Movie Reviews of Titanic
Movie Review: Captivating
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the greatest romantic adventures of the 1990s, involving passionate romance, intrigue, adventure and danger.
This movie both resurrects the Titanic ocean liner and it's fate, and creates a an intricate romance against it's backdrop.
Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet) is trapped in loveless engagement with the wealthy but arrogant and cold hearted Caledon Nathan "Cal" Hockley (Billy Zane), and is rescued from ending it all by third class passenger Jack Dawson (Leonardo Di Caprio).
Against the wishes of Cal and her mother, Rose falls into a passionate romance with Jack, who paints her in the nude wearing the necklace set with a valuable blue diamond called the Heart of the Ocean.
This article provides the basis of the framing device as the 101 year old Rose (Gloria Stuart 84 years later explains the story to the treasure hunter Brock Lovett (Bill Paxton) and his team who are exploring the wreck of the RMS Titanic,.
Gripping throughout with a phenomenal ending. The captivating Kate Winslet is perfect for the part of the spirited young Rose, and De Caprio provides an energetic and irrepressible hero in Jack Dawson.
Spellbinding, gripping and heartbreaking scenes of the disaster itself. Memorable and heart wrenching is the scene of an Irish mother putting her young children to sleep with a bedtime story just before the ship sinks with them.
Appearance also by Kathy Bates as the real life heroine of the Titanic Molly Brown.
This has captivated millions of viewers with good reason.
Movie Review: Superb, Fascinating And Touching!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is a very wonderful and is a piece of movie with much intense and suspense scenes. The background scene of this movie especially on the Titanic(the scenery) is truly admirable. It is so beautiful and it's perfect to symbolize romance that this movie is focusing on.
Besides, it is an unbelievably touching story. The story line moves slowly and I could really understand the entire movie(the message and overall meaning that it brings) well. Generally, the messages that this movie brings are FREEDOM, HAPPIENESS and HOLD ON! The performence by the great actors such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet are very amazing and they capture my attention to this movie. I can feel the presence of real feelings and romance in their characters throughout the movie. I mean it is not just falsely made. I would be happier if Jack Dawson(DiCaprio) didn't die in the movie. It could end with a better ending instead of the really sad one.
Other that that, I also like the soundtracks of this movie. The songs in this movie are so soothing and sweet(especially 'My Heart Will Go On'). So, in overall this movie is well-acted, got a beautiful story line(touching as well) and sweet soundtracks. It is PERFECT!. With all the great aspects in it, I have no idea who can reject this movie. Those who hasn't watch this movie should really go and watch it. It is a movie that not to be missed. Until now, there's still no other movies that can be better than this one. This is a movie of true standard and quality! A great MASTERPIECE!!!
Movie Review: TITANIC!!!!! Movie of the century!!!!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
People said that Titanic would be an enormous flop, destroying 20th Century Fox more than Cleopatra did,35 years ago!!! But, it wasn't, it was a phenomenal hit!!!! Teenagers loved it because they felt like Rose (she was 17 when Titanic sank): she's beautiful, she's rebellious, she's searching for her true love,she hates the man who is destined to her, she's always unhappy, she doesn't like living in the rich world and teens could easily identify themselves to her and teens (girls) loved Jack beavuse he was handsome, brave, courageous,funny,serious, intelligent and full of life!!!And I was a kid when Titanic was released in France, Korea and South Africa, in the school newspapers, people said their favourite movie was Titanic because it talks it was romantic and they loved the characters (Jack and Rose). They loved Leonardo di Caprio especially and that was always annoying me (I don't like him) and in France, it was the most high-grossing movie of all time, beating "La grande vadrouille" (I recommend it to you, it's a very funny French comedy) with 21 000 000 tickets sold against 14 000 000 tickets sold!!!Ican't forget that movie, its music so beautiful and making me always cry when i listen to it, the characters who are very emotionnal, the costumes, the art direction, the visual effects (impressive!!! Bravo!!), the direction (thanks to James Cameron), the song amazingly sung by Celine Dion which made her also a super duper star!!!!!!!!
Titanic is the movie that nobody will forget even if it was released 6 years ago!!!!!!!!!
Movie Review: Truly provoking...one of the greatest works of all time
Summary: 5 Stars
Seriously,i think this is one of the most perfect movie i've ever watched."Perfect",in a way that the story plts fit in,characters were brought to life...and with a stellar cast.I'm pretty sure that almost everybody'd have probably know the story of Titanic...and the wonderful news of how it was nominated for some 11 Oscars.A wonderful movie...the DVD,however,was not really up to mark.Yes,there is the theatrical trailers...but i yearned for the behind-the-scenes features.
Leonardo DiCaprio portrayed himself really well in his role as Jack Dawson,an aspiring artist who falls for the rich and astoundingly beautiful Rose DeWitt Bukater,played by Kate Winslet.Two young stars,with Leo already featured in Romeo+Juliet,The Man in the Iron Mask...and the already nominated Kate for her role as the young Marianne in Sense and Sensibility,this is a wonderful and the mother of all Titanic films.The story goes on as Rose falls for the gregarious Jack,who also shared her appreciation for art...but has to falls from the preying hands of her fiance (Billy Zane)as well as her mother.A provoking tale was the poignant scene where viewers will be able to identify with when Jack freeze to death,as well as the unforgettable line from the movie "You jump,I jump".
Titanic,with a stellar cast,wonderful background and the nice yet melancholy movie...from the director of true lies and the terminator,truly deserves to be one of the greatest movie of all times.
Movie Review: are you kidding??? flawed but still great...
Summary: 5 Stars
i'm admitting that it has its flaws. the dialouge is a bit cheesy and sounds like I probably wrote it. but the directing was fabulous! the acting was great and they did a great job with a not so great script. but what really pisses me off is how people call these two charechters selfish!!! Rose and Jack were in love!!! rose wasnt happy with her SELFISH fiance...were you not watching the part when she was considering jumping off a ship, she couldnt say that she loved cal and he hit her???? she was infatuated with Jack and his lifestyle...she was forced into this rich snotty life...and she never liked it! her finace clearly did not love her the way jack did! and sure, jack was not rich and couldnt promise her the fabulous and boring lifestyle cal could...but rose didnt want it! she wanted to go out and see the world...she was clearly born into the wrong lifestyle! she lost her virginity to jack,but she loved him and she didnt love cal! she wasnt comfortable around cal the way she was with jack, she was always quiet and seemed very bored (kate deserved that oscar, her portrayel as rose, who struggled and evolved was amazing)! cal didnt really care if rose died! HE TRIED TO SHOOT HER!!! and although at certein times the affects did look fake, the whole movie was, scary, sad, thought provoking, moving and very well done! i particularly loved kates work in all this! I LOVED THIS MOVIE!!! IT IS TRULY AMAZING AND DESERVED ALL THOSE OSCARS!!!
