Rating: 4 stars
Summary: well done
Review: This movie is not only historically accurate, but it is well done. The only flaw is that cameron should have made more of the historical part and lest out some the romance. There was too much out that romance stuff.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Why?
Review: This is the only question I can ask about this film. Why was it so popular, why did it win so many awards and why are so many people in love with it?

This film won best picture, beating out the true best film of '97, LA Confidential. That movie had one of the most interesting stories, and some of the best dialogue a Hollywood movie has had in ages. The story of the Titanic is well known, and has been done to death in the past. The dialogue for Titanic is horrid, it was overly long by about an hour. What you're left with is the special EFX, which in all honesty aren't that great.

I honestly can't see the film's appeal. Maybe it's because I'm not a romantic, but this film did absolutely nothing for me. Not even Kate Winslet's bare bossoms could save it.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Good film but some extras would be nice.
Review: when you consider the price of the Titanic DVD,I would have thought some extras(documentaries,interviews)could have been added.For me,the most chilling scene in the movie was seeing that epic wide screen shot of all those people drowning in the water.It has outstanding special effects and seeing the real Titanic at the bottom of the sea was a bonus.I hope that when the special edition comes out,those extras will be provided.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It never lets go Jack, It never lets go......
Review: Titanic is a grand cinematic achievement that does not fail to release its hold on you, no matter how many times you view it! From the first ghostly images of the wreck as the emerge from the gloom, to Rose's final reunion with Jack, this is a film that takes you on a grand adventure for three hours. Granted many of the visuals lose their impact on the smaller screen, (The sweeping camera shot of Titanic underway after Jack's "King of the World!" scene, the engine room scenes, to name a couple), but there are still many others to tug at your emotions, especially the "Nearer My God to Thee" montage, and Rose's realization that Jack has been claimed by the cruel sea, sacrificing himself so that she might go on. Both these scenes still have the power to bring tears to my eyes, and I've seen the film 7 times at present count! Leonardo DeCaprio is perfect in the role of Jack Dawson, the vagabond artist who meets Debutante Rose Dewitt Bukater and opens her eyes to the world beyond her stuffy social circle. Their budding love makes Jack's death all the more tragic, as you find yourself hoping that somehow they'll overcome all and be able to live happily ever after. James Cameron does an excellent job in making the pair representative of all the real "Happily Ever Afters" that were not to be after that tragic night in 1912. This film can rightfully be called his masterpiece and all else he does will pale in comparison to it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Do Not See This Movie
Review: that is all I can say except that the acting was atrocious. you have been warned.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A ship of dreams, a sub-par DVD.
Review: Here it is, the most popular movie ever made (besides Star Wars), it almost seems intimidating to write a review on it. Many people dislike this movie for 2 reasons:

1.) It's overwealming popularity: this movie can turn many low budget movie fans off. Plus, a lot of younger men don't really like Leonardo DiCaprio. People are getting sick of hearing about it.

2.) It's Script: The dialogue in this movie is it's one major week point. The dialogue seems flat and cliched. This is the one thing critics complained about.

Despite those flaws, this is a very well done and powerful movie. The love story in the first half of the movie drags on, but this is an attempt by the filmmakers to get you to like the characters and relate to them. This movie screams production value. Absolutely beautiful sets, beautiful 90% scale ship, powerful moments, images, editing, and an excellent score by James Horner far outweigh the minor gripes some people have about this movie. Highly Reccomended.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Delusional Camron
Review: Its pretty obvious with all due rispect to mainstream hollywood that Titanic is not only a superficial film, but from an ethical view, pointless. Igmar bergmen to give but an example, made the Seventh Seal with a budget of about $55000 and accomplished something that camron could only wish for. Just goes to show how far hollywood can go just to turn in a buck...pathetic.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Flippin' Brilliant.
Review: Believe me when I say Titanic is the best film ever made, I'm not lying. The special effects are masterful, the cinematography is beautiful, the screenplay is more than words, the sound is brilliant, the direction is excellent and the acting is A++ rated.

Jack Dawson (Leo DiCaprio) is a poor guy who has just won a ticket to go on the maiden voyage of the R.M.S Titanic. When he hops on, Rose DeWitt Beckhater (Kate Winslet) becomes his new love, and while trying to get away from the fiancee to be, Cal Hokley (Billy Zane), they must also escape the ship or they are history!

This film is romantic, dramatic, action packed and thrilling. I've said it once and I'll say it again, Titanic is the best film of all time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Titanic
Review: The best movie ever made. James Cameron made a masterpiece out of a movie with a cast of relatively unknowns. The story line is great - a love story in the middle of a historical tragedy. The heart goes through alot when you see this movie - much more than with any other. These feelings stay with you for many days after viewing it.
