Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times [Titanica] is based largely on footage filmed at the Titanic's grave. Seen on the giant, five-story, curving Omnimax screen of the Museum of Science and Industry, it is a sight to inspire awe. Rated: 3.5/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall not quite enough actual Titanic Rated: 2/5 Jun 6, 2006 Full Review Gerry Shamray Your Movies (cleveland.com) Rated: 3/5 Aug 9, 2002 Full Review Jeffrey Westhoff Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) Given the subject, this documentary is stunningly boring.

Audience Member I enjoyed this chilling underwater footage of the Titanic wreckage; but found the documentary lacking in detail. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Effective documentary on the Titanic disaster filmed in IMAX, I saw this originally when released, and enjoyed it thoroughly and thought it offered a different look at the famous shipwreck, which sank on April 14th, 1912. The Titanic disaster has interested many, and many documentaries have been filmed on the subject, but with Titanica, we get something more, a high definition look at the wreck, with very good narration by actor Leonard Nimoy. This is a must watch for viewers that are interested in the disaster and want to know more about the 1991 expedition to the wreck site. Brilliantly captured on film, this is one of the finest documentaries on the subject, only matched by Ghosts of the Abyss. Titanica is short and to the point, and thoroughly engaging from the first frame onwards. The way it's filmed is stunning, and you get a terrific and unique look of the wreck. Well worth checking out if you're interested in the subject. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member The importance of this film is the testimony of two survivors In their own voice. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Saw this in an IMAX theater. I love Titanic movies and things but this was really boring and very gloomy. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This has to be one of the worst documentaries I've ever seen! Boring, visually dull and featuring a Russian you can't understand, this film (if it even is one) is absolutely awful! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member 3 - The IMAX film promises more than it actually delivers as underwater shots of the Titanic often seem murky and poorly angled. Accounts of the fight for survival are interesting, as is the historical footage that accompanies them, but talking heads and above surface footage of the modern research vessel are meh. As typical of IMAX documentaries, depth is lacking., Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
