Perfect Blend Of Fiction & Fact

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2007)

As much as I really want to knock this movie....I cannot. It almost made me cry- just like a chick flick. The screen writing of James Cameron is simply superb, in this movie. He obviously did ALL of his homework! The excellent CGI graphics of 1997 is still top-notch, by today's standards. The accuracy of all characters, and of the ship itself- is dead-on. I have read a lot of books on Titanic since this movie, and the realism is phenomenal. The final sinking scenes of the movie are the most riveting.
I have watched this fine movie over ten times, and it never seems to grow old. I am not a Celine Dion fan- but her haunting musical score, gave this movie the full effect it deserves. Watch this movie and get a firsthand feel for what it's like to experience a turn-of-the-century steamship, and it's catastrophic sinking. A wonderful history lesson- all in one fine DVD.
