Synopsis

Titanica is a fascinating non-fiction drama which tells the story of the 1991 expedition to the wreck of the Titanic, the "unsinkable" luxury liner which collided with an iceberg and sank on April 15, 1912, losing 1,522 lives. Viewers experience the adventure, drama and danger of deep sea exploration through the activities of an international expedition team composed of unique and colourful characters, each with their own personal interest in the legendary wreck. Combining spectacular life-size images of the shattered remains on the ocean floor with recollections by survivor Eva Hart and computer-enhanced archival photographs, Titanica brings to life a remarkable tale of history, science and human ambition.

Lee Bartholomew I do agree the film doesn't come across as well as it coulda been shown as an IMAX film. But that aside, I don't care who talks to who. Sometimes I don't mind a mix of the history of within something like this. This technically could be useful if you watch this and Ghosts of the Abyss back to back as they are using Mir 1 and 2 in GOTA. The best footage is the debris field. The Titanic has it's debris field and that is part of the Titanic. It is very short, but with the hour your given, it really isn't that bad. I'd say my rating has more to do with watching this before you watch Ghosts. Instead of going in to a dead ship. And I've got the book with the photos of some of the white star line. And I learned some stuff thru the short interviews I hadn't before. I'd have to watch again to remember totally :)9/10Quality: 6/10 Entertainment: 9/10 Replayable: 9/10
Lee Eisenberg So the ship sank on its maiden voyage. We all know that, but "Titanica" is quite an impressive documentary. They not only talk about the actual sinking, but we also see the ship's remains on the ocean floor. It's neat and haunting at the same time. And believe you me, this is truly THE documentary that could only have been shown on the IMAX. Some of the information is hard to believe, but it all grows on you. All in all, if you want to know about that ship, this is the movie to see, not "Titanic" (why were they using a disaster to try and advance someone's career?). If possible, you should see this one. You may never want to go on a cruise.
nucksfan4life This IMAX film did not give me what I was expecting. I wanted to see the ship more than I wanted to see the three guys talking in the sub. That's what most of the movie was. Just one long conversation. Definitely the worst IMAX film I've ever seen. Unless you're the eavesdropping type, I'd recommend avoiding this titanic failure.
DrMess Not what it appears to be, only about 5 minutes total of IMAX underwater footage. Narration by Leonard Nimoy is good, but it is a typical "life and death of Titanic", rather than exploiting the actual IMAX photography that it's title infers. I was hoping to see at least 70% of the film as actual underwater sea wreckage. They never even showed pictures of the propellers, although I have seen still-frame IMAX shots of them on the internet, so I know they exist. Anyone looking for even moderate amounts of footage will be disappointed.
