Kevin Costner poll!
Added 2025-02-25 17:00:08 +0000 UTCI realized after watching Field of Dreams that I've only seen a couple of Kevin Costner's movies! Help me choose a movie to watch next!

The postman!

2025-03-01 17:33:33 +0000 UTCBull Durham is terrific and one of Costner's most natural and winning performances. It's also one of the best written comedies and has one of Susan Sarandon's very best roles.

2025-02-28 04:59:10 +0000 UTC+1 each for "Thirteen Days" and "The Highwaymen"

2025-02-27 19:39:12 +0000 UTCThese are all good! Bull Durham (IMHO) is the best sports movie of all time and was written by former minor league player Ron Shelton. He and Costner also collaborated on Tin Cup, a great little movie about a down-and-out golf pro which is loads of fun, and (again IMHO) the only positive argument for the existence of the game. I also second The Postman, and admit that I can't watch the brilliant Thirteen Days without breaking into tears at the end.

2025-02-26 23:33:09 +0000 UTCKevin Costner is exactly 30 years older than me. We share the same birthday.

2025-02-26 21:05:02 +0000 UTCOMG I forgot about 'Mr. Brooks' (2007) !! And 'Waterworld' (1995) The Postman (1997) Criminal (2016) Thirteen Days (2000) - Is a great Cold War Cuban Missile crisis history starting point The Highwaymen (2019)

2025-02-26 18:01:24 +0000 UTCI second Waterworld (1995). #WaterworldForAddieCounts

2025-02-26 15:18:50 +0000 UTC...and Waterworld has a live show at Universal Studios Hollywood.
Alex Tan
2025-02-26 15:14:37 +0000 UTCUntouchables is top notch. No Way Out isnβt on the list but itβs also great.
Sean
2025-02-26 13:00:37 +0000 UTCWhile true, they have also become cult classics

2025-02-26 12:59:34 +0000 UTCa.k.a. 2 of the most notorious flops of the '90s... π€
Byrd N. Hand
2025-02-26 12:52:11 +0000 UTC"Mr. Brooks" (2008) "A Perfect World" (1993) directed by Clint Eastwood

2025-02-26 06:49:10 +0000 UTCThat's one of those movies I've started a bunch of times but never finished it for one reason or another.
Philip Davetas
2025-02-26 05:25:57 +0000 UTCI believe its far superior to the untouchables and i believe addie will enjoy it way more tbh
justin swan
2025-02-26 05:23:29 +0000 UTCim gonna asume youve never watch Dances with Wolves ;)
justin swan
2025-02-26 05:21:07 +0000 UTCDefinitely the Untouchables, but um... Waterworld.
MrAustincummings
2025-02-26 05:00:31 +0000 UTCI second The Postman!
David Lucas
2025-02-26 04:59:06 +0000 UTCDances and then the Postman before we riot
Casey Ryback
2025-02-26 04:41:22 +0000 UTCActually I just checked and the long version is 3 hours maybe a little bit longer you would be missing out if you don't watch this movie
Bobby Cowart
2025-02-25 23:51:49 +0000 UTCGotta be THE UNTOUCHABLES.
Philip Davetas
2025-02-25 23:19:13 +0000 UTCSo many good ones.
Patrick Anderson
2025-02-25 22:09:57 +0000 UTCWell honestly I got it on the Roku Channel with my fire stick and I got it on DVD it's the only version I watch
Bobby Cowart
2025-02-25 22:00:52 +0000 UTCMy choices out of the listed provided: THE UNTOUCHABLES, DANCES WITH WOLVES, OPEN RANGE & BULL DURHAM... any one of those 4 is a good watch... Best one out of all of them is the one Costner won Best Director for ... Dances With Wolves.
Alexander George
2025-02-25 21:42:55 +0000 UTCThe Poastman was always one of my favs, and Waterworld.
Jayson Phillips
2025-02-25 21:32:17 +0000 UTCThe theatrical cut is the only version available on Prime Video.
Alex Tan
2025-02-25 21:20:51 +0000 UTC(URGENT TO ADDIE) Since Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) is third in this poll, I HIGHLY recommend the Extended Cut of that movie.
Alex Tan
2025-02-25 21:20:18 +0000 UTCThe Untouchables is my favorite on this list, I also like Bull Durham quite a bit. π Of the Costner films not on the list, Iβd probably add in No Way Out and Mr. Brooks. (Mr Brooks is particularly unusual because Costner plays an anti-hero in it which is kind of an interesting change of pace for him!)
Doug
2025-02-25 20:33:31 +0000 UTCHonestly though I think you need to watch Dances with Wolves even if it don't win the pole you don't have to even share your reaction it's a very good movie but like I said make sure it's a long version you'll be missing out if you don't see it
Bobby Cowart
2025-02-25 20:29:39 +0000 UTCId like to give a shout out to JFK as well , he did a hell of a performance there
Rey
2025-02-25 19:59:32 +0000 UTCReally no need for the director's cut for DWW. It kills the pacing of an already slow-paced movie and Coster himself has said that the three hour theatrical version is the one he would prefer people to see.
Jeff I.
2025-02-25 19:39:18 +0000 UTCHonestly, between Untouchables, Robin Hood and Dances with Wolves, youβre not going to lose out. Bodyguard is really good too. One movie not on the list that I really love, but caution that itβs a hard watch is JFK. Maybe in November.
Matthew Periolat
2025-02-25 19:11:43 +0000 UTCThe Bodyguard has "I will Always Love You," a cover of a Dolly Parton song, by Whitney Houston. Dolly lover her version. It will tear your heart out.
Jay Perry
2025-02-25 19:03:47 +0000 UTCIt'll be over 2 hours
Bobby Cowart
2025-02-25 19:01:24 +0000 UTCDefinitely Dances With Wolves very very good movie one of my favorites make sure if you do get it get the director's cut because they cut a lot out
Bobby Cowart
2025-02-25 19:01:14 +0000 UTCA Perfect World (1993) is one of my fav's. I think Addie would enjoy it.
Josh McHugh
2025-02-25 18:53:05 +0000 UTCDances with Wolves and Open Range would be my top picks
Robert da Spruce
2025-02-25 18:45:27 +0000 UTC'Field Of Dreams' is one my least favorite movies, that's stating it mildly. All these other movies have so much more to offer.
LaserLamb
2025-02-25 17:45:12 +0000 UTCHear, hear. #WaterworldForAddieCounts
Alex Tan
2025-02-25 17:44:31 +0000 UTCNo Way Out (1987) needs to be on another poll!
Thomas Wetherell
2025-02-25 17:43:03 +0000 UTCRecommending 'Draft Day' is a 2014 Costner film about the manager of an American Football team trying to turn the team around. I'd refer to it as the Moneyball or even Field of Dreams of football films. It's not about the players on the field, it's about the people in the offices who do everything they can to allow those players to concentrate on the game.

