It was the Rose and Jack thing that did it for me. I almost walked out it was so ridiculous.
I had seen “A Night to Remember” and read the book so the “Titanic” was a big disappointment.
I just plain don’t like romantic movies. I love espionage,adventures,war movies,and murder mysteries etc.
I tell my grandchildren it is my dark side.
I’m sure there are a thousand little known real stories of the Titanic that Cameron could have told. He could have highlighted several. Why choose to make up a couple out of whole cloth? It was ridiculous. I loved the special effects, but the fake story really detracted from the movie for me.
