"The genius of Titanic does not lie in the story itself. It lies in how the story is told."

Carlo Cavagna
4/5
"Whatever it's pigeon-holed as, you're going to love the movie."

Christopher Null
"This disaster-action-adventure-romance flick combines epic aspiration with cartoonish simplicity, with no qualms about going for the popular jugular, jerking tears and cheers with equal obviousness."
Philadelphia City Paper
Cynthia Fuchs
89/100

Apollo Guide
Dan Jardine

"An unconscionable disaster..."

Dragan Antulov
3.5/4
"It's something of an ingenuous revision of the standard disaster movie."
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
3.5/4
"What Cameron does is essentially give us a history lesson in an empowering, emphatic, entertaining way. This extraordinary flick feels like a big event with a litany of emblematic scope and impressive visual vitality."

Frank Ochieng
" The finale is a special effects dazzler but those scenes pale in comparison to the dramatic and creative ways Cameron exalts the salvific power of love."

ReelViews
James Berardinelli
4/4
"In his brilliant, monumental film
Titanic
, one of the most popular and beloved Hollywood movies of the past 50 years, James Cameron revisited that night in all its horror and glory."
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
4/4
"It lasts 3 hours, and I wasn't bored for a second."
Montreal Film Journal
Kevin N. Laforest
7/10
"The drama is cliched, if competently effective, but Cameron's dissolves from the Titanic's rusted hulk to her brand spanking new decks are breathtaking, even poetic."

Movie Habit

"Perhaps the most melancholy thing about
Titanic
is its celebration of romantic ideals to the exclusion of such self-denying virtues as honor, duty, and heroism."
