Titanic

Pros: engrossing; Winslet; special effects
Cons: by-numbers-romance; slogging through water

The extraordinary success of Titanic has spawned no end of naysayers. It's tawdry. It's melodramatic. It's overhyped. I agree. It's all of that and more. Titanic is an amazing achievement.

There is something about the film that draws...

Pros: Awesome special effects, some moving scenes
Cons: Contrived love story , a bit too long

Since childhood I have been fascinated with the story of the "Titanic", that "unsinkable" ship that went down after she struck an iceberg, sending over 1,500 human beings to a watery, freezing grave. I don't know the reason for this...

Pros: Fine script, direction, acting and super special effects
Cons: spitting scene and the use of the "bird".

At least this great ship never disappeared in the minds of the world. The Titanic is always being raised in movies, books, film documentaries, etc. For good reason. It is simply one of the most fascinating stories that history has. And the most...

Pros: special effects, sets, cinematography
Cons: script, characters, story

"Titanic" has the highest box office gross of all time: over one billion dollars. It is also the most expensive film ever made, at two hundred million dollars. And it was one of the most successful films ever at the Academy Awards, winning...

Pros: beautiful costumes and recreated rooms
Cons: numerous, see opinion

This may upset a lot of folks, but I have to put my 2 cents worth in on this movie.

Number one, I do not often feel compelled to view a movie for full price on the big screen. However, I did endure this one at the theatre.

The...

Pros: Terrific, well-crafted story, awesome acting
Cons: none

I waited a year to see Titanic, when it finally came out on video. I had been pregnant while it was in the theaters and was warned by friends it was too emotional for me to see at the time.

I was not disappointed at all. This film was so...

Pros: Great score, wonderful special effects
Cons: Bad, lackluster acting that depends on your sympathy.

Warning...before you proceed, know that bad things will be said about this movie and the cast in general. If you are a 13-year-old girl you may want to stop reading now as I do not wish to disturb in any way the dream that Leonardo Di Caprio may some day...

Pros: Great Story, Awesome Ship!!
Cons: Flashback that was not plain and simple!

Will Directors ever get realistic in making movies that revolve around flashbacks? By realistic flashbacks, I mean that when an actor/actress narrates a story of the past relating to his/her life, how would she/he know what happened in...

Pros: Beautiful music, visual effects are spectacular
Cons: Movie is lengthy

What a tragic love story between Jack and Rose. This movie is one of the most spectacular movies I have seen. Terrific music, wonderful effects, this movie is filled with plenty of tears and a few laughs too.

This movie shows the division...

Pros: Great special effects!
Cons: Weak love story.

"Titanic" is a competently produced and directed film about one of the most romantic and mystic disasters of the twentieth century. I've always argued that I hope no one ever makes a picture about Titanic, because one day I will. But now I won't have to,...

Pros: Leo dies.
Cons: Leo's alive for something like 2 hours and 45 minutes. Movie drags along like Calculus class.

Whew...what a load a garbage. The only good things to come out of this were all the parodies. (My friend's band did a rock version of the Celine Dion atonality, and Ben Stiller trying to sell James Cameron on "Titanic II" comen to mind.)
...

Pros: Good effects, Ok sound track
Cons: Plot, dialogs, acting. Need I say more?

If there were no teenaged girls on this planet, Titanic would have been the greatest loss making movie of all times. Guaranteed. Of course, being 19 years old, my life would have turned into hell had there been no teenaged girls, but well, thats another...

Pros: Drama, Romance, the tiny comedy
Cons: Length

Someone try and tell me they have not seen it at least once. I know girls who saw it many, many times. I think that it was a great movie with all types of things. Some comedy, drama, sorrow, and even one of those snobby villians who everyone hates.
...

Pros: the sinking looked very realistic, it captures the fear that surrounded the disaster
Cons: the love story is way to korny, Leonardo di Caprio

Thousands of screaming voices. Can you hear them? Thousands of floating corpses. Can you see them? Thousands of shattered dreams. Can you feel them?


A mighty mass of steel is battling with the waves, advancing into the horizon,...

Pros: the whole movie
Cons: it was a little on the long side

Due to a horrendous personal experience (no I was not on a boat that sank or anything) I was of the opinion that "The ship sank, people died, it is in the past, get over it". So I very well may be one of the last people to see Titanic.
