The Best Take On The Titanic That The World Has Seen

Rating: 10/10 (14 February 2005)

The Titanic is an excellent movie set on the world's most famous ship. It is a movie that has helped shape the future of Hollywood's movie style - the movie that set the box office on fire, the greatest movie of our time.
Not only is the movie in itself great but there are many other redeeming qualities to it. For example; the lighting and color contrast it superb. (Just watch the scene when Kal (Billy Zane) presents the "heart of the Ocean" to Rose (Kate Winslet). The color in the room and the colors used on Kate's character are simply inspiring.
The story is another excellent quality of the Titanic. The way that James Cameron makes you feel watching it. You can lose yourself in Kate's character. She is being pushed into so many things, she is on the edge of giving up and at the last possible second Leonardo pops up and saves her. Its brilliant and not necessarily expected.
Finally, the Titanic has an awesome air of having fun and breaking free. This is especially shown in the third class party scene below the deck, when Kate dances with Leo. It is also shown in the scene right before the collision with the iceberg, when Kate tells Leo that "when the ship docks, I'm getting off with you".
So there you have it. An excellent movie I give a 10 out of 10. The lighting and color contrast are great, the story is excellent, and the air of fun is evident. Add in Billy Zane with eyeliner and the modern day heart throb Leonardo Dicaprio and what's not to love?
