worst movie ever made

Rating: 1/10 (26 November 1998)

I've seen some shockers in my time, but this excuse for a film takes the cake. I had some respect for Cameron and Winslet before this one, but all that was ruined by Titanic. Easily the Academy's biggest mistake of recent years, and certainly the aforementioned film stars. (I had little respect for DiCaprio, however, so he isn't tainted any more) Billy Zane must have been desperate, as even if he's not the best actor around, he's still a popular choice for me. A script that couldn't have been recycled into toilet paper, combined with bad acting and a bad story make Titanic a disaster, rather than a disaster movie. For a good romance, check The Princess Bride, and for disaster, see a good war movie - try Gallipoli.
