TITANIC (PG-13)
Reviewed December 20, 1997 - Check out the Titanic web site.
At a production cost of $200 million, Titanic is to date the most expensive movie ever produced. At a three and a half hour runtime, it is also one of the longest. For all this money and for all this time, however, what Director James Cameron delivers is an amazingly powerful and compelling drama that, at least in my opinion, is worth every penny spent on it. As you'd expect from a Cameron production (Aliens, The Abyss, T2), Titanic is a technical wonder of a movie. The reproductions of the Titanic as sunk ship and as new ship are simply incredible, and the nearly "real-time" re-enactment of the Titanic's tragic final hour leaves an indelible impression. If this is what you're looking for in Titanic, run to the theaters now!
Disaster-movie fans be warned though, there's more to Titanic than the sinking of a very big ship. At heart this Titanic is really an epic love story, and in this again it's a very good one. The two main characters in the romance are Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet). Jack, the poor wandering American scraping his way through life, and Rose, the upper-class society girl who feels trapped in her existence--two people from different worlds brought together on history's grandest and most tragic ocean voyage. Is this simply Romeo and Juliet at sea? Maybe, but it works. Credit DiCaprio and Winslet for some great on-screen chemistry and individually charismatic performances, producing some of the most intimate and compelling moments in recent memory. Indeed, the powerful love story in the midst of impending tragedy helps Titanic resonate on many levels, not only bringing the events of April 14, 1912 to life, but personalizing it through the eyes, ears, and hearts of Jack and Rose. Titanic is a story of friendship, love, courage, and sacrifice...what more could you ask from a $200 million film?
With an effective supporting cast including Kathy Bates, Bill Paxton, Billy Zane, and Gloria Stuart (who is wonderful as the 101-year-old Rose), Titanic is definitely a film to see. Is this a technically stunning disaster film or an emotionally moving love story? Well, it's both!

ymugadza@hotmail.com gives this movie stars: "OK, I admit that I refused to watch the movie, up until now in 2001 because I was afraid I found myself in the similar situation between Rose and Jack, only that a distance separated us. I`m in Wisconsin, he`s in Africa. I loved the art, the chemistry, and the intelligent conversations. I couldn`t stop crying. And for the guys who hate it, I think I know why. You are afraid of love. Somebody in your life hurt you so bad that you couldn`t appreciate true love. Whether your mother, or your absent father or whoever. And your only conclusion was, "Love stinks". Your hatred for this film is obvious and shows everyone that you are either avoiding love because you think those in love are "weak" or you are simply afraid of it. Face it! You may blame the actors, I don`t care coz everyone has an ideal actor, but not the story itself. Anyway, its da bomb. " (8/12/01)

strawhorns@aol.com gives this movie stars: "May I start by saying how moved I was at the finished movie but I also would like to get a few things straight. all you very sad ladies out there who simply like Titanic because Leo is in it are very sad. More to the point you have no respect. the Titanic sank with over 1500 people and all you can do is drool over Leo. Show some respect please! Next, All you lot who critisise the films special effects, then James Cameron probably did his best. I think that for what he made of it, the effects were great. i'd like to see you idiots do better. O.K in my own opinion I find the film spectacular due to what Cameron is trying to put across. he wants the audience to see how a person felt when losing a loved one in the sinking. To close this amazing review. have some bloody respect and take a look at the true meaning of this movie. not leo and Kates love story but the actual catastrophe of all those people who perished in the disaster."

George gives this movie star: "everything sucks" (5/4/00)
David Rogers gives this movie stars: "Good, but boring. Leo was brought in for the women, and Kate's nude scene was brought in for the men (which I might add was just an excuse to make tthe film longer). I was not impressed by the nude scene. Women say there is too much nudity in other movies, so explain to me why they loved tis one. This showed more skin than they should allow in a PG-13! Forget the drama, it was the action that saved this film!" (4/27/00)

