Titanic

I don't know why it took me 13 years to watch the whole movie of Titanic.

I know the whole Jack-Rose and the ship sinking shit story but I didn't really have the chance to watch it full length. Thanks to piratebay.org, uTorrent and of course Kim for finally ending my ignorance about this movie.

James Cameron really got me crying like a baby here. Kim and I were weeping and whining as if we were in the actual situation.

Since I don't know how to give a movie review, I'll just vent out my favorite highlights in the movie:

  • The "You jump, I jump, remember?" line partnered with Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On is a splash of cold water on my face it got me crying so bad. I wished that kind of love existed. Just like Kim said "Sana yung you jump, I jump story nangyayari in real life, hindi puro I jump na lang.." 
  • And who could ever forget the epic scene when Jack and Rose first kissed at the edge of the ship after Rose saying "I'm flying, I'm flying.." It was the sweetest yet the weirdest thing I ever witnessed.
  • I love Jack Dawson. Despite him being poor, he does everything for her girl to be safe. That's what I want in a man. ASSURANCE. SECURITY. PROTECTION.
  • I admire the captain and engineer's nobleness. Taking all the blame and responsibility for all the lives lost even if it wasn't asked of them. Nobody wanted that to happen.
Titanic for me is the greatest tragedy ever written. Rose and Jack might have known each other for only a short span of time. But I guess it was enough for it to last 84 years. Or at least in the movies.

Too bad the love story is the only fictional part in the movie.
