Summary: Unfortunate backlash against a good movie
Review: Seems everyone has nothing but negativity to share about Titanic these days... but I have to ask myself, why? The script and storyline are solid, Winslet brings a memorable, saucy verve to her character while DiCaprio's relaxed romanticism set millions of hearts aflutter worldwide. The score is moving and inspired, and the special effects are second-to-none. Costuming, editing, photography... all aspects are solid. So why has Titanic become such a target of late? My guess would be that it's simply backlash... people got tired of hearing about it, and animosity always follows outrageous success. If you haven't seen Titanic, this is simply a fantastic movie... don't believe the backlash.

Summary: ?
Review: I will admit that the sinking ship special effects were nice, but other than that, this movie wasn't even worth watching. The movie was long and drawn out with a shallow plot. This was more of a special effects showcase than an epic love story. How in the world did this get nominated for an Academy Award, much less win. And my final discrepancy about the movie was its acting. Poor, bad, boring, inadequate, terrible, unintellectual, anile, and just plain stupid acting made this movie even worse.

Summary: Pity
Review: Yeah, pity for the amount of money wasted on the production of this movie in which the affairs have got nothing to do with the sinking of the ship. Amazing to see the mass interest that caused this movie to remain on display for several weeks , even months. An example of a stupid love story does not look any better on TITANIC and by no means is ''historical''event whilst other thousands of passenger whose stories are not mentioned in the movie find their death in the bottom. Movie -makers, please spend money on more exciting things - no doubt you will get more admiration- I assure, more that what you get at this story.

Summary: Hit Fast-Forward!
Review: Can somebody please tell me why this film did so well at the box office/oscars? At least two thirds of it is complete garbage! This film relies heavily on its high production value and special effects. The characters and sub-plot are two dimensional and cliched, the script is unimaginitive- basically the first two hours of the film are a complete waste of time. However, if you fast forward to the end (a rather foregone conclusion anyway) the sinking of the ship is impressively done, albeit historically inaccurate. Basically, don't even think of buying this film, watch it only once-for the special effects.

Summary: Not Worth the Hype
Review: I fail to see the hype generated by this film. If you want to see a story of the Titanic, see the one with Clifton Webb and Barbara Stanwyck. The visual effects may not be there, but the story is much better.

Summary: EVIL IN A MOVIE FORM
Review: Not only is this film an insult to those that survived the TITANIC diasaster, but the film itself is a tradgedy to mankind. The least they could do is make it slightly realistic (the most intelligent line in the whole film must be "we have to stay on the ship as long as possible!"...obviously they didn't notice the ship was sinking) The plot is essentially this; Romeo and Juliet on a boat. Rich girl meets young, poor guy. They fall in love, have an affair (behind the back of her fiancee), ship sinks (to the surprise of many!) and Leonardo Dicaprio becomes Leonardo Dicap-sicle. Trust someone who is a major film buff; THIS FILM IS NOT A CLASSIC.

Summary: GONE WITH THE....OCEAN
Review: OK I AM NOT A LEONARDO FAN ; NOT AT ALL ... SO I AM NOT WRITING TO SAY HOW WONDERFULL HE WAS IN THE MOVIE ; THE BESTS IN THIS MOVIE WERE BILLY ZANE & KATE WINSLET (FINALY A REAL WOMAN NOT A TOOTH PICK ACTRESS ON THE SCREEN ! ) AS FOR DI CAPRIO ... THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER ACTORS I WOULD HAVE SEEN IN THIS ROLE... THE STORY IS BEAUTIFUL ; "EAU DE ROSE" BUT WELL DONE ; NOT AS GOOD AS "GONE WITH THE WIND" BUT IN BETWEEN THESE TWO MOVIES I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING LIKE THIS.

Summary: Amazing Film!
Review: Too many people have been caught up in the media groundswell of this film and fail to simply watch the film. These people are the ones forming opinions not of the film, but of their idea of what the film is. The film is a glorious accomplishment, and those with short memories forget that prior to it's December '97 release, Titanic had been dubbed a box office disaster. The box office records the film went on to break don't make it a great film. The story, direction, acting, and amazing efects make it so. And this is where so many get lost. The film is still the film. The film is not about Leo (a fine actor in his own right), or it's nearly 2 billion dollar global box office take. James Cameron had no idea this film would create such an international stir (there are nearly 1,000 reviews alone posted here!). This film was not made to be the biggest blockbuster of all time, it just happened. The film inspired many. So go watch the movie. The movie will last forever. The rest is merely a passing sideshow . . .

Summary: Titanic is the only movie that have moved me to tears
Review: A true masterpiece. I'm a big fan of James Camerons work with The Abyss - special edition being my favourite. I love Aliens, T1, T2 and even True Lies. Titanic is among camerons best. Awesome!
