Hi,
I must agree about Titanic, it is near-great if not great. We didn't see it
until May, 6 months after release, and it was much better than I expected.
There were characters you got to know, great effects, some humor, and only a
couple of lame parts, like the "flying" at the bow, and being chained to a
desk with the water rising. But in general I'd say it as at least an 8 of
10.
TPM on the other hand also has stupendous effect, but generally lame dialog
and many background distractions, maybe on purpose so you would forget the
characters? I'd give it a 6 of 10, where the previous 3 would all be
higher.
Mark

I have to say that I held off for a long time on Titanic. But it is truly a
great movie. Not what I expected at all (soapy romance dragged out
forever).
Lots of action, the romance story isn't soapy, the characters are great, the
sets/scenerary/special effects are phenominal. I'd have to say it was the
best
movie in years.
