Harry W Jun 26, 2018 White Water summer is one of the two Kevin Bacon movies featuring white rapids. This one is the more jovial one as he plays a camp coach to a bunch of youngsters. The usual follies follow. The direction is good, and some outdoor scenes of the wilderness are quite good. Still, this is one of those easily forgotten movies that Kevin Bacon made to probably earn a paycheck. Good one-time watch. See more
