Titanic is afloat


Titanic is written by James Cameron. In my opinion, his is a great movie. The acting is great and the story is fantastic and the special effects were pretty good, even though there were very few. This movie is personally one of my favorite movies of all time.

The story is amazing. The fact that the story started in present day and the story is old to the treasure hunter, Bill Paxton, and some of his crew. I think that this is a fantastic idea and original. The romantic involved is really good too. There was the right about of action and romance in the movie. The adrenaline rushing art of the movie was done semi realistically. It would not have been that clam in the beginning in real life, but other than that, it was all realistic because titanic was a real ship, that part of the story is a true story. In the first disk, I fell in love with the characters and in the second disk, my heart was pounding waiting to see what happens next to the characters that I just fell in love with.

There were very special effects used, but the ones used were expensive and realistic. The ship sinking was the only part of the movie that required special effect, along with the beginning. But other than that, none were needed. In the beginning, the effects were used well. Showing us the ship that sunk so many years ago and showing small and quick clips of what it used to look like. There was also showing the size of the ship when it leaves the port. Then theres when the ship sinks. These effects were done extremely well. It looked realistic and kept in in the mood of the movie because I wasen't looking and paying attention to how fake it looked becuase it didn't.

The acting was great, I believed every word that the actors spoke. The romance between Jack and Rose was 100% believeable. I had no doubt that the two of them were in love and that Rose dosen't love Cal. Sure, some lines in the script were unrealistic, like when Rose was looking for Jack when he was handcuffed to the pipe, She calls out his name multiple times when she finds him and he starts sayin her name over and over again too, when in real life Jack would say something to do with getting out of the handcuff and getting the hell outta the bottom of the boat. The acting in the movie was realisic though, even with the few unrealistic things in the script, and so I cried when the director wanted people to cry and to laugh and smile when he wanted us too. Leonardo DiCaprio was a perfect choice for Jack. He is cute and fits the character very well

This movie is amazing and one of my favourites because of the amazing acting, realistic special effects and the overall story.
