I think you're just jealous

Rating: Null/10 (11 November 2001)

from reading most of the comments on this site about this movie, most of them seem to be against it. Most everyone that wrote a comment said that this movie sucks. I also notice that most of the comments are written by guys. Being a guy myself, I am going to have to disagree with everyone and say that this was a great movie, and say that it deserves everything that it got. I'm not saying that it's the best movie ever made, but I am saying, that you can't deny the attention to detail in this movie. Everything about what went on when the ship was going down was absolutely on key. The whole time, I felt as though I was going down with the ship. The problem I think people have with this movie, mainly the guys, is that every girl in america went nuts for Leonardo. All I seem to hear when people trash the movie is how much they hated him. I think that picking Leo as the lead was genius. I mean think about, your making a love story, so why not pick the one guy that all girls are crazy about already? I think the director took advantage in a lot of points. I mean lets face it, when you're making a movie like this, you're not going for the artsiest approach or going for originallity, your going for what's going to attract the biggest audience. At the time, there was already some hype about the titanic with the reunion of some of it's survivors. The movie couldn't have come out at a better time. Plus, what other kind of movie is going to attract the sort of people that are going to go see it over and over and over? A love story! The characters and storyline couldn't have been any more conveniently picked to make a movie that people are going to go nuts over. I just think that a lot of people were largly disappointed when they found out that this highly anticipated epic movie turned out to be a love story. Which in my opinion, is the one of the best love stories ever told. With one flaw, which lies in the age of the lovers, which makes it hard for me to believe that they could really know anything about true love. But still excellently executed. Nonetheless, I think that this was an excellent film with an excellently picked cast. It couldn't have been done better. And a lot of you out there are probably thinking, man, this guy's gay. Well, I'm not. I can just recognize when someone achieves something such as James Cameron has.