2025-02-25 17:38:49 +0000 UTCTin Cup wouldβve been in my top 5

Chris Shine
2025-02-25 17:31:03 +0000 UTCLooks like The Untouchables may narrowly win. Kind of a shame, since I think Dances with Wolves is a much better movie overall. I found Costner's acting in Untouchables to be really bad.
Jeff I.
2025-02-25 17:28:12 +0000 UTCYep. A Kevin Costner poll without Waterworld is a crime. π
Bran Flakes
2025-02-25 17:25:00 +0000 UTCWaterworld or The Postman are my recommendations
Gremlin8723
2025-02-25 17:17:04 +0000 UTCThere isn't a single bad choice in this list
The Dingo
2025-02-25 17:16:39 +0000 UTCThe Postman gets a bunch of hate, and it does have a high cheese factor, but it is a personal Costner favorite of mine.
Luis Fernandez
2025-02-25 17:09:58 +0000 UTC"No Way Out" is a very underrated political thriller, Addie. Please consider that one too.
adam weisler
2025-02-25 17:09:50 +0000 UTCOther Kevin Costner movies for future polls that I'll recommend are Silverado (1985), Revenge (1990), Waterworld (1995), Tin Cup (1996), The Postman (1997) and Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1 (2024). #MoreKevinCostnerForAddieCounts
Alex Tan
2025-02-25 17:09:39 +0000 UTCOllie wants to "Dances with Wolves" (1990)
Randolph Tirazona
2025-02-25 17:09:24 +0000 UTCI love Robin Hood, itβs a really great version of the story. I saw it twice in the theater when it came out back in the day, so I do have a lot of nostalgia that comes with it. Plus I love the Bryan Adams song that came out just for the movie lol The Untouchables is also really great, so Iβm hoping one of the two will win this.
FWPJR.
2025-02-25 17:09:09 +0000 UTCTin Cup... but it wasn't an option
My-Coal
2025-02-25 17:08:02 +0000 UTCHappy Tuesday, Addie! π This is a great, yet tough poll to vote in since all of these are my favorite Kevin Costner movies. You're making this difficult for me. LOL! I ended up voting for "The Bodyguard" followed by "The Untouchables". Have a great day today!
Randee Carreno
2025-02-25 17:06:47 +0000 UTCNeeds "Silverado" and "No Way Out." Maybe also "The Big Chill," even though only Costner's hands and forehead are actually seen in it (his main scene was cut from the final film).
Byrd N. Hand
2025-02-25 17:04:13 +0000 UTCThe Postman is a great movie too
Endling_king
2025-02-25 17:03:17 +0000 UTCHappy Tuesday, Addie. All are great choices but since Dances with Wolves (1990) & The Untouchables (1987) are leading this poll, I'll go along with them.
Alex Tan
2025-02-25 17:02:13 +0000 UTCDances has always been one of my 5 favorite movies
