Costner's last film with robust earnings, 1995's Waterworld, was a chaotic venture ("Kevin's Gate," critics called it) and the most expensive movie ever made at the time. His last big western, The Postman, in 1997, was seen as a risible catastrophe by most critics (and by a few, like this one, as an ornery and stirring achievement).

...WATERWORLD One of the best reasons to visit the Andamans can be found underwater. With more than 200 islands and countless reefs?many of which have yet to be explored?the Indian island chain harbors some of the most diverse marine life in South Asian waters. Unlike Asian reefs decimated by dynamite and cyanide fishing and eroded by toxic runoff, Andaman coral thrives.
