On the 100th anniversary of the original voyage, a modern luxury liner christened "Titanic 2," follows the path of its namesake. But when a tsunami hurls an ice berg into the new ship's path, the passengers and crew must fight to avoid a similar fate. Titanic II was made by the same company behind 'Terminators' and 'Tomb Invader' and you know what that means right? It Sucks. The acting was bad, the special effects were even worse and i still don't get it why someone like Bruce Davison agreed to appear on a movie so bad as this, i guess the money was good.

I don't even know why they would do a second Titanic..it amazes me how they think this'll make any money or profit in the box office. This film got a hype review before it had of even come out, it got people all hyped up..and turned out to have shocking results and poor reviews. If you are thinking of buying this film...don't bother, you are wasting 1-2 hours of your life..plus another downside is (and you know if its a good film or not) that there were no options for subtitles...the majority of films that are produced should have subtitles as an option and also audio description should be another option.I am very disappointed but no one can reproduce a film like David Cameron and have Kate and Leo being the main protagonists.

Words cannot even begin to describe how awful and boring this film was. Don't bother wasting your time watching it. Lazy casting, lazy filming, lazy editing and terrible actors.Firstly, it is not explored in any detail as to why exactly someone would build a replica of the Titanic. Who would do such a thing? Why would people get on it? Is the boat taking off from New York or California? Where is the boat going? These are just some of the many many unanswered questions that this tragic film poses.Secondly, there are endless factual errors. For example, its worth pointing out that if a boats engine gets cut out, it doesn't just stop. It carries on for a short while, it does not come to an immediate standstill like the Titanic 2 seems to have miraculously done. If any of the directors had paused for a moment they would've realised this, however, they obviously were much more interested in pushing out a lazy half-baked piece of trash aimed at riding on the extremely profitable tail-coat of it's much more successful predecessor (although I hesitate in linking the two in any way shape or form). The acting was also absolutely abysmal. I almost laughed at the cringe-inducing cry of 'NOOO' coming from Amy (played by Marie Westbrook) when her friend Kelly gets crushed by the closing door. Sadly though, it hit me like a wave when I realised that this was supposed to be a serious film, alluding to a very serious disaster. You'll notice though I said 'wave' there, not 'a wave thats carried an ice burg on the crest of itself all the way from the Arctic' because that would be ridiculous, not that that stopped the directors from making that a central feature of the entire film. Overall, an abysmal and tragic film. I could go on for hours pointing out every error, but that would require watching the film again, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Not being familiar with the work of Shane Van Dyke, I was stunned to see that he both brilliantly directed this film while giving a superb lead performance of power and sensitivity. Quite a feat when directing a large cast in a special effects extravaganza. Working from an intriguing concept and a very strong script, Van Dyke gives Cameron's version of Titanic a run for the money with ground breaking creative choices that make the very most of the resources at his disposal. His camera work is magnificent and it is clear he has studied many of the past great cinema masters. However, his style is creatively unique and all his own, even if inspired by the best in film history. With incredible excitement and overwhelming emotion, this is an outstanding story of man against the elements, the sea, and his own hubris. A strong supporting cast does truly fine work in depicting how ordinary people face possible catastrophe and rise to the occasion heroically in many instances. The final scenes are some of the most spectacular in the film and filled with heartbreak, sacrifice, and overwhelming human courage. This motion picture is certainly required viewing for anyone with a popular or scholarly interest in the grand but tragic tale of the original Titanic in 1912. The differences in what happens with the Titanic II are technologically, historically, and dramatically satisfying indeed. Shane Van Dyke is a name to remember and a creative auteur of untamed vision and his next work is one that will be highly anticipated by anyone devoted to cinema.
