Summary: REVIEW OF THE DVD, NOT THE FILM
Review: First off, the movie is a classic, epic, love story. I give the DVD 2 stars only because the transfer is beautiful. I find it absolutely absurd that Paramount has released such a bare-bones version of this film. It was a HUGE success and there are so many documentaries, deleted scenes, music videos, storyboards, interviews, etc that SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED! If they want to release a 10th Anniversary edition in 2007 thats fine, but they should have dropped the price on this crapper YEARS ago! 25 bucks? 19 bucks? Are you kidding me? It should have dropped to 14.99 at least 2 years ago! UUGGHH!! While TERRIBLE FILMS like '8 Crazy Nights' and 'Hulk' get the 2 disc treatment, the Academy Award winning TITANIC gets 1 disc with NO special features? Whats wrong with this picture?

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: REviewing DVD NOT the movie
Review: First off I liked the movie. I do not like the DVD. When you consider how huge this movie was it is shameful that the only extras anyone could come up with is only one of the 7 or 8 trailers/TV Spots and some trivia in text format.

Think about that for a minute. How many interviews, TV Specials and featurettes did you see when this thing came out? Where are they? No idea. All I know is they aren't on this disc; so if you're looking for extra footage or bloopers or even a "Making Of" short, do not buy this DVD.

On the positive side, unlike the VHS, at least it is condensed to one disk without hurting the video or sound appreciably.

Undoubtedly there will be a 2-3 disc Special Edition or Directors Cut at the 10th anniversary. You've waited this long, hold out till 2007.

Summary: Good, But not a great film...
Review: Okay, I've been reading all the reviews of this movie, and even though I've already posted my review, I felt the need to do it again. I like this movie because it accurately portrays the evnts of the sinking, and, also, it shows what the human race is like when disaster strikes. I'm very into the Titanic itself, learning about the history and events of that time. However, even saying all this.... this was not an extraordinary movie on the whole, and certainly not the best movie ever made. If you don't know anything about the time in which this movie takes place, or even interested in it, you probably won't like it or understand it. And the acting certainly wasn't great. The dialog at times was cliched and predictable. The special effects, at the time, were the one thing the movie had that was great, to even die-hard haters. I, myself, was partial to automatically give this movie a great rating, simply because I am so interested in the subject. But after reading the reviews of other people, I can see why not everyone will like it. But so what? If you don't like it, you don't like it. But do we need to argue like children? I understand why the people that liked it did, and I also understand why the people that didn't like it, didn't like it. But give it a rest already. If you really didn't like the movie, then why are you wasting your "supposed" intelligence to keep complaining about it? Titanic was made over 6 years ago, so just move on. And if you DO like the movie.... then just keep liking it and stop wasting your time arguing over something pointless. Anyway, with that said, I found this movie great for die-hard TITANIC fans, and just average for the others :)

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: RATING FOR THE DVD NOT THE MOVIE
Review: THIS WAS A SORRY WAY TO DO TITANIC!!!!! I COULD NOT WAIT FOR THIS TO COME OUT ON DVD BECAUSE I LOVE EXTRA FEATURES AND I "KNEW" THAT THIS WOULD HAVE A LOT BECUASE IT WAS SUCH A SCCESSFUL MOVIE!!!! BUT NO, I GET IT AND LOOK ONTHE BACK, AND WHAT DO I SEE....NOTHING!!! ONE EXTRA FEATURE...A THEATRICAL TRAILER...I WAS LIKE 'WHAT'??? THIS MOVIE GROSSED 600 MILLIONE! WON 11 ACADEMY AWARDS, CRITICLY PRAISED..ADN ONLY ONE EXTRA...WHAT A DISAPOINTMENT!!! WHERE ARE THE DIRECTOR COMMENTARYS, THE ENDLESS TV APPEARANCES BY THE CAST, THE MUSIC VIDEOS, EVERYTHING THAT THIS MOVIE GOT ON TV SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THIS DVD. WHAT ABOUT THE AWARDS SHOW? PUT THAT ON THE DVD, SHOW THE CREW GETTING THE AWARDS THEY GREATLY DESERVED...HOPEFULLY, THE PROPLE WHO PUT THIS ON DVD WILL CATCH WORD OF MOUTH ABOUT THIS HIGE MISTAKE AND MAKE A NEW DVD, AND HAVE THE LIMITLESS EXTRAS, FANS OF THIS MOVIE WERE EXPECTING!!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Pretty Good Movie
Review: I think there is a reason why this movie is getting trashed so much. People who have low self esteem and haven't really accomplished a lot in life make themselves feel better by tearing down something that is extremely popular such as the movie Titanic. This movie made $600 Million in the United States, has sold millions of videos and DVDs, and it averages three and a half stars? Most likely a lot of those who hate this movie don't get out much and write a lot of negative reviews in this forum.

First of all, the movie is not perfect. Some of the dialogue in this movie is written so poorly it's hard to watch at times. James Cameron can direct amazing action sequences but he has trouble directing two people in a room talking to each other. And of course, there is the love story which is far from original. Girl in the arranged marriage and she falls in love with another man who happens to come from the wrong side of the tracks. Then there is the fact that wealthy people are stuck up snobs and they are shown in bad light. Don't you love it when an industry as rich as Hollywood makes movies making wealthy people look bad?

With so much wrong why four stars? With all that is wrong with it the movie has a sense of elegance. The story moves along at a good pace. With the obvious distractions I was never bored in this three hour plus flick. Yeah, the first hour or so was a little slow but once the Titanic hits that ice berg the film picks up pace. There is a sense of awe watching this great ship begin to sink. However, it loses a lot of it's grandeur on the small screen. The score by James Horner is really nice although I am one of those grouches who hated the Celine Dion song the first time I heard it. Then there is Billy Zane. He had a small role but I hated him. I was supposed to hate his character and he pulled that job off. I didn't care a whole lot for Jack Dawson one way or another but I really hated that Calvin Hockley. This is not a perfect movie by any means, nor is it a terrible movie. There are those who hate the fact that this one the Best Picture award but hey, so did Shakespeare in Love and Gladiator. Enjoy.

The only thing missing on this DVD is a documentary. A lot went wrong while making this movie including a poisoned crew, a bloated budget, and a shot that run longer than expected. Maybe a special two set DVD will be released someday.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Eye of the Beholder?
Review: Titanic the movie came out when I was in third grade, and I was the only one in my class who didn't see it. You have no idea how happy I am about it. My friends all told me that it was a waste of time, and not even to bother with the movie, but I knew I had to see it. When the movie came out, my dad and I watched every documentary on the Titanic, knew every fact, read every book. Now I've finally seen the movie. 6 years later, I finally understand why those 8 year olds didn't like the movie. They didn't get a single detail about it. But I'll tell you what...I cried like a baby almost an hour before the end. So now my friends have fair warning...tell me that the movie stinks and I'll tie you down to the couch and force you to watch it until you can memorize the movie. :-D
