CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Michael_Elliott Ghosts of the Abyss (2003) *** (out of 4) Director Cameron's "return" to Titanic was this documentary with groundbreaking technology that hoped to capture images of the sunken ship that had never been seen before, Cameron was joined by countless historians, scientists and even Bill Paxton as they went 12,000+ feet below the sea to the final resting place of Titanic. This is a very mixed film because it was originally intended for IMAX screens but even then it was shot 35mm and blown up for IMAX so several people complained that the images wasn't nearly as good because of that. Seeing it at home you obviously loose the scope of the production but the images are incredibly clean and most of the time they're amazing. The crew are armed with the smaller cameras that are pretty much robots that can swim their way through the ship and reach areas that would seem impossible. The main reason to watch this film are for these images of the ship, which is pretty much just a burial ground for over a thousand people. We get to see the rooms of the Captain, Molly Brown and even Ismay but then we get to see even lower levels of the ship. The ship certainly isn't in the best of conditions as more and more bacterial grow on it each passing day but it's amazing to see windows still in place and one sequence shows us a bottle of water that is still standing upright. These images are amazing to see as well as being quite haunting because even though your eyes are wide open pulling all of these sites in, you have to remember the lives that were lost. The film runs just under an hour and it's certainly worth watching for all of this footage but at the same time there are a lot of issues with the movie. For starters, there's really not much of a story and there are many times when you have to question what Cameron was wanting to show or how he was wanting us to take what he was offering. Just look at the sequence where one of the robots pretty much dies inside the ship and we have to sit through the rescue. This sequence just seems like something that should have been in the deleted scenes section of the DVD. With that said, being this close to the Titanic is reason enough to sit through this.

daniel-stilgard This documentary are very fascinating and interesting, because they have found so much fact about Titanic, passangers and the crew.It is also fascinating when they shoot the real Titanic on the see bottom.James Cameron has made a brilliant documentary about Titanic. It is both fascinating and captivating film which show how the pass-angers and crew made their best to survive the disaster in 15 April 1912.Ghosts of the Abyss is a film you must see and will to imprison your heart.Titanic sank in North Atlantic about 100 years ago.

wolfentertainment When I first heard about this, I was intrigued, I had been interested in the Titanic long before the movie came out and underwater exploration of the shipwreck had always been fascinating to me. I finally got my hands on the DVD of this documentary and well I was blown away by the stuff they showed from INSIDE the ship, it was a pity that they didn't show more, because they could've easily omitted parts where they were on the Keldysh and the poorly recreated scenes from the ship.All in all, this was good and showed some stuff I haven't seen before, but if you really want to see better footage of the shipwreck inside and out I'd recommend other documentaries that are in the same line as this one. But yet it was still interesting, light-hearted and mind blowing to see the condition of the ship itself.

Frederick55110 Wow! What can I, say about this movie that it won't say about itself half way thru? Starting at the end and working back the first thing I, take issue with is the dedication at the end credits "To Walter Lord" the one human who strove to explore and find the truth about the wreck of the Titanic and all things related to it (his uncle was captain of the California, the ships captain charged with not coming to the aide of the Titanic, finally cleared of the charges after his death).From the horrible computer generated graphics that are supposed to be the rovers inside the Titanic, to the stupid computer generated portholes showing the actors inside the diving equipment this work of fiction, sprinkled with just enough facts to make it try to appear genuine is overworked overacted and not very truthful. At the very least its not very accurate. The most humane thing I, can do is to tell anyone reading this that if you want a more accurate and truthful representation of the events of that night simply go to the store and get a copy of Walter Lords "A night to remember" it may be black and white but it does get to the truth of the matter. If you want to find out about what happened to the ship since it sank I, would suggest the A&E movie "Titanic: Death of a dream" with Dr. Robert Ballard, Walter Lord, The living (at the time) survivors of the shipwreck and narrated by David McCallum. Since i'm spouting off about this movie and making recommendations about other movies your probably asking what do I, know about it? Simple, I've studied this ship and dreamed of raising it since I, was a child in the 1960's of course these dreams were dashed when Dr. Ballard found the wreck in pieces. I, never gave up reading and researching this and other shipwrecks.
