I never heard of this one before finding a copy in the pawn shop. I went in a little skeptical as I normally am when it comes to superheroes I never herd of before. And when I watched the trailer... this one had a bit of a feel to it that discouraged me a little. I think it was the fact that Stan Lee was a major character himself in it. While I am used to his cameos... a major character had me a bit concerned. But I must say I enjoyed it quite a bit. Of course some of the characters I liked better then others and the story line was strong. I feel comfortable recommending it.

I always enjoyed this movie. Sadly I didn't go to see it at the cinema at the time. I first saw it on VHS, which I had given my mother as a present (she liked this movie so much, that she watched it twice in the cinema).

Unlike the other Titanic movies, this one almost exclusively revolves around two characters. What is great about this movie, is, that they build up a strong relationship between the two main characters in the first half of the movie, which brings a great human element to the disaster itself. Thus the sinking of the Titanic has a much more emotional impact on the viewer than the other Titanic movies did.
Kate Winslet is especially great in it. Especially in the second half she did a great job.

From the time Titanic hits the iceberg, this movie is very reminiscent of "A Night to Remember". On a technical standpoint, "Titanic" is a mixed bag. On the one hand, there are a lot of greatly executed scenes. But on the other hand, a lot of the exterior shots look very fake. Especially the CGI shots and green-screen scenes. Compared to "A Night to Remember", it doesn't hold up as well. It will certainly not hold up as good after 40 years as ANtR did.
