Titanic: 20 Years Later with James Cameron

Very interesting to revisit the film (which I loved) as Cameron reassesses what details/design he got right/wrong after continuing to make dives to the wreckage (over 30!) after the films release. This doc concentrates on set design and the details he had to assume or guess, most of which he did guess right, while also solving some unanswered questions about what really happened. Included are several surviving family members opinions on how they deemed the film. A lot of information and behind-the-scene type interviews packed in this 1 hour doc!! Will future blue rays contain this in extras?

For the 20th anniversary of "Titanic," James Cameron reopens the file on the disaster. Following numerous dives exploring the actual wreck, Cameron considers what they got right and wrong in the film. Not so much movie trivia as 'archeology' and more interesting than expected.

I was given the opportunity to sit down in 2020 and watch the 2017 documentary "Titanic: 20 Years Later with James Cameron". I jumped at the chance, because I wasn't aware of this documentary, and I wanted to see what James Cameron had managed to do since filming the 1997 movie. Plus, the fact that I had family myself about the ship, and I've always had an interest in the ship and the tragic sinking.

I will say that "Titanic: 20 Years Later with James Cameron" is well worth watching. And that applies to anyone with an interest in the ship herself, or those fans of the movie, or people with relatives that were aboard the ship. I feel that this documentary was done gracefully, and it was very rewarding to see the efforts that James Cameron have been putting into his interest and excursions to the ship at her resting place.

And as a documentary, it does enlighten things that I wasn't aware of. So "Titanic: 20 Years Later with James Cameron" was more than just entertainment value.

Plus it was also interesting to have people whose family were aboard the ship make an appearance and open up to their emotions and feelings of the movie and Cameron's portrayal of the events and their relatives in his movie.

I am rating this 2017 documentary a six out of ten stars.

This is vaguely interesting but it's also a supreme waste of time and resources. I understand the appeal of the movie and the historical significance. This is a weird kind of pointless curiosity. I can't help but wonder, what is the point of this exercise? Also the "what if" scenario, it's kind of unclear if it's in relation to the movie or reality.

James Cameron is an arrogant piece of work. While there is certainly some interesting stuff here, Cameron acting like he owns the wreck of the Titanic ruined this for me. You will certainly be in no doubt about how many times he has been to the wreck site.
