i was glad it sunk

Rating: 4/10 (9 July 2010)

The ultimate in awful blockbusters Titanic is a long , dull and slow-paced mess. The romantic relationship between the two leads is an obvious take on films like the African Queen however it comes across as terribly cliché making the audience cringe instead of cry although a few friends of mine did cry because of how awful they thought the film was. when we finally get to the sinking of the titanic we expect a spectacle we will never forget. The effect is good but it still doesn't make the audience sit on the edge of their seats. The acting is dry, lacking any charisma and the result is like watching William Shatner for a few hours. Titanic really does not deserve the 11 academy awards it "won"(clearly it was nominated by a group of shallow and insecure teenage girls).So far the only film that deserved that amount was Ben-Hur.