Mike Oxlong gives this movie star: "It was totally boring man. However Kate Winslet has NICE assets" (9/29/99)
Piccolo gives this movie stars: "Why, oh why, oh why? In a time where the public have realised that they require better/well plotted/scripted/acted films, you would think that the biggest budget movie would comply to some of these. Well, you would be wrong. If this was coming from the Emmerich/Devlin camp I would expect sh*t on a stick. But from James Cameron... someone I respected as a filmmaker. Damn it, I though Aliens was good, as well as Abyss, and as this was his pet project I expected him to drop his awful scriptwriting style and choice of actors. (Someone please b****slap Bill Paxton) I though this could be an amazing film. For example I am not Speilberg's biggest fan though he has made some incredible films.. (The early stuff mainly) and when I heard he was going to make 'Schindlers List' I was so excited because I knew he would be making it from the heart, and he exceeded ALL expectations I had. So in parralel I also expected a lot from Cameron... Man did he fail... BADLY, to meet any of my expectations. Here are all the flaws - The script is so bad.. So bad. (Who in that century flicked the bird?? NO ONE!) There were SO MANY bad mistakes Historically. (For example the first mate did NOT shoot anyone then commit suicide.. He got off and received commendations from the government for bravery. BTW: Cameron got sued for this) The effects were not that great.. I could see some bad animation expecially of the passengers on deck. The acting... BAD BAD BAD.. Leo will face God when he gets to heaven, and God will be waiting to kick his arse for his acting in this. The only redeeming people were David Warner, Kate Winslet (Hey, she's great) and the captain (All English.. Coincidence? I think not). Also did you notice how all villans/incompetant people were English (Except Billy Zane)- All Heros were Yankee (Except Billy Zane) and all victims were Irish? So did I. The only good thing was the sound mix (the 5.1 separations at the end was impressive to say the least), the costumes, the design and cinematography.. THAT IS IT! And no I don't not like it because of the romance.. (Hell I loved 'Always') It was just so badly done. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ... Let the Titanic remain sunk and DO NOT WATCH THIS." (9/19/99)
hardcorps@aol.com gives this movie stars: "Boring boring boring. And I didn't need to see Cameron drag. If you like this, you're not as tough as you think. Only The Haunting is worse. Your comments, ratings and hokey review confirm you are truly insane, Leo DiCaprio needs to do some more Coke. Get that stupid My Heart Will Go On Song outta my head!! On a closing note, if you enjoy Titanic, you are probably a dimwit." (9/4/99)
jessfrogy@prodigy.net gives this movie stars: "I thought the movie was great the story was exciting the special effects were cool and the ship was really neat. The only big problem was having leo play jack he is probally the worst actor around he performance was so fake the only reason they picked him was so tons of screaming teenage girls would go see it" (8/19/99)
shotgunshells@hotmail.com gives this movie stars: "People would give this movie 4 starts for the action and then 1 for the story, i didn't care at ALL for the story, just the action Notice only the BOYS hate this movie, and notice that mostly only the GIRLS like it. and also, all the BOYS seem to say, "Kate was OK"" (7/27/99)
Klobb gives this movie star: "I'm giving it 1 star 'cuz I can't give it 0 stars. I can't believe Titanic screwed up L.A. Confidental for this. Kate was alright, though. Di Caprio blows mutant goat, and so does that "My Heart Will Go On" song. Be warned: you'll have a heck of a hard time getting that stupid, idiotic, tasteless song out of your head." (6/24/99)
ShadowRaider_98@yahoo.com gives this movie star: "Over-hyped, sucks-all-a** movie, Di Caprio sucks all a** by himself, Kate is okay, and the "My Heart Will Go On" song is a blatant, stupid, tasteless joke (I'm really in pain!). If you paid to see this, the whole thing friggin' blows except for Kate's toots. That was beautiful." (6/24/99)

