Good movie, but full of itself. "Does the boat sink?"

Rating: 7/10 (17 February 2000)

This was a great film in most respects, but I didn't like the choice of lead actor. They could have found ANYONE more masculine than DiCaprio to play the supposedly rugged, virile All-American boy. Some of the lines are just plain bad. "I'm the king of the world!"
The special effects are indeed spectacular, but I found myself growing bored waiting for the iceberg to come. I have to admit that the fantastic sinking sequence is a good reward for being dragged to see the movie by your date and sitting through hours of love story.
7 out of 10, just because I don't like DiCaprio
