Summary: One of the BEST Romance movies ever!!! Thumbs UP!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet, Billy Zane and Victor Garber star in the theatrical hit of 1997: TITANIC. Leonardo DiCaprio was terrific as Jack Dawson. Kate Winslet was so-so in this movie. Billy Zane ( Cleopatra, The Phantom and Pocahontas II) gave a slamming punch-in-the-face performance as the gentlemanly jealous Cal Hockley. Should have won 2 MORE Academy Awards: Best Actor (Dicaprio) and Best Supporting Actor (Zane). I LOVE the song My Heart Will Go On; it makes me cry because it means something personal to me. Why wasn't the song In My Arms Again by Michael W. Smith used in the movie? GREAT picture.

Summary: What a crashing BORE of a movie
Review: Now honestly, take out the admittedly superb special effects and what have you left? Story - predictable. Plot twists - where? Dialogue - remarkably ordinary. Character development - none. Acting - just adequate but the actors had very little to do anyway. Movie length - too long. Sequel - let's hope not! Were it not for the SFX and possibly Mr DiCaprio's persona, this film would have sunk faster than its namesake with nought but murmours of "There goes another Titanic movie." Okay, I'll give it an extra point for the photography. Was there a soundtrack? It must have been pretty forgettable. Give us a break, there is so little substance to this movie it's not funny.

Summary: grammatical errors...
Review: There was a letter written a while back claiming that all the negative reviews were characterized by "stupidity" and that some of them even had "misspelled words." Well, first of all, this is a flawed judgment. Societies and people who find so much to love in a movie like Titanic, cannot place much importance on little things like literacy. J.G. Ballard's predicted "end of the written word," seems to have reached its peak in this collosal visual monstrosity. But with that said, I think after reading several reviews that the higher rate of illiteracy belongs to the 5-star camp. Here are just a few gems:"A great but dipressing movie" (The distance of the I from the E on the keyboard precludes a typographical error.) "But it certainly deserves the Best pitcher..." (no comment)

Summary: This MOVie is TOTALLy Overrated...
Review: why does everybody think this movie is such a good movie? I think this is totally overrated... i'll skip the plot and all those since evERYbody seems to know that much. In a nutshell, i quite like the movie, EXCEPT the main characters and the plot, AND the music which counts a lot in a movie, i guess. FOr heaven's sake, best love story? Unrealistic, Too MElodRamatic, what kind of messed up story is that? i think they've gone too far with supposed "love story" which really happened in the ship. Characters? Let's be honest.. Leonardo DicapriO? ......sorry but he cAn't AcT. music? too repetitive... gees... i even have the music score..they SOUND all the same..... weLL and...ppl this is just my opinion...

Summary: Still the best film of all time.....
Review: What I can't understand is why so many people had to diss TITANIC. I mean, sure, it was a love story (but don't all Hollywood films have some kind of romance in them - even when it's a horror or an action movie?) and TITANIC is definitely one of the best love stories ever told through a Hollywood film. First of all, I don't understand what was so wrong with Leonardo DiCaprio's acting in this film as he portrayed the character of Jack Dawson; I personally thought he was excellent in the film and TITANIC was one of his best and smartest moves in his entire acting career. Kate Winslet was also at her best as she portrayed the character of the young Rose DuWitt Bukater, Jack's love interest. The best thing about her is that Kate is British, just like Rose was, so she had the perfect British accent and talent for the character of Rose. Billy Zane was also excellent as Cal. Francis Fisher, Kathy Bates, Victor Gerber, Gloria Stuart, and Bill Paxton were also amazingly talented. James Cameron once again proved to be one of the greatest directors of all time, and everybody thought that this film would sink in the box office just like the ship itself did in the ocean...but the world was dead wrong! TITANIC became the biggest gross-selling movie of all time - it even beat George Lucas's STAR WARS, as the top movie of all time. Not only was the acting First Class, but the special effects and James Horner's score were fabulous, which brought helped to bring the past back to life. And James Cameron also did an amazing job bringing accurate historical events into the film. All in all, TITANIC is definitely the best movie of all. I really enjoyed it when I saw it in the theater (and I even own the video, although I haven't watched it in a while) and I still love it. The movie is just amazing (there is no other way to describe it) and it definitely deserved all the Oscars and Golden Globes it won. The film is the most moving, heartwarming and heartwrenching movie I've ever seen and the epic tale of the film is unforgettable. Bottom line: Now doesn't EVERYONE wish they had a loyal love like Jack and Rose's?!

Summary: Titanic
Review: I just can't understand how some people can be so dumb, blind, and heartless to mock a movie of this carisma. What's wrong with these people? The film "Titanic" is a true director's success. I admire James Cameron for his commitment to bringing to life the tragic story of the RMS Titanic. He has introduced the true feeling of the time to millions of people all over the world. And now, thanks to Cameron, the legend of the Titanic has never been more strongly felt than with the release of this film. This film deserved every Oscar it received, especially Best Picture. I think "Titanic" and "Gone With The Wind" make a great couple.

