Titanic 2 [DVD]

I'm just coming to the end of this film now, it's been sitting on my Sky+ box for some time. It looks as though it might make a half decent film at first, but that rapidly goes right out of the window. Some of the acting makes me wonder whether Titanic II wasn't the only thing to sink without trace, I'd guess the same might have happened to some of the actors' careers as well. There are 'bad acting' moments aplenty, but the one which stands out for me is when some guy is smashing the lead guy's face in and the girl says 'what's wrong with you? Get off him!' Nothing wrong with the line, but the way she delivered it, it sounded like she didn't give a tiny damn out what she was saying. Probably worrying more about her own career after seeing how this pretty bad film was panning out.

To those who are saying that this is better than the 'original' (which one's that then - Night to Remember, 'Titanic', or Cameron's 'Titanic' .:D ) either you're off your rockers, or you're having a laugh. I'm not sure which.

So much of this film just doesn't make any sense. Example: the original Titanic was sunk by a glancing blow to the side. So why in the name of God did Titanic II's bulkhead design not accommodate a side impact? It's laughable.

Don't buy this. If you're curious, wait until SciFi repeat it again, as they will - they've already done so several times. Watch Cameron's 'Titanic', or if you want a film that's just about the disaster without any love stories, then 'A Night to Remember' is your man.

When Titanic II sunk, it probably fell right on top of the old wreck, crushing what was left over from the great ship - if this film is intended as some kind of tribute, then that's exactly the effect it has for me. Dire.

At one stage before production got their hands on it, it might have been a passably interesting script. There are more than enough cliches but with the anniversary this year then there was ample scope to do an updating of Poseidon Adventure film.

There were two major things it failed on. One was the production team itself and the second was budget - there wasn't a decent one on both counts to go on. That led to major disaster with setting of the scenes. The whole thing is filmed mostly on the Queen Mary - you know the ship that's now a hotel in dry-dock (and they didn't even try to disguise this with any inventive camera angles). The ship itself smacks of the 60s/70s with decor - how the location manager could even think to use the hotel to pass as modern cruise liner built to imitate Titanic must have either been permanently drunk or on a narcotic substance or both and for the producer/director to follow through.........not best advert for your careers mateys. Put it this way - the Queen Mary makes the 'The Last Voyage' made in 1960 look modern in fact made that whole film enjoyable compared to this one!

With modern inexpensive graphic packages - you can achieve higher quality CGI at home than was demonstrated in this film. In fact - they'd have been better getting in amateur model makers and filming the sequence. The actors did their best but to be honest - given surroundings - they just came across as terribly self-conscious and uncomfortable - a good set will provide motivation and no amount of good acting would ever detract from naffness! The two feed off each other....

I like cheesy films and in terms of disaster, the more cheese the better however this is one where turning the DVD into a bird scarer for newly planted seedlings is more than a highly attractive proposition. This is definitely one big turkey gobbling all the way to the mad house.

Best kept for when drunk with whole ton of mates and want total cheese to throw popcorn at the screen/talk/ignore what's on the box and might be mildly interesting to buy for 10p at a jumble/yard/car boot sale - wouldn't pay anything more - just simply not worth it. Read more ›

Has to be one of the most farcical films ever to grace the silver screen. From the Ridiculous Plot to the B-movie acting it really is laugh-out-loud from start to finish for all the wrong reasons. If you like bad movies for the fact they're bad this has to be the epitome.

I watched this on the Sci-Fi channel a few weeks ago with my girlfriend...We wern't expecting a blockbuster like the 1997 Titanic but thought it would be a decent time filler...
I wish I could shoot this film's director, cast and crew in the head! What the fudge were they thinking? I was laughing more at the 'special effects' and thinking a toddler could do a better job using WMP. I'd rather watch that purple dinosaur than this tripe....My girlfriend was ready to throw the remote at the TV because of it's cheapy, cheesy and utterly poop acting. I can't believe Amazon sell this rubbish!
Do yourself a favour and emigrate to Pluto before you get forced into watching this. Actually, if your going to Pluto...take all the copies of this pile of trash with you!
In short....DON'T BUY IT!!

Another cheap tacky knock-off from that awful Asylum studio.

Contrary to what its title suggests, this is NOT a sequel to Titanic (not that we'd want one anyway), rather it is a new Titanic built to sail on the same route of her predecessor in honour of the 100th anniversary of its sinking - and you'll never guess what happens: IT SINKS!

(Well, d'uuuhh.....)

Ridiculous plot, terrible acting, awful special effects & CGI so bad, it looks a cheap computer simulation - which it actually is, but you're not meant to notice

It's fitting in the dialogue when they face the impossible as the ship starts to sink that the main protaganist states: 'We never anticipated a side impact' - Hang on, wasn't it a side impact that sank the first Titanic?

That's how ridiculous this film is - it's so stupid it probably sank & landed on top of the old Titanic...
