Feared the worst, seen the best.

Rating: 10/10 (23 November 1998)

This movie could have become a real disaster. A love story between a rich girl and a poor boy - seen it a thousand times, and it always had a happy end. Not so in Cameron's film! The Titanic hits the iceberg - it could have been like watching a 50's sci-fi today. Again Cameron's Digital Domain (with Hollywoods most famous special-effects-factories on their side) created one of the most spectacular movies ever. Some movies get all these things right but still do a very messy job - eg. use plates with a "made in Hong Kong" sign on them. However, Cameron paid attention to the details. All in all, the actors were really good (and not only Leo and Kate, but Billy Zane and Co. as well!) and the breathtaking cinematography and music combined with Cameron's monumental style (T2, True Lies, The Abyss) gave a wonderful mix.
