No, Titanic is not one of the worst films of all time, but perhaps the worst big production in fifty years.
James Cameron is obviously suitable to direct cyborg and action films and such, since the unbelievability of this film's characterization never rises above a TV daytime soaper: DiCaprio (a considerable talent) is wasted here as he plays his role like a spoiled 90's megastar. Winslet is slightly better, though she also has a thin role to play.
Laughable situations abound: when the ship stands upright and people fall to their deaths, the main couple discuss:"This is where we first met!" Awful. The dim-witted young generation to whom this film is directed, is simply informed who the villains in the story are: they speak with British accents.The honest ones speak with American of Irish accents.
Inside the ship during the sinking, the lights keep constantly fluttering, as in other action films set in dark places. I wish I could continue further, but I have to sum up the point: this so-called film is actually a machine whose sole function is to churn out money and more money. Sadly, it succeeded.
