Rekah Reviews: Titanic October 14,2011
Welcome to my corner of the Post! This week in old movie reviews (but new to me) is the movie Titanic.
The beginning was boring so I skipped that. It had some people looking for a piece of jewelry and some elderly woman started talking about it. The real movie stars some guy with blonde hair who wins two tickets (GAMBLING) to get aboard this vessel called the "Titanic". Apparently, this was a super fancy ship, but it didn't seem to do anything fancy. It floated and held a lot of people.
And then it also featured this girl with red hair-she didn't seem to be too happy to be there, but I'm not sure why exactly. I know I'd be pretty excited if I was on a super fancy ship that didn't do much more than float and hold a lot of people.
I skipped some of the scenes, but I replayed a scene of that the guy, Jack, yelling "I'm king of the world" over and over and over. He is not king of the world, he couldn't even afford to buy his own tickets.
So, that happens. He and the red headed girl run into one another and he shows her the ways of being King of the World. I think she enjoys it, she stands on the railing of the ship and acts like she is flying. In this town you better just learn to fly otherwise someone will push you off the railing. I just don't think Rose knows what she's doing.
They fall in love in like two days and then they fingerpaint the car windows. (It wasn't a very good painting if you ask me.) Then he draws her (NAKED), wearing only that necklace. It was an okay necklace. There weren't any penguins affixed to it, or bears, or owls, or octopi. It was just a big blue heart and some diamonds. So boring.
There was some dancing and some more romancing and a bad guy who I think wasn't that bad, but misunderstood.
Just when I think the movie is about to end, it keeps going! No one bothered to tell me this but an iceberg gets in the way of the Titanic. This spells nothing but chaos and trouble for Jack and Rose. Also:It is bad news for the whole ship. So, the ship is sinking(?!) and everyone is trying to get on the lifeboats. (Some stupid person said the ship couldn't sink and therefore didn't put enough lifeboats on the thing. I could have told them that anything is sinkable.)
I digress.
Ship breaks in two! Jack and Rose are in the water-which is very apparently very cold water since there are icebergs afoot. Rose gets on a door, but leaves Jack in the water.
He dies. She lives and becomes the old lady in the beginning of the movie. Then after telling her whole story she walks up to the end of the ship she's on and tosses that boring necklace back into the ocean. (She still hasn't learned to fly. I can not stress how disappointed I am in this fact.)
Okay.
First complaint; If I had known the ship was going to sink I would not have watched it in the first place.
Second: Jack is not King of the World.
Third: Rose really is not very nice for not sharing her door with him.
I think if you want to watch a really long movie with some pretty nice dancing in it. You should watch it. If you want to watch a movie that is going to make you happy, don't. The ship sinks. People die. And the self-proclaimed King of the World sinks to the bottom of the ocean.
I ate about 4 four cupcakes while watching it.
So, I'll give it a four cupcake rating.
Next time I'm going to watch it backwards-that way it will be a happier movie.
Until next week! XoXo, Rekah
