Cameron creates a sweeping romance with spectacle but tbh its so long that at a point it feels self indulgent.
I like rose, her character is really good and the film making on display is amazing but....i don't care that much about jack and for the first 20 min or so we have to sit with obnoxious characters besides rose. I really hate those people searching for that diamond.
Jack is a fine character, he still has chemistry with rose but he as a character I just don't care for.
A large issue with the film in its 3rd act is that while I feel deeply sorry for the people on the titanic who aren't rich, it thinks it can use sad piano music for the rich people on board as well. That feels really weird.
