Summary: "Titanic" DVD review
Review: This is a really great movie. My fav of all time, but they really need to come out with a special edtion DVD. The speical features really SUCKED on the recent one and many people who would have bought it but were boreder line probaly decide not to buy it because there were not that great of features. All I am saying is that the moive makers would highly benifit from this. They would make millions and please many fans my self include. So please if you have any power what so ever in this matter please convince someone that this a good idea. PS: it would be great if they started ad's for the movie very soon so people will antipatit it more and you might get a few people to go buy the recent DVD to remind them selfs how the moive plays out. please help me

Summary: The Maiden Voyage
Review: O.K. I'll admit it, while I'm usually not much for the sappy romantic films, James Cameron's Oscar winning epic Titanic is a very good movie. And I did see it more than once on the big screen. An undersea expedition, led by explorer Brock Lovett (Bill Paxton), is searching for a valuable diamond aboard the wreckage of the Titanic. The team, instead finds a drawing of seventeen-year-old Rose DeWitt Bukater, (Kate Winslet) who is on the way to her wedding to wealthy tycoon, Cal Hockley (Billy Zane). Now an old woman (Gloria Stuart) Rose tells her story of the fateful voyage to the team. While the ship races to meet its fate with an iceberg, Rose falls in love with Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio) a free-spirited artist and third-class passenger who ignites a passion inside her. The film itself is a technical marvel. Cameron and his crew recreated the ship and her history with such skill and percision that it's easy to go along for the ride. I liked the way the fictional story of Jack and Rose was interlaced with actual historical figures and facts. For example "The Unsinkable" Molly Brown (Kathy Bates), Captain Edward J. Smith (Bernard Hill), and shipbuilders J. Bruce Ismay (Jonathan Hyde) & Thomas Andrews (Victor Garber), all have a place within the love story. Speaking of which, for me, it's Stuart that sells the romance. Acting as "narrator", she makes it possible to care about these characters more than you would have otherwise. The chemistry between DiCaprio and Winslet is very apparent and Zane is pitch perfect as Cal. The sinking sequence is really something and no disaster film since has matched its scope. As it stands right now, the DVD doesn't have any bonus material on it, save for the theatrical trailer. Enough time has passed that another edition is warranted. That said, the bare bones DVD is recomended. For some additiional perspective on the history of the disaster, I also suggest, James Cameron's documentary Ghosts Of The Abyss.

Summary: Excellent motion picture
Review: By far the best Titanic Motion Picture! At this point in the review process it would be pointless to tell you about this movie. So many other reviewers have already done it pretty darn good.
However, I can tell you that I wholeheartedly enjoyed this motion picture. An absolutely great picture that is a must see. If you haven't seen this picture, then you should. This is a movie to own!

Summary: Why not anamorphic???
Review: One of the most spectacular movies ever released on DVD and not anamorphic. What gives? I give the movie 4 stars overall, but probably 1 star for technical delivery.

Summary: Complete Rubbish
Review: People have favorite movies. I can honestly say this is the least favorite movie I have ever seen. It's overblown, sappy, much too long and emotionally empty. It must have launched the return of the movie epic for its three hours, but doesn't match the standards today. When the movie first came out and garnered rave reviews, a friend of mine and I waited two months to see it hoping the crowds would have died down. We managed to grab the last two seats. I hated it as much then as I hate it now and couldn't believe I wasted my money. People who'd seen the film said it didn't feel like three hours. THEY LIED! I could not wait for that boat to sink and just seemed to kae forever. It would have been somewhat decent had Cameron stuck to the emotional suspense of the sinking boat and left out the sappy love story completely! Or redirected the love story in such a manner that DiCaprio and Winslet meet for a brief moment at the start of the journey and go about their business since the two are from two different classes and cannot be seen associating with one another. Then boom: iceberg hits. People begin to wonder what's wrong and slowly as the disaster worsens throughout the ship, Winslet and DiCaprio by necessity and circumstance end up having to depend on each other for survival. Slowly their relationship develops, not sexually, but a little more as a result of two people from different classes who come to respect one another because of the trouble they went through together. Then as Dicaprio's character dies, it would really be a heart-wrenching loss. When he sank into the ocean in that film, I was overjoyed. James Cameron had all the right opportunities to make this a poignant film, but he took the cheaters way out. What got me the most was that this film actually beat out genuine talent to win 11 oscars. It was deserving of maybe two or three technical awards, to include a noteworthy best score. At it's best, this is nothing more than another of Cameron's action films. Other annoyances: Celine Dion's music video with her standing on the bow of the ship singin something as lofty as "My Heart Will Go On" while scenes of passengers dying and falling into icy waters. Completely incongruent and somewhat nightmarish. And to think that people paid money to watch this film seven times in a row! Complete waste of a movie and thankfully not part of my DVD collection.

Summary: Agree the movie is about a worthless event!
Review: P. Landry was right when he said that the movie celebrates something that shouldn't be remembered at all. The Spanish Influenza pandemic, on the other hand, stopped society as we knew it. People couldn't even get on a train without a mask on. The sinking of the dumb Titanic didn't do that to society. Hollywood wise up and make an "SI" movie!

Summary: Titanic ~ the Ship of Dreams
Review: Too many people of this site give bad reviews to this epic classic. It is one of the best films ever made in history, and is still treasured by many today. A full scale model of the ship was made to make this movie (along with other smaller models) and the interior of the grand ship is alomost identical. This movie is the closest anyone will get to being on the Titanic the way it was in 1912. I think anyone who loves a great movie should buy this, but wait until late to mid 2004 when it arrives on Special Edition DVD (rumor says it will be 4-discs). I love Titanic!
