Review of Raise the Titanic (1980) by Matt A — 10 Jan 2011
A very well made family friendly version of Clive Cussler's novel,Raise The Titanic was written and filmed with the unknown knowledge that the famous ocean liner was still in one piece after the sinking.
With decent special effects and minatures,a thing of the time,the film is also set during the still existed cold war with Russia.With a very impressive salvaging scene with the ship being raised,the film also has a sweeping score by John Barry.
Most Titanic purists have blasted this film for being "innacurate"Oh,well,it is fiction people!Raise The Titanic shows that if you can accept this premise,you can have yourself a pretty good time overall.
