Titanic

When searching on the internet i found a review of the Titanic on the Los Angeles Times web site. The review was written by Kenneth Turan. The beginning of the review answers the question, "what does $200 million buy?". The movie had the largest film budget of any movie ever made. The more than three hour movie used a 775 ft. scale model of the real ship. The scale model was sunk in a seventeen million gallon pool. You can just imagine why it cost so many millions to make this film. Kenneth Turan later introduces James Cameron as the producer of the film. He mentions some of his other works. Turan criticizes Cameron on his film. He believes that writing this kind of movie was not in his abilities. Cameron goes on to say that the movie "reeks of phoniness and lacks even minimal originality". I chose to post this review because it was the first one that I saw that had negative things to say about the movie.
