Titanic 4K Ultra HD [Blu-ray] [Region Free]

The image on my modest 32'' widescreen is clear but not huge. But the quality of the rendering of this block-buster is SO good, this due to the rendering possessing a MUCH wider palette of colours, brightness and contrast levels, and to top it all with great sound. In fact, I thought there was a fault with the Blu-Ray device, comparing it to the DVD and DVD player i previously used. This continued until i realized how superior this Blu-ray copy is by possessing these attributes and how really good it looks even on an a standard quality, wide - screen typical telly.The quality of the Blu-ray is held back a bit by my ordinary telly. I have seen my sister's TV, and it is of much better quality, and these disks would be much improved with a better set. I have met casual viewers of this movie who say that its recreation of the event is full of inaccuracies. At the time I saw it first, I bought seven books from Amazon about the Titanic and read each at least twice. Overall, its retelling is accurate. More so than with the reputation of 'Night to Remember'. The major possible big error is that the ship would not have been beyond 23 degrees from the horizontal, as its keel would break. This was tested and proved by a TV station that paid the $40k to have the shipyard designers accurately create the Titanic parameters in CAD and test its performance on a computer. The only other error is when Jack wins the card game, he boards the R.M.S. Titanic at noon. The last time a person could, in reality, board the ship was actually 11:15. There was a coal strike, and the Titanic needed to buy coal from several ships around it. The radio wouldn't work. So it was stripped down and rebuilt in 24 hours. The radio was tested and was powerful enough to reach and receive from Cairo, Egypt. If it had not been fixed, then the wreck would have been a total loss of crew and passengers, with no records of what went on. When the R.M.S. Titanic's engines started at exactly noon, off in Southampton Harbour, they had so much force that it almost caused the S.S. New York to hit the Titanic. The film, overall, was the best they could do at its time of creation.There are features on the other disk in this set. The two big ones feature a diagnostic of what happened to the ship and how it sank. These were very interesting to view on their own.I saw this movie in the cinema at its original showing three or four times. The audience was upset at the scenes, and I heard people, both men and women, around me crying. The people who see it now will not admit to this ever taking place! And its effect doesn't make me cry now. I am less moved by this movie now, too.If you watch this Blu-Ray and close the movie off several minutes before its ending, when you next view it, it will return to this point. If you want to see the movie in its entirety again, you will have to battle and negotiate the menu to return to the starting area. It's easier to just let the movie end and retrieve the disk.If you like or love this movie, and if you ever have the time to view the artefacts retrieved from the wreck of the R.M.S. Titanic, I recommend you go. My brother wasn't going to see it, but his friends said it's once in a lifetime. So he drove both of us, and I paid for myself and my brother at £17.50 each. To see the retrieved ruins is a privilege and an honour. As it turned out, my brother, who's not keen on the film, touched the 'Big Piece', a 15-ton piece of the hull, for over a minute and was still and spellbound.

One of the best Hollywood epics of all time comes alive in this stunning 4K release.

I purchased this DVD as it is a great movie

Okay, I admit I am a fan of Titanic. Why? Well let me explain while trying to be fair. The story is set around the voyage of the real ship RMS Titanic in 1912. We all know how that ends.I will begin by saying that I am a fan of James Camerons work. He has a good idea of big budget blockbuster movies that appeal to me in many ways.Titanic is the only one that until 2016 (Yeah, I know a little late, nearly 20 years right?) that I had been putting off. Why? The negative feedback has a lot to do with it. Eventually I figured why not try to watch it as some of the themes appealed to me.Am I happy to have finally bit the bullet? Yeah I am in most ways. The period costumes and set designs are cool and hold up well even today, the CGI still looks fine for a late 90s movie as well.The casting of the movie sparked mixed feelings from viewers but I don't really mind most of the actors here as they are considerably talented in the chosen roles and play the parts well.Another positive is the soundtrack by James Horner. I love this score. It blends the themes of the movie together well while keeping the pace steady. From Character development and back story scenes to the tension of the disaster in full swing it's a stellar performance from a fine composer. Add Celine Dionn to the mix and you are on to a winner.There is of course a problem here though. It's the Romance between the two lead stars. I have nothing against a young couple falling in love while being totally different, that's natural. Inserting something like that into a movie based on a true disaster on a huge scale however?That literally makes a warning bell go off in my head. Titanic is not a romantic story. It's a tale of class difference and how bad decisions lead to a tragic loss of life in one of histories worst maritime episodes.This aspect of the story is handled well, but the biggest let-down here actually isn't the romantic elements or the cast. It's the writing and Dialogue. Oh My God it's corny. Some of the lines make me grin in embarrassment for the actors and I feel sorry for them on several occasions due to this.I will say it. If the writing had been better even the love story could have been saved. It's a shame as everything else about the movie even after such a long time still holds up to a decent standard.Cheesy lines and cliches set in the background of a real life event as bad as Titanic hitting the Iceberg is something in my opinion you just should not do and that's the reason for the four stars in this review.I do like most aspects of the movie including the history behind the actual event but yeah... I can't get away from the fact that I cringe at the writing of some of the major scenes.Titanic then is a fun movie, if a little long, three hours is pushing the boat out (pun not intended at all)Personally I give it 7/10 because of the soundtrack, historical accuracy that holds up to a decent standard and the effects. The things letting the score down are as I mentioned above.Fictional Romance during a true disaster story, silly lines and predictable outcomes keep the movie from being a masterpiece for me.Try it out on a Rainy day and see how you feel afterwards. I am in the middle, keeping the positive ideas afloat while trying not to let it go down like a sinking ship. Literally walking between the decks to try and keep it equally stable.Puns aside I say don't let negative feedback put you off. Just take the plunge and try the movie. I for one felt like I missed a decent flick that could have been brilliant.

The titanic its a brilliant film but it just shows what happened on that night but the story leading up to it with Jack and Rose it was it was great lovely and touching total tragic what happened beautiful ship its a big must superb film keeps you on the edge of your seat there are very sad moments in the film
