Is it just me, or are you really that boring?

Rating: 1/10 (8 January 2010)

I've given the movie Titanic a few chances as a movie I should watch as a lot of people keep telling me that it's a good movie. But no matter how many times, I always manage to leave the couch and find something else to do, or fall asleep, or this one time I forced myself to keep watching, I had this inexplicable feeling of nausea as I watched. It has failed to keep my eyes glued to the screen as a movie lover.
Good acting IMHO, I like the attention on scenic details, nice effects, it's got a lot of aspects that's supposed to make a movie successful (and I suppose these aspects had served their purpose), but the story and characterization are just... corny, and I get the feeling it's already been done for years and years. To be honest, it's like a romantic (corny) sexual fantasy of a curious teenage virgin from some decade ago with a grandeur setting. Not that I have anything against that turned into a movie, but why bother? The theme wasn't "Titanic" to me. The theme was "Jack n Rose's Tragic Love on whats-it-big-cruise-ship-that-sank"
Boring. I can "fantasize" something better. But at least somebody managed to make a movie out of it and made money, while I've never made any movie, so what do I know, huh? Well, at least all I know is that this movie just didn't impress me, and to top it off... What the heck is Celine Dion doing, singing that corny sappy hopeless romantic (emphasize on hopeless) theme song?
They really tried hard to be "titanic" I suppose, that in my eyes, they end up the same as Titanic. *crack... *bye bye
