Summary: The Best Ever
Review: This is the greatest movie ever made and I pity you bashers, cause you must be miserable people. I guess its difficult for all of you to live in a world where it is the top grossing movie, but I guess you'll manage. If not, too bad!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Great Movie - Shame about the transfer
Review: The movie Titanic is one of those great movies of all time. I have a huge gripe with the quality of the DVD. It is worse than VHS! The resolution lines are clearly visible, and even though it is not anamorphic, it should have been way better than this.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Lame story, chilling technical effects
Review: Poor Kate Winslet, she has her work cut out for her with this hokum script and pretty-boy Leonard working against her. Most of the performers are rather good in supporting roles, and Billy Zane gives his rotten lines a good go. The British supporting cast is, as usual, excellent. See it for the meticulously researched technical effects. As for that sound track, well...it's at its best when it pounds away during those action scenes, but I wouldn't blame anyone for trashing that tacky 70's soft-rock love theme when a more contemporaneous theme was sorely needed. I object to the fact that some 15 minutes of real-life scenes about the actual tragedy were cut from the release in order to track the dubious love story. All other aspects of the movie are so great, it really cries out for a decent script and a better musical theme.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: James Cameron has created a CLASSIC.
Review: TITANIC is defanly one of the greatest box office academy award winners of all time, And i have referenced this film under as a CLASSIC/ROMANTIC/ DISASTER. James Cameron has really brought the breathtaking story to life, and the Titanic sinking looked very real, and very graphic and Suspensful. This a film for fans of romantic movies,James Cameron movies and Leonardo DiCaprio fans. Leonardo stars as a 3rd class young artist on the Titanic, falls in love with a rich girl, whoses being forced to marry a bad hearted rich man's son, where the disaster pulls them toghere to collide with destiny. Leonardo and Kate Winslet really brought the film's characters Jack Dawson and Rose Dewitt Bukater brilliantly to life. I thought James Cameron (Aliens) did really award winning well at making this film, giving sci-fi and action a rest. So if you see this film, don't forget grab the tissues.

(I give Titanic 10/10, because James Cameron has created a very stunning award winner, and the special effects and acting were really good)

Summary: I love it.
Review: This is the most wonderful, breathtaking, romantic, amazing, sad movie i have ever seen in My entire existence. The burning passion between Jack and Rose, The horrible reality that haunts you the entire movie: the ship is going to sink. It's amazing how anyone could not like this breathtaking tribute to the doomed ocean liner and the thousands of people who went down with it. And, In the final hour of it, you begin not only crying over jack and rose, but all the others as well. The first and second class people who were refused passage off the ship just because of social standing, The Brave and truly noble men who went down with the ship, and the lucky few survivors, who had to leave loved ones on board. I never thought a movie could touch me like this, but it did. and after the lights go back on and your leaving yhe theater, it doesn't matter, if you are thing about how jack and rose were really kate and leo, They just represent the real people on that ship, many of which were like them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Cameron's Art Du Juor - A Masterpiece!
Review: The Venerable James Cameron's epic tale of love in the direst of circumstances proves one essential thing: great moviemaking is not lost in American Cinema. Winslet, the prodigy stirred by Emma Thompson's consummate tutelage, is more breathtaking than the revelry of Cameron's fascination with the enormous SFX. Many have derided the film as not "realistic", but fail to mention the film was a love story against the backdrop of a tragic antiquity. In fact, shades of epicurean brilliance lance the film throughout--with Winslet as the centerpiece. Kate's nude scene was perhaps the most artistically driven, rather than purient, in cinematic history. Backed by James Horner's mystical (Irish here and so was the operatic music he composed and the delectable Celine fable) music create an emporium of tooled majesty and passionate desires while capturing the very heart of love: Innocence. 11 Academy Awards should prove Cameron is supreme to most and a $1.5 billion box office proves class is immeasurable even in Hollywood. Of course, Cameron did violate some Victorian prominences by being too "modern". I really could have done without the SFX at the beginning since the torrent of emotion between DiCaprio and Winslet was as masterful as it gets. Otherwise, the film, without their love, would have been another "waterworld" with a $230 million pricetag. Billy Zane, always in his vicious element, was also consummate. My hat is tipped, much like Winslet's, to Cameron for having the austere courage to forego his salary to finish a film that will be loved or hated...but admired, publicy and privately by all that saw it. The love scene, again shades of magic, was just Amore. If I was Cameron, I would try to cull some long forgotten novel from antiquity and try diligently to follow-up this masterpiece. ...with Horner as Maestro, a Celine performance, and an effulgent love story that would bring more Art to an Industry in desprate need of it. "...Cameron, I think you can rest your melancholy and be at peace with this masterpiece." Felecia Constance Rowe, Teardrop Films, Executive Producer. P.S. - David Warner, a crafty character, was a leading star in a Titanic movie filmed long ago. Just a little history. Did anyone notice? I did!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: NEED MORE TITANIC
Review: The movie has good scenes but the least they could do is make a movie today strictly about Titanic only.I was mad when the story was mostly about love but the titanic scenes like the sinking was very good.I suggest A Night To Remember it is black and white but is good and it is all Titanic.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Titanic:Box Office Success
Review: Titanic is the film that broke all film records.And it deserved.Titanic is the kind of film that keeps you interested and get in touch with characters. Personally i believe that this is the best film made and deserves alot of credit and deserved all the oscars it recieved,however i do believe that Kate Winslet should have won the oscar for best actress. Anyother film will never reach Titanics succeess,it reached and touched the heart of millions and millions of people across the globe. Even if you are not a huge fan of Leonardo DiCaprio,this film should not be missed and a copy should be in every household in the world

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not what is expected...
Review: Titanic is a flawed picture, with beautiful costuming, scenery, and special effects. However, the script is absolutely dreadful and contrived. James Cameron's ego must be huge if he thinks that he is a writer.

The saving grace of this film is the pre-Raphelite Kate Winslet, who totally out-classes her co-star Leo Di Caprio. Unfortunately, even she sounds stunted speaking in an American accent. The supporting roles are good, but are one-dimensional, appearing as caricatures that do nothing but confound our heroes (Rose & Jack).

The soundtrack is far better than the film. I bought it months before seeing the movie, and was very disappointed. I had imagined a better film to go with Horner's wistful Irish laments.

If you are a rabid-Winslet fan(like myself) or just like epic/disaster flicks, then Titanic is a must-see. Otherwise, rent Jude or Total Eclipse to see better performances by Kate & Leo.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: CLASSIC WITH A CAPITAL C
Review: I think the people who wrote negative comments about this film have no taste whatsoever. So they curse alot during the movie, WHO CARES? They were on a sinking ship with not enough lifeboats for even half of them. WHAT'D YOU EXPECT? Pretend you were Jack and/or Rose. Imagine how they felt. You have to pay attention to the plot and what's going on, cause this movie hits you on the emotional level if you do. It won 11 Acadimy Awards for best sound, best song, best special effects, and BEST PICTURE. When i went to see it with my old man in January 98, he said he loved it and said it was "the best movie ever made". I swear, thats what he said. So try to have some respect for it. Or better yet, buy the Screenplay here in Amazon, and you'll understand why they did what they did.
