Despite it being a disappointing flick, it is educational in the sense that this catastrophe actually happened and it is okay for children to see it to stay informed about our history, and making more people aware of this event, as of other historical events is a positive message. What also makes it boring is that it is not like “The Poseidon Adventure” from 1972 or its remake “Poseidon” from 2006, which both include intense and intoxicating peril. It just shows the Titanic approaching the iceberg and then water gushing into the boiler rooms. It is also disappointing that it did not show the Titanic striking the iceberg on-screen. It therefore gets very boring, and I believe it is overly long and overly emotional, which made it more dramatic than serious and believable. This depiction was a good try and had good accuracy, but as soon as the Titanic strikes the iceberg, the movie drags significantly, and a great portion of the movie is about the main sailors of the ship getting the passengers to safety using separate small boats. However, I have seen a myriad of movies and have seen much better movies than this one. This movie is, no doubt, a classic, since it is from the late 1950s and is about an extremely significant event in our history: the sinking of the Titanic.
