Disappointing documentary for me.....some nice footage of the wreck, but not really enough background detail to keep me interested. Some (seemingly) very contrived scenes - mostly featuring Bill Paxton, and an overlong segment dealing with the malfunction of James Cameron's toys, (the cameras). Really didn't "float my boat"......(sorry...)

Enlightening documentary with some stunning visuals. It's amazing to watch Cameron pointing out details on the ship; it goes to show he's not as successful as he is for no reason.

Badly filmed, poorly narrated. What a waste of what could have been great.

The images are impressive considering the technical difficulty. But everything is downplayed by the wrong tone of the film, which is more like a dvd extra than a documentary. Imagine what Werner Herzog would have produced with these images.

I haven't seen Cameron's Titanic. So its good option to watch Cameron's documentary about Titanic. Documentary is done very well and is truly powerful historic lesson.

This documentary is kind of a mixed bag. It's both about the Titanic as well as the exploration of the wreck itself, but it kind of leaves you wanting for more details on both. I really love Bill Paxton and he was great to have here, balancing the scientists and researchers. Also fully appreciate naming the robots Jake and Elwood. In the end, it feels like it's just really scratching the surface and that was the vibe I was left with.
