Casual Blockbuster

Rating: 3/10 (6 September 1998)

This picture had been seen by a great number of people who hoped to see something they had never seen. They did... but not everything is so impressive in this picture.
A lot of money were spent on a great view of the ship and it's catastrophe, so we could see the best special effects ever made in cinematography. The great direction of James Cameron made us see how it all really happened. Horner's music was wonderful, it couldn't be better. The press of the picture was great. But real cinema lovers did not see the attributes that characterise the REAL movies.
The story is not too special and original, lots of romantic love stories were made before, some were more impressive and special than this. I know that we can't require the originallity from the story like this, based on a real facts. But I think the acting of Kate Winslet and especially Di Caprio and Billy Zane was very weak. The dialogues were very poor too, it were one of the worst dialogues I have ever heard.
There is no best movie of all time, but Titanic can't even pretend on it. You'll see, it will be forgotten soon and Di Caprio and Winslet will be a casual actors, but not an idols.