summerwyatt@yahoo.com gives this movie stars: "This was a very good film and was very pleased with the acting and the special effects. The hype was a little over done and I was very disapointed to see it win best picture when every other film was a step above 'Titanic'. If you want to see a 5 star film you could go see 'L.A. Confidential', which should have won the oscar. To all the people who gave it 1 star or thought it was boring, you are obviously not very bright. but to those of you who gave it 5 stars because you either thought that A)Leo is so cute or B)It was just so good!, you people are not as bright as the people that gave it 1 star. If you give this movie 5 stars maybe reviewing movies isnt your thing. Remember 5 stars means it is a classic like Godfather, Schindlers List and Pulp Fiction, and Titanic does not even compare to these and other greats." (3/14/99)
Creep gives this movie star: "Awfull! This movie needed major trimming and much better actors. James Cameron is a pretty lousy director all in all.(catch another one of his films "True Lies", not as horrible as this but still really bad) Leoanardo DeCaprio has very LITTLE talent. The only thing I've seen that he was ever good in was "What's Eating Gilbert Grape"( a much better film wit a great ending.) so I advise everyone to go see that instead of this rubbish" (3/10/99)
pollixxtroy@hotmail.com gives this movie stars: "All of you people who dislike this movie sure don't have much to say. Maybe you should watch this great film again before dismissing it as "sucky" or "boring." Disliking a film just because it is popular is wrong, that's why you are too." (3/8/99)
Angela Blesener gives this movie stars: "this movie was totaly awsome!!! It is one of my favorite movies of all times! It made me feel all the emotions that the people on the real titanic felt!

troynkat@peaknet.net gives this movie stars: "I just saw this film for $1.50 and that is all I would pay to watch 1300 people die in such gratuitous fashion. Cameron should have ripped off the "Poseidon Adventure" more than other films about the Titanic. Those of you that actually bought into the Romance are fuzzy headed morons! I am now an Ex-Cameron Fan. De Caprio was wasted on Jack's character - the only character who had potential for real developement. Few of you(the blithering "hand it five star morons") probably know what hardware and software were used to create the bloated FX." (8/1/98)
Aimee H. gives this movie stars: "This was a great movie!!! Leo is gorgeous!!!! Kate and Leo did a wonderful job!!!!

I love THE SONG THAT CELINE DION MADE IT IS A REALLY GOOD SONG. thank you for making that movie. It really makes you think of what could happen if you were on that ship. It's kind of scary. I don't think Cal shouldn't have been wearing a wig it wold have been really funny more people knew that he was bald. They shouldn't have put the part were the lady and her baby are laying in the ocean DEAD. I think Rose's "mother" just liked Cal because of his money and if Rose got married to Cal she would probably get JEWLS AND MONEY because Rose married a rich man. In the movie did Rose ever get married to any one?" (4/20/98)

I think Kate and Leo did an excellent job playing their parts.(everyone did). Now ever time I see a movie it seems like it stinks, cause Titanic is so good. It will be my favorite movie for along time. People who think utherwise should leave they're comments to themselves. This is not really giving Titanic enough credit it deserves but if I did it would take me all day!!!" (4/14/98)
Beth gives this movie stars: "Titanic is the best movie I have seen in a long time. I thought how they made the ship split in half was unbelievable.

jlfreed@philly.net gives this movie stars: "This movie was all crowd control and special effects. The dialogue was merely competent, the acting adequate, but the visuals, from the digital ocean to the reconstructed ship, were spectacular. It is worth the price of a ticket and the mildly sore seat you get after sitting for too long. But it wasn't the best movie of the year. Put As Good As It Gets in that spot, in my opinion." (4/6/98)

For this reason I was unable to let my 11-year old son see the movie. I was under the impression that any nudity got an R rating. However, I'm sure with an R rating, Titanic would not have been able to be so successful. I want to express again how disappointed I was in this!" (3/2/98)
dreeves@cpis.net gives this movie stars: "This film was a masterpiece of beautiful sets and cinematography, as well as repleat with action sequences and an engrossing storyline. The performance by Kate Winslet was fantastic and Leonardo DiCaprio did almost as well. However, I found the flash-back, flash-forward sequences distracting, and at times downright annoying. And while the soundtrack was very emotional, it is largely reminiscent of Braveheart. Nonetheless, it deserves all the kudos it's been getting. A fantastic film." (3/1/98)
DJ gives this movie stars: "Come on you guys! Give it that last half star! We all know Titanic is the world's best movie. And to those who haven't seen it, for some unknown reason, might like to know that it is now officially the second highest grossing movie of all time, thank you very much!" (2/23/98) (The last half star, eh? S-o-o-o tempting. We've thought about it...we'll think about it some more...thanks! -- fuzzydog)