Summary: She sank. Get over it!
Review: First I'd like to say that I have read many books about the Titanic and watched every movie on this subject (except Raise the Titanic, that one was a real dog). James Cameron ranks high on my list of favorite directors, so I thought I'd watch this one, too. Wrong! At the beginning of the film, when the old Rose started telling her story, I thought that was a great way to start. But what came then were the three most boring hours I've ever sat through in a theater (what happened to intermissions, anyway?) preceding thirty minutes of spectacular scenes. The actual sinking and minute detail of the ship get three stars. Speaking of Stars, what's all the hype about Di Caprio? He has the charisma and eroticism of a plucked chicken. At least the hype about the movie was carefully engineered.

Summary: what a shame!
Review: This movie is all sex. After seeing Leo Dicaprio's version of "Romeo and Juliet" I decided to watch Titanic. First, this movie was waaayyy too long it got boring and dragged. The only part that was good was when the boat started to sink because thats where the action was. Second,there is too much sex in this movie..which should be rated R instead of PG13. I brought my 11 year old cousin to watch with me, thinking that it was going to be decent enough..well i was wrong. Rose and Jack meet each other for a day and all of a sudden the next day they instantly fall in love and have sex...and more sex..and more sex...and more sexx. So much sex in movies nowadays, and Titanic just adds to the list. They had sex more than one scene throughout this movie.I was so embarassed to bring my 11yr old cousin with me.Well after watching LeoDicap in "Romeo and Juliet" Titanic is exactly like this. After watching various versions of Romeo/juliet movies, I wanted to leave..there is no originality in this movie, in fact I think its even stupider than any Romeo and Juliet movies. The only thing why I think people came to see this movie is because it had the ship "Titanic" in it or leo. Yes the costumes were great and the acting and scenery/effects were ok too, but it was the plot, the story, the bad script. And what the heck kind of dialogue is "Never let go.." creative dialogue? HA! This isnt what I call a true romance movie..A true romance movie wouldnt need so much sex in it like Gone with the Wind-not a single sex scene and just MORE THAN ROMANCE with a man, but hardship of war and a woman trying to survive, and the dialogue is something out of a novel..very beautiful/poetic. I also recommend you watching "Untamed Heart" (original characters, creative plot, SOMETHING DIFFERENT, NOT AN ORDINARY ROMANCE MOVIE) or check out "You've got Mail" a romance movie that doesnt drag, isnt long, nor not just an instant I love you movie..the characters fall inlove, they didnt "instantly" want each other/something creative. Titanic is a wannabe Romeo/Juliet movie that is only good once, a second time just drags.This movie isnt something you want to treasure. Not to mention they left out some real-life passengers in this movie that was important to Titanic. This movie is mostly fiction, dont count on any part of it being true..except that the ship sank.

Summary: James Cameron's Magnum Opus
Review: When Titanic was released in December of 1997, most people predicted the film would sink like its real life namesake. ... People went to see the movie, not once or twice or even three times, but a half a dozen or more. Theaters were packed to the gills on all screening and the movie ceased being just a movie and became a phenomenon. Titanic mania was everywhere, from books to the soundtrack which spent an amazing 18 weeks at number and you couldn't turn on a radio and not hear Celine Dion's omnipresent "My Heart Will Go On". Leonardo DiCaprio became a teen idol and Kate Winslet became a star. Oh yeah, James Cameron made pretty enjoyable and good film. Known for his use of special effects, Titanic boasts some stunning visuals. The detailed recreation of the doomed ship is stunning. The sinking of the ship is terrifying and breathtaking. Amid all these effects is a classic Hollywood love story. Mr. DiCaprio's Jack is a rogue who wins his way into the third class steerage section in a card game while Ms. Winslet's Rose is from a family of means and travels in the first class section with her money hungry mother (played by Francis Fisher) and her loathsome fiancée Cal (played with an evil sneer by Billy Zane). Jack and Rose meet on deck and quickly fall in love. They are meant for another, but their love is doomed from the start. The tragic ending to their relationship will leave you misty-eyed. While the movie definitely pulls on your heartstrings, the two leads are so believable and charming you can't help but be drawn in. Titanic went on to become the highest grossing movie in history and tied Ben-Hur with a record 11 Academy Awards.

Summary: DVD REVIEW
Review: What??? This is the highest grossing movie of all time and has an extra-free DVD, only the trailer. I don't know what these studio guys are thinking, they even dare to call it "Collector's Edition". The image and sound are great. In my opinion this is not the greatest movie ever done, but it ain't the worst either.
