have announced that this film would be his Titanic. Sadly it
emulated the boat rather than the film.
Set in a future where global warming has drowned all countries,
it was actually quite a good film. But, sadly, in the wrong place
at the wrong time.
