Summary: We're not seeing the Titanic for the acting, people!!
Review: ... This is a movie about the historic Titanic sinking...everything but that is secondary!!!
For that breathtaking depiction alone, this film deserves 5 stars. Before this movie, I had never comprehended the horrific fate of this ship and her passengers. This was a HORROR movie to me! Like watching Psycho the second time...you know what's going to to happen to Janet Leigh and you just wait...tick tock, tick tock!
Knowing what was inevitable made this movie rock for me...who cares if these actors can act? To me they are just figures on a giant chess board...who survives and who doesn't is the guessing game.
Meanwhile, sit back and watch an amazing recreation of the sinking of the unsinkable. No question: Director Cameron was the right man for this job.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Movie!
Review: Picture this! It is April 14th, 1912, and you are sailing away on the luxurious liner, Titanic. When I bought Titanic, the movie sailed away into my heart, I even burst into tears at the end and that does not happen often when I watch a movie. Titanic is truly "the ship of dreams".
I floated away into the era of pure granduer and magic as Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio lit up the screen as Jack and Rose, two young lovers who are absolutely crazy for each other. However, love is hard sometimes. Rose's spirit, compared to that of a wild horse roaming the plains, is what draws herself towards Jack, who really thinks she is the greatest girl in the the world.
The sunset is my favorite scene where Rose cries out "I'm flying" before she and Jack engage in the most endearing kiss.
The Titanic then hits a lone iceburg one night. The scenes are emotional, filled with pure terror, bitterness, and the ever-lasting screams of the dying. Fifteen hundred will die. Along with the sinking comes thrilling chases and hardness of envy. When the ship sinks, Rose and Jack fight for survial, but in the end their love is star-crossed and Jack dies, but at least they are together again after death.
A beautiful movie of tenderness, adventure, and the surival to live or die on the Titanic!

Summary: EXCELENT FILM !
Review: I have a hard time understanding why some people trash this movie but then again, I remmember how in 1975 the same kind of people also would complain how "Jaws" was terrible / totally unbelievable, etc. My conclusion is that some people just feel good about themselves by showing desdain for the biggest AND BEST blockbusters.
Titanic is a terrific film, incredibly exciting and very moving. If you really didn't like it I suggest you find another hobby different to going to the movies

Summary: Titanic
Review: I loved this movie; however, I will tell you if you are expecting a historical and factual account of the past events you will be disappointed. If you watch this movie wanting to experience a gamant of emotions and to be entertained you will be left satisfied. This movie had so many interesting characters, plots and themes going on at the same time. I loved the period dress and etiquette. The love story between Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio and Rose (Kate Winslet) in my opinion is one of the great theatrical love stories in the history of the cinema. The movie layout was impeccable-the way they went from the present day to the past through the eyes of the old woman (Rose). The movie is a long one but it flows along and keeps your complete attention that you don't even realize the length of the movie. I highly recommend to those who have not seen. I can only imagine that it is a small population of viewers that have not already seen this wonderful movie.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: That Sinking Feeling
Review: That Sinking Feeling
When you raise the dead from the depths of the ocean, you should show some respect. This movie insults the past with its anachronistic characters, especially DeCrapio who spits and brats his way through the movie and falls in love with that pug muffin Kate Winslet. All around good actors are dying and we're supposed to care what happens to these two amateurs. Let's try making movies for adults because the kids this is aimed at will grow up soon enough.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A believable shipreck
Review: The story seems fictitious with Jack and Rose;it is all romance of their part. But if you look at the event when the Titanic sinks, it will touch your heart and make you cry.
So far it has made me.
I loved when the Irish aboard had their party.
So I recommend this item and also the Cds of the movie.The music is pretty and still could make you cry.
I know it so far has made me.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Only a slight rewrite of history, eh?
Review: How would you draw people into another re-telling of the sinking of the Titanic? Why, generate a fictional romance, of course, and that's just what director James Cameron did with this modern-day re-telling of the sinking of the great ship in the movie Titanic.
At slightly over three hours in length, this movie is in itself titanic. Along with the re-telling of the tragedy of the loss of the ship and passengers, it weaves a fictional love story between two unlikely individuals: Jack Dawson, a starving artist, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, and a young, aristocratic, soon-to-be married female, Rose Dewitt Brubaker, played by Kate Winslet. Unlikely as the romance may seem, the two eventually find themselves in a passionate embrace in a car stored for shipment in the bowels of the ship.
Like all great tragedies, this romance also ends, as Jack Dawson goes down with the ship, leaving Rose to pine for the rest of her life for a man she knew only briefly.
This movie, a Twentieth Century Fox/Paramount release, is well worth a watch. I rated it four stars for good special effects, and very good acting by all cast-members. Although the release of this film was surrounded by much hype and a lot of the special effects methodology was well known before it's showing, it was still possible to allow oneself to be drawn in to the spectacle of a somewhat dramaticized account of what happened the night the Titanic went down. As well, the fictional romance adds a heart-rending touch, involving one in the story of love and loss set in the grand old "gilded age" days we will never see again.
Now all we need is another movie about raising the Titanic. How about it, Mr. Cameron?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Lovedit
Review: The Titanic starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet with a running time of 194 minutes depicts the most monumental tragedy of the Edwardian era. Jack and Rose protray two mismatched lovers that break the rules according to class. There are several aspects that one can look at this movie: The cast of the show are diverse and some seem to believe that Jack was to young for Rose, however, I liked their chemistry on the screen. Secondly, the issues that were playing out in regards to the snobbery of the people that were on board especially when the collison occurred, and how there were many things go wrong resulting in a greater number of loss of life due to this aspect. Such as not filling the boats to their capacity because the people were selecting just the upper class, then Rose's mother even being so bold as to say that out loud saying that the boat should be seated according to class. The main idea of the boasting was that the ship absolutely could not sink. Then there was the speeding up of the boat just to show off by the one man that eventually jumped into the life boat ahead of women and children to be saved. There there was the tragedy itself of losing so many people in the water that night.

Now to pull all three of these aspects and have it play so smoothly, was wonderful. Having all that water to deal with was spectacular.

Of course, my own opinion was that the likeness to the Edwardian period was so perfect even down to the last detail. I really enjoyed that.

Lastly, to have such a long movie, it was separated porportionately as to keep the audience interested in the love story, the action, and the tragedy all at the same time, I do give it four stars. Well done.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Titanic
Review: The Titanic epic starts with two mini submarines on the ocean floor searching for a ghost ship that sunk 4/15/12. Once it's found, mini-camera's films: beautiful chandeliers, boots lying on the ship's floor, a pair of eye glasses, and a doll is found among other items. Eventually a treasure chest is found which leads to a 101 year old woman, who tells an interesting story.
Gloria Stuart (Rose DeWitt), was aboard the Titanic 84 years ago. Rose, a rich and beautiful woman, falls in love with Leonardo DiCaprio (Jack Dawson), a poor but attractive yound man. James Cameron (director), does a subperb job of plotting this amazing love story, no wonder the Titanic won 11 Academy Awards. Titanic cost $200 million to make but it grossed over $1 billion.
The love story includes the mystery of a blue diamond, 56 carat, heart shaped necklace, worth more than the "Hope Diamond". Rose had the necklace which was called "The Heart of the Ocean". What happened to it? You must watch Titanic to find out.
I rate this film a 5. James Cameron built an exact replica of the original Titanic using all the exquist iron laced work, priceless artwork, exact costumes of the 1912 era, and many other realistic details that helps to draw a person into the story making you feel as if you were on the Titanic at the time it hit the iceberg.
