Academy Award® winning director and master storyteller James Cameron journeys back to the site of his greatest inspiration, the legendary wreck of the Titanic. With a team of the world's foremost historic and marine experts and friend, Bill Paxton, he embarks on an unscripted adventure back to the final grave where nearly 1,500 people lost their lives almost a century ago. Using state-of-the-art technology developed expressly for this expedition, Cameron and his crew are able to explore virtually all of the ship, inside and out, as never before. With the most advanced 3D photography, moviegoers will experience the ship as if they are part of the crew right inside the dive subs. In this unprecedented motion picture event, made especially for IMAX 3D Theatres and specially outfitted 35mm 3D theaters across the country, Cameron and his crew bring audiences to sights not seen since the sinking 91 years ago and explore why the landmark vessel, more than any shipwreck, continues to intrigue and fascinate the public.
Leave your thoughts about Ghosts of the Abyss.
| Arizona RepublicRichard NilsenA pedestrian film by a hack director that is still worth seeing for the fascination of its subject matter. |
| Boston GlobeTy BurrIt's a unique trip that flirts with hokeyness at the surface but that grows more compelling, awe-inspiring, and tragic the deeper you go. |
| Milwaukee Journal SentinelJackie LoohauisUsing breakthrough digital 3-D, Cameron injects enough magic to make a film that appeals to both geeks and Titanic romantics. |
| Chicago ReaderJ.R. JonesThe experience couldn't be more realistic, though Cameron also superimposes imagery of passengers recalling the fateful night, to haunting effect. |
| Decent Films GuideSteven D. GreydanusIf you see only one James Cameron-directed movie about theTitanic -and you should - see the one that doesn't star Kate and Leo. |
| MovieFreak.comSara Michelle FettersGranted, if I'd made a film that grossed more than $600 million in the U.S. and walked away with 11 Academy Awards, I'd probably be a bit slow on the upbeat myself. |
| Rolling StonePeter TraversDespite over-ripe narration and an understandable urge to cram too much in, Ghosts of the Abyss is a thrilling documentary. |
| VarietyRobert KoehlerThough quite routine on the logistics of deep-sea exploring, pic develops a visual style as it replays the events of the sinking that some viewers may find more visually exciting and satisfying than what Cameron staged in his original mega-blockbuster. |
| Fat Guys at the MoviesKevin CarrPart of what makes this film a must-see for Titanic fans is that it truly puts you closer to the wreckage than anyone else can get. |
| Dallas Morning NewsPhilip WuntchIt explores the remains of the marathon ship with such intimacy that you expect all the characters in [Titanic's] ethereal final scene to suddenly appear and offer handshakes. |
