Titanic

CriticsCritics: 86
AudienceAudience: 6.8

Unhappily married, a woman sails on the luxury liner with her two children while her husband boards too, seeking custody. Their tense family conflict fades as the ship’s voyage turns catastrophic after it hits an iceberg.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a classic, black-and-white Titanic story that emphasizes people and family tension rather than spectacle; Not for you if you prefer later, effects-heavy versions like Titanic (1997) or a faster disaster-first approach.
