“I’m The King of The World”
The colossal melodrama that had been made by James Cameron 15 years ago is back in 3D format. This movie doesn’t have any differences according to the ‘old’ one. “The Titanic” tells a romantic love story between two persons during a prime journey from London to New York. For those who had seen this movie is not kind of regret to see this movie again, this movie is always provides the audience the harmony of sound and dramatized story that will call up your cheers and tears.
A young man named Jack Dawson (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) who won the lottery and the prize is a trip to New York by a luxurious ship called Titanic. Jack was very happy and he would not squander this opportunity. Titanic was a great and very luxurious ship that had just completed. Titanic was called ‘A Ship of Pride’. The gloriousness of the ship made many people boasted that the ship could not sink. Most of the Titanic passengers were the aristocratic class. They are the ones who are very wealthy who have the honor to try the first Titanic trip. The Ship would sail from london to new york. In the vessel, Jack met a woman from an elite group named Rose DeWitt Bukater (played by Kate Winslet). Rose which was saturated with the life of the elite, charmed with the innocence of Jack. They eventually fell in love. They met each other when Rose was trying to suicide on the stern by jumping to the coast, but thankfully Jack was there and he stopped her immediately by his own way, then Rose canceled her plan to commit suicide. At first Jack was accused of sexual harassment, then Rose made a statement if that tragedy was an accident.  Caledon Hockley (played by Billy Zane), Rose's fiance, was very angry with their attitude. He was insulted to see his fiance close to a poor boy like Jack. At last Caledon Hockley believe his fiance, then as a regard, Jack Dawson was invited to their dinner. This is the opening story that represent the first met between Jack and Rose. After this scene, Jack and Rose became closer and the relationship between Rose and Caledon Hockley became worse.The story of a very romantic love triangle dominates the whole of the stories in the Titanic movie. The story and the charisma of the players made Titanic kept in audience’s mind. Another strength of this film, namely because the film is based on a true story. A deified Cruise ship had very bad luck and finally, one hour after it struck an iceberg, the Titanic was sinking, just at two in the morning the Titanic is totally sank, in the month of April 1912.
            All of the actors and actress here played well, especially Kate Winslet, she was really good when she act as an elite and gorgeous woman, I think it was really hard when we really forced to act as a noble woman in 1912-era, but she did it well. Being Jack Dawson was difficult also, in shis character we were forced to be a childish but has an authority also, but Leonardo DiCaprio did it well. Caledon Hockley inside this movie had awful part, in my opinion, he seemed to be dissappeared in the scene when Jack and Rose were talking each other on the deck, he seemed not very close to his fiance. I think in this scene Caledon Hockley must be more curious to search and to protect Rose from Jack.
            I love the beautiful scenery of  ocean when Jack and Rose got their first kiss, it was very real, although I knew it was a computer editing. I like the scene when Rose was being drawn by Jack, the face expression of Jack was very shy, we could see it when his cheek was blushing. I like the scene when Rose was trying to help Jack when Jack was being cuffed, she was holding an axe and immediately swang the axe, it was really straining, but at last she succeded, she could break the handcuffs. I didn’t like the scene when it showed an incident that a number of the coal worker boiled close to the fire place when the water came in, it was really frightening for me, I could not imagine, how did it feel. I also like the scene when Jack and Rose were already floated above the ocean, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet really act well, they could pretend as real-chilled person.
From this movie I could learn that love and joy are always precious, they could not be paid by money or even pearl. We should not be arrogant, we should get closer to God. After we believe in God we are also ought to make efforts and never give up is the key to reach our successness.
            This movie is obligated to be watched by couples who were in a relationship, because this film is very romantic, and I believe after you watched this movie you and your boy/girlfriend would become closer and become more romantic. Children who were under age probably don’t have to see this kind of film, because this film will give nothing interesting to them, and probably they will get bored soon, and the most important is this film would give less moral value for underage children.
