It's an embarrassment that this movie is the highest grossing film of all time...

Rating: 4/10 (8 February 2002)

Yes, I did see it in the theaters, but I was forced. That is exactly how this movie made it's money. Crazed teenage girls. Don't even argue with anyone that says otherwise, this is the reason. This film was absolutely terrible. Sure, it's great for historical reference. NOT! Try renting the original Titanic film, it has a much more entertaining and informative story. This film, rediculous teen movie crap. During the time period that this movie came out, I must have asked all the girls I could find at one point or another what they would do after school. Simple answer. "Go see Titanic!" These are people dishing out 8 dollars a day to see a film!
Not to mention all the boyfriends that were dragged into theaters kicking and screaming by their girlfriends (I know, I was one of them), the adults tricked into thinking this was an Oscar worthy film (which it wasn't) and the terrible story line. How and why did they spend so much money on this film?! How would they know it would gross 600 million rediculous dollars, buying all the people involved new houses and cars??? People must have been paid to see this movie, or say anything positive about it. And then there's the Oscars. Fortunately, the Oscar that Good Will Hunting deserved the most, it got, and that was that of best screenplay. But 11, 11 of the movie businesses most respected awards went to this sorry excuse for a teen movie.
Now your saying "Well, Mr. Big Mouth Know It All, if it was so crappy, then why did so many of these voters vote for the film?" I'm just as clueless as you are, sorry. Wanna know my guess? They were being threatened by their obnoxious 9 year old nieces, or there were mobs of 14 year old girls outside of their houses threatening to give their lawns an uneven mow if they didn't put as many Oscar votes for Titanic as possible. Bottom line, spare yourself the 3 hours of your life you could use for something else. Go watch tomatos grow in a garden. While not as exciting as Titanic (barely much more), it's a much more in depth experience. Or, if you absolutely have to, make sure you spread the word - Titanic is a total embarrassment for the movie world.
It's like a big, huge tree, growing right on your nose that you can do nothing about. Since it's made so much money, it is very noticeable, and nothing can be done about it. Terrible, terrible, terrible.
