 | MissPackRat4Jesus (38) 02/11/2008 | Older versions of this movie (one with Barbara Stanwyck in 1953) was fine. The 1998 version, pure garbage!

 | hotel283 (20) 04/23/2006 | One of the previous comments questions how this could pass for "cinema" They're right, back when people expected capable acting and directing this movie would never have reached the theatre.
However, in this day and age it had all the elements for "success" -
- the flavor of the month Hollywood actor/actress
- a verbose, predictable soundtrack by the music industries latest mule
- a story that the unwashed public knows vaguely enough to relate to, but not so much that they'd have to address the glaring factual flaws with these movies

 | Drummond (54) 01/09/2006 | Completely agree. Sort of a canned "epic."

 | edt4 (99) 05/24/2005 | This is what people in America consider classic cinema now? Whatever happened to standards of taste? They take one of the most dramatic incidents in early 20th century history, a tragic episode ripe with opportunity for genuine drama and emotion, and focus instead on a boring, trite, insipid (not to mention unconvincing) romance that wouldn't make it on a daytime TV soap opera. Oh, how I long for the days when film-makers concentrated on realistic, complex human characters and trenchant dialogue to fuel their movies instead of special effects. Sad, but I guess if enough people are willing to keep shelling out their hard-earned dollars to see this s**t why should the film-makers even bother to try?

 | earthbound (37) 05/20/2005 | Rarely have I felt such indifference to the fates of the main protagonists in a romance. They were both so unlikeable, I just did not care if they got together, drowned or were separated. They would not have been people I would have wanted to hang out with.

 | Gentle Jude (23) 05/20/2005 | How boring! There was so much hype about this movie, and the movie was meant to be this all beautiful movie, make the girls cry type of movie. What a lot of rubbish. I hate it when they ruin a potentially good movie by making it a lovey dovey romance movie.

 | CastleBee (81) 05/20/2005 | The love story had its poignant moments but in retrospect was mediocre, the costumes absolutely rocked, the special effects (i.e., the sinking of the ship) was spectacular, and I think it was overall a pretty engaging film. It wont go down in my personal history as one of my top favorites but I enjoyed it. So, sue me.
