I'll be frank. I don't like this movie. I don't know if it's because I associate it with busted recorder solos of "My Heart Will Go On" performed by children or if it the film itself is just too damn long. There is nothing wrong with the film, the first half is a decent romance exploring themes of class and social role, and the second half is an exciting disaster film with a tragic ending. The casting and world building are exquisite. Indeed, Billy Zane does such a good job of being the antagonist Calander Hockley it might have ruined his career. The early 90s can almost be characterised by Leonardo Dicaprio inspiring teenage girls to kill themselves, in this case, purely from Rose's reckless behaviour in her efforts to rescue Jack. Seriously let the damn man on the door if he matters so much, or at least get him a life jacket. Regardless of its plot holes or sheer length, it's still deserving of being a film you have to watch once in your life. Even if you don't like it.
