Titanic [4 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] [1997]

Great movie and great quality 3D i like it alot. ..... ............

A well put film by James Cameron, with a good story about a grand ship.

In 1997 I enjoyed this movie in the theater, and I’ve always thought this is one of the best movies ever made! I was telling some of my family members how great the movie was. Their response was why do I want to go see a movie were a bunch of people drowned? Actually in this movie the sinking of the ship is secondary to the plot. It Has a lot of insight as to how the “rich” believed they were “better” than the average or poor people. All the money in the world can’t buy a minute more of life on a sinking ship, and some died, rich and poor that could have been saved. Even now some people are trying to profit from this tragedy. Add in some romance and some drama & action and you have a truly great movie. The Blu-ray has has much improved video quality with decent surround sound. My only wish is to see how good it would look in 4K UHD.

We all know the story! This review is about the Blu-Ray and the 3D. James Cameron did a excellent job remastering and did very well with the 3D! So what's changed? Scenes that were somehow 'ordinary' before are now 'dimensional' - at times you feel you could reach out and actually touch them... Examples - the front railings of the sunken liner at the bottom of the Atlantic at the beginning of the film, the unmanned sub that is filming it then making its way through the insides of the wreck - you now feel the machine and its cables - the space around it - the bubbling of the water - the barnacles and silt disturbed to the left and right. When the engine room ship-sized pistons kick into gear as the last boilers are lit - their size and power; the drinks glasses on the table at dinner as Bruce Ismay pompously tells of how he arrived at the ship's name - they have space around them and you feel you could almost lift them off the tablecloths. Even something as unassuming as Molly Brown's decorative hat as she talks to Jack (at a later dinner table setting) now reaches out of the screen into the aisles with extraordinary depth. Winslet's costumes are glorious too - First scene when they go back when she gets out of the car first thing that pops out is her hat... her radiant eyes and lustrous hair. The feeling of sea air and wind on the ship's gangways when Rose and Jack walk and talk and discuss art is accentuated - more realistic. But if I was to note just one scene that sums up how improved this version is - it would be the one where Rose tries to kill herself by jumping off the back of the ship. As she steps over the railings and the camera looks down at the cold wash below - suddenly the distance and the hugeness of the ship becomes 'real' - looking downward and with that added depth - you can 'feel' that fall...that freezing water below... The sound is huge too - groaning steel - creaking wood - the water crashing out of the screen right into your face as it floods corridors... Side note...... James Cameron is a perfectionist when it comes to detail and just take notice how the small things stick out in 3D also the above..Can't wait for his Avatar 3D to come out in October 2012

Think of the best movie ever made. Now think of a movie that you can actually say was better than Titanic. NONE. This blue Ray print is flawless. The sound, and the alternative ending is worth the blur Ray alone.

I am very satisfied with this DVD. You can watch it digitally without having to buy a DVD player. Just need to register an account on a video website, there is a code in the package of the DVD.

This movie still is as great as it was when I first saw it in the movie theaters. The DVD, although no 4K is a great and must have addition to myo or collection.

I've been a huge fan of this film since it's release in 1997. I've seen it 8 times in theaters, watch every Titanic documentary that comes across on History Channel and other such outlets, have owned the film on VHS, DVD, DVD Deluxe, and now this one. This is epic in the classic sense. While the screenplay is terrible, the acting, costumes, sets, directing, and sound all prove that, indeed, it is possible to make a good film from a bad script. The visuals are exceptional - you'll notice the individual people in some of the wide shots - particularly after the sinking, rather than anonymous blobs they were before, and a lot of tiny details in the clothing and set design that show off the painstaking detail. The lossless soundtrack brings this thing to life, and the 3-D brings depth and scale that 2-D can never hope to reach. Top it off with an entire disc full of special features (including one hour of FULLY PRODUCED deleted scenes. That's right; music, full sound effects, clarity as good as the regular film, and none of those weird numbers at the top of the screen). Most of these are rightfully cut, but there's a brief scene showing the unfortunate end of Cora (the girl Jack dances with at the below-decks party) and her parents, the make the tragedy hit harder (too hard? Cameron thinks so) than ever before, and an alternate ending (along with greater Brock Lovett character development in earlier scenes) the one which involves Rose dropping the Heart of the Ocean overboard, is still flawed, but, in my opinion, better than the original, and you get to see Brock react to seeing her do it. Finally, there's a documentary that goes through everything - from Cameron getting the idea to pre-production, production, release, cultural phenomenon, the Oscar triumph, backlash, and ends with the 3-D conversion to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the sinking. Conclusion: a must have for fans, a should have for everyone else.
