Another polished turd for the DiCaprio fan club to wet themselves over! I saw this film on video, and thought that it was the most overhyped piece of crap ever. It's a love story, that could have been set anywhere, this is rather dull, and involves Leo saving Kate Winslett, dancing with a bunch of stereotypical Irish types, then eventually painting her in the buff. Understandably her fiance is a bit miffed, then the boat starts sinking, so they run around for eternity in wet clothes. This film is so long, and I think that it was a disgrace that they used actually footage of the Titanic leaving, and then attached a boring love story to it. The scenes of the ship sinking and people dying don't go on long enough, we just get all of this crap between Leo and Kate instead. James Cameron should be ashamed.