cus55@yahoo.com gives this movie stars: "In one of the best movies of the past year, James Cameron has put together one of his finest film productions to date. While the effects were dazzling, what made Titanic more exciting was the chemistry between DiCaprio and Winslet. The first half of the movie (the *romance* side), in my opinion, surpassed the second half (the *action* side). I usually hate Billy Zane with a passion, but he was perfect for the role of the sleezy fiance. The visuals of the real Titanic set the movie up as interesting, decent viewing, while the ending brought a tear to my eye. A wonderful film. Oh, I forgot to mention how brilliant the score was. The music deserves every Music-in-Film award there is." (2/7/98)
dollfrmcal@aol.com gives this movie stars: "Probably one of the most magnificient, touching films I have ever seen. All the characters brought a sense of magic into the making of the film. James Cameron did an excellent job recreating the Titanic to the best of his ability. Who cares if it was $200 million to make! They arlready made their profit, didn't they!?" (2/2/98)

shelley524@hotmail.com gives this movie stars: "Hmmm...i thought this movie was probably the best this yr, but it's missing something to be an all-time classic. I luved da soundtrack and the plot, da special effects were great, too. Here's to all females, didn't Leo just looked so hot in dat tex or what?!?!?!?!?! I almost fainted. Hey, can anyone help me figure out what could have made it an all-time best, classic kinda movie??? Thanx!" (1/25/98)

kailer@aol.com gives this movie stars: "This movie is greatly overrated. No artistical value whatsoever. Alteration of history. Cheesy diologue and a dull story. The best thing in this movie is special effects and music." (1/20/98)
trek@sover.net gives this movie stars: "Best movie I ever saw!!!!" (1/13/98)
fbedora@hotmail.com gives this movie stars: "This movie is very well-rounded. Everything in this movie from special effects to the powerful love story make Titanic an instant classic. The three hours and fourteen minute length of this movie flies by so quickly because Titanic literally "engulfs" you. You feel like you are actually back in 1912, with a first-person point of view of the ship. And by the way, Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio fill the parts of Rose and Jack incredibly. This shows what you can do with $200 million. Every cent well spent. Thank you James Cameron!!!" (1/11/98)
kimberlysaw@msn.com gives this movie stars: "The movie Titanic was the best movie i have ever seen in my life. Leo is the main thing in the movie HHHHHE ISSS FIIIINNNE . But i cried half the movie. It was very sad. He really did a good job in the acting parts. Good DRAWINGS !!! I LOVE YOU LEO !!" (1/10/98)
elliott@hws.edu gives this movie stars: "I never thought that I would enjoy this movie as much as I did. However, it proved to be one of the best movies I have ever seen, ranking up there with Top Gun, Jerry Maguire, and SlapShot! Great flick that I am sure I will see over and over again!" (1/8/98)
gordfam@aol.com gives this movie stars: "The special effects are great! It pays off for being the most expensive movie ever made. This was da bomb. It was a really great movie. It's a really great story with a bittersweet ending. The ship was spectacular. Leonardo DeCaprio was the best! I think the makers could have shortend it a little bit by having less running from room to room while the Titanic was sinking. I know that was probelly the way it really was then. The length was perfect in my opinion. Leonardo DeCaprio and Kate Winslett worked great together.He is SUCH a hunk. If you know him tell him so, O.K?" (1/5/98)
whero@aol.com gives this movie stars: "I have always had an interest in the Titanic, and that's why I wanted to see the film. In fact, I was disappointed to learn that Hollywood added a love story to it, which I assumed would be a sappy affair. On the contrary! It is fabulous! I enjoy watching movies about people like Rose breaking free and doing what their hearts tell them to. I love this movie so much I went back to see it again! It is beautiful and I can't stop thinking about it." (1/3/98)
