I wanted the ship to sink within 20 minutes of the start of the film!

Rating: 5/10 (27 May 2001)

The tragedy here was the fact that they took what could have been a great film/story and turned it into a typical piece of Hollywood Crud! Seriously, the acting totally sucked! The screenplay was trite and boring. The contrived scenes with the old Rose (not to mention with all the other characters) were so sad, this piece of garbage could only come from small minds that merely used a bunch of special effects to mask the poorly written script! Sad, Sad, Sad......... I know that I'm certainly not in the majority on this one, obviously by the actual take on boxoffice and video rental/sales, but I know that I can tell good acting from affected, contrived, crud - and this certainly was full of the latter! Best Picture?!?!?!?! Honestly, the "Academy" bowed to box office sales and certainly not to their consciences on rewarding quality film making or acting.... Sad, Sad, Sad!!!!!
