Titanic - 4K UHD / Blu-ray
How many times will James Cameron get my money? As often as he asks for it…It’s James Cameron doing James Cameron in the most James Cameron way possible. A true example of what the words ‘Hollywood’ and ‘epic’ can mean when combined it may be closer to 30 years old than I’d like to admit, but its sheer physical scale married to its simultaneously human core is like few other films do.No-one needs a recap of the story, so what’s on this edition? Well you have the new 4K UHD disc, the Blu-ray (based on the disc codes the same version from the 2012 release) and the extras which are split across the discs, including a disc specifically for the bulk of the non commentary extras. But as an aside, it bodes well for the upcoming ‘The Abyss’ and ‘True Lies’ releases in 2024.The 4K is utterly spectacular although I think I’ve read there has been some interesting new tweaks to the film through the way it’s been prepared for the 4K, which breaks new ground (typical Cameron) but basically makes it all look stunning. The normal Blu-ray also still looks fantastic anyway, still pretty clean and clear.Extras are a mix of some new material including a new 36 minute documentary, another new 42 minute documentary with James Cameron, some other new pieces and what seems to be almost all, if not all the same extras as were on the 2012 Anniversary 3D edition. This also means you get the three commentaries that date from 2005 (one by James Cameron, one by many of the cast and crew and one by Titanic historians and artists Don Lynch and Ken Marschall, which are loaded with information in a way most commentaries now simply do not manage), and enough material to completely immerse you in the production of the film.Very comprehensive.

Astonishing!
Wow - just seen this movie on a rented DVD and thought that it was so good that I had to buy it from amazon - and then I just happen to stumble across some of the many reviews and couldn't believe some of the comments in here: "Thank goodness that the Titanic sank and gave us such a wonderful tragedy" or "Insensitive to the dead passengers & their families"... and many people, for some reason, is also turned off by the love story - and some for the reason that Kate Winslet is too old looking for a 17-year old...etc. etc.I can't believe my eyes! OK - here is what I think - this film is amazingly well made and directed - what a fantastic work - thumbs up for James Cameron... also the acting and casting is outstanding - not a single one let us down and the two in the lead roles are marvellous.This film really touched me, not just because of the love story, which I saw more as a thing that could had happen anywhere and do happen all the time - also on a ship - although it of course is very moving (there were actually four couples on their honeymoon on the ship) - but most important as a sort of "documentary" of the terrible horror that the 2.227 passengers had to face. Because this REALLY HAPPENED!!! Out of the 2.227 passengers, only 705 survived, which meant that 1.522 died a most horrible death.That some people can get offended by a director, who out of his imagination, creates a love story to go along with the story - I don't understand - and I don't believe for one minute that it distracts you from its true mission, because I for one, was really seized and moved by the realism the film - showing how a gigantic "unsinkable" ship tragically hits an iceberg and slowly sinks into the ocean along with all the people on board, whose lives stops in their tracks right there and then. It is so well made that it makes you feel you are on board and it is a great relief that the film avoids the typical hysteria and heroism - a trap that most disaster films falls into. This film not only provides you with a gripping story, but will most certainly also stand the test of time as a true classic - keeping the memory of this tragic occurrence alive for generations to come.
