| Film Review |
| Cost:
well over $200m. Disregarding the ethics of such expenditure on a
film, this unprecedented extravagance has not resulted in sophisticated
or even very satisfying storytelling (11 Oscars notwithstanding).
The main problem concerns characterisation and structure. A framing
device in which contemporary fortune hunters question a now ancient
survivor, followed by a romance between upper-crust but frustrated
Rose (Winslet) and a poor but plucky artist (DiCaprio), entails not
only a needlessly protracted build-up to the collision, but primitive
plotting and performances. Moreover, the sudden, skimpy, soggy love
story leads to a conclusion that's perversely uplifting: if your love's
strong, you never really lose each other. (Piffle!) That said, the
effects mostly ensure pretty gripping spectacle once the boat begins
breaking up. Even then, however, most of the best scenes - excepting
a memorably macabre floating necropolis - are so reminiscent of Rank's
superior 1958 movie A Night to Remember that Eric Ambler's name would
not look amiss on the new film's credits. (Bizarrely, however, Cameron
neglects the poignant fact that a nearby ship failed to respond to
the Titanic's SOS, thus upping the body count considerably.) Unlike
its namesake, this glossy, bombastic juggernaut will not sink. Everyone
will see it anyway, and so they should, if only to ponder the future
of mainstream cinema. Reviewed by "Time Out" |

| Clip 1 | The Uber-Famous scene where Leo draws a nude portrait of Kate in her ill-fated stateroom. It's all set up for PG-13, but the sexual tension just sizzles in this scene. When I first watched this movie when it came out, Leo did not really impress me much as a leading romantic male. But his later works (Aviator, etc) drew me back to it and I can see the soon-to-blossom passion in him now. I'd do him in a heartbeat. Buff Rating: 5 |
| Clip 2 | The car in the hold scene. One of my favorites. No skin shown, but the fact that this represents John Jacob Astor's actual car that was on the Titanic gives it a bit of an historic thrill. Kate's performance in this scene is simply stunning. Buff Rating: 4 |
