Wow...that's all I can say

Rating: 10/10 (24 December 2008)

Fantastic Picture! Several times throughout it I just could not believe the performances from Kate and Leo. Do not look at this movie merely as negative and depressing. To dismiss it as such would be to oversimplify to the Nth degree. What it is a brilliant work of art sculpted to perfection by everyone involved and I can not wait to watch it again. The raw emotions displayed in this movie just grip you from start to finish and you are engulfed by these people and their lives. When I heard about another pairing of Winslet and DiCaprio, I was wary to say the least. While I am a fan of both actors, I had grown up with the I Love Leo generation and did not think I could see past Titanic. Some might say that this is just Jack and Rose further down the line, but I respectfully disagree. You can tell that both of them have come so far in their careers and though I felt a little funny watching them together again, it quickly faded (even though Kathy Bates was in it too which I thought was funny). Please watch this movie with an open mind and heart and you will not be disappointed!
