Saving the Titanic

I have to agree with many others here that this take on what happened with the sinking of the Titanic is both new and interesting. There were parts of it that felt and looked similar to the German version of 'Das Boot'. The pace, acting, detailed camera work and production are above average in their execution. Apart from a few 'unnecessary' scenarios (like the singing of 'Kelly'), and perhaps a bit too drawn out at times, the tension, grit and determination by these hard-working lowly crew members makes you realize how insignificant we truly are, despite the technology and expertise we have, against natural forces. The inclusion of factual narration that brought out new (to me at least) facts about this event added to the entertainment and historical context in which it is forever set. A solid drama that shows another aspect of both the event and technical issues that led to this disaster. Worth watching!
