First watch ever.
Wow. What a masterpiece. The cgi has aged a bit but damn what an incredible way to tell this story. Yes the story of Jack and rose is fictional but just so well done. Impeccable casting. Throwing the diamond at the end? Incredible.
There was absolutely room for 2 on the door. But hey, we do it for the plot. It’s better that way.

This could’ve been really great. I feel like they had a lot they were trying to say, but not enough time. An extra hour could’ve done them well, but to that point the overall story and emotion still feels flat.

In the words of Daniel Rodriguez/Hardwick, “That’s Anotha Dub.”
3/5
