It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

It would seem from the reviews to date That "Britannic" is either a movie you love or hate. I thought it was superb. In fact, it's hard to believe that such an elaborate production was designed for television. Admittedly, I watched it on DVD and it's quite possible that if I had been forced to watch its action undercut by television commercials, I would not be nearly so enthusiastic. I hate commercials and for that reason, have not watched any movies on TV for at least twenty years.For me, all aspects of this movie were one hundred per cent entertaining. Perhaps I should say "gripping" rather than entertaining. The acting from all concerned, but especially the stars, Jacqueline Bisset, Edward Atterton, John Rhys-Davies, Amanda Ryan and Bruce Payne, I would rate as absolutely perfect. The same goes for all the technical credits, especially the inspired direction, superb photography and gripping special effects.

While this is an obvious made-for-TV follow up to Titanic (Cameron) it does draw attention to a signficant shipwreck that has been largely forgotten.Bollards relatively recent expedition has shown that the ship was sunk by torpedo's as shown, but sunk because the portholes were open and the bulkhead doors were not closed.It is indeed fortunate that it happened on an inwards transit because on an outwards one the loss of life would have been enormous.Yet again we have intrigue and romance fictionally built into a disaster movie but the truth of the matter is that the sinking of Britannic was an act of war with minimal loss of life. With what had happened in Galipoli and the Western Front it was hardly newsworthy.The movie for all its slights of hand might have just made its sinking more noteworthy than has otherwise been the case.

LOL.Some of the previous "reviewers" seem to have forgotten that this TV Movie wasn't intended to be a history class!If you're looking for a documentary on the Britannic this isn't it.If you're looking for a well acted,entertaining hour and half than you might like this movie.I do agree with the person who mentioned the cheesy special effects and some of the cringe-inducing dialoge.

Jacqueline Bisset a once and still magnificently beautiful and talented actress is regrettably the most notorious name in the cast. It is so unfortunate that she allowed herself to become a part of its ensemble since the film has little, if any, value at all. As can be expected, the film attempted to ride on the coattails of the enormously successful, Titanic, but fell far short of its expectations. Most importantly, it is not historically correct. The same argument could be made regarding Titanic, as the characters were fictional. However, in the case of The Brittanic, not only are the characters fictious, so is the plot. In addition, the rating is decidedly incorrect, as the film is full of violence and should have received an R rating for its violence alone. I surely regret having to pan a film starring Ms. Bisset. However this film does not deserve to have been distributed and certainly not under the guise under which it was. Hopefully, having received as little publicity as it did, it will not reach a much larger audience than it has to date.
