Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It is a most affecting and impressive picture.

rotten:
Nary a tear-jerking trick is missed (our family loses one son to the Titanic, the other to World War I), and the strangulation is compounded by the staginess since the film.

fresh:
This is the first big film out of the Fox studio since Sheehan's return there and this is a big picture from and on every angle.

rotten:
It's rife with fey, unintentional camp like the scene in which a newlywed couple pledge eternal love on the deck of an ocean liner -- only to move away and reveal a life preserver labeled Titanic.

fresh:
A gloriously, heart-rendingly beautiful, stirring picture of a generation in British family life.
