This hour-long feature, edited down from 900 hours of footage, is both a technical marvel and a heartfelt memorial to those who died when the ship sank in 1912.

Cameron, who produced and directed it, does a visually splendid job, though what he has fashioned comes down to a logistical footnote to his great, primal, heart-of- the-ocean blockbuster.
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
Fresh
One of the rare Imax movies in which the 3-D effects are completely melded into the picture, rather than simply used as a gimmick.
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Rotten
Aside from his CGI ghostcraft unwittingly co-opting Pat O'Neill's last feature, Cameron is entirely predictable in a marines T-shirt, exhorting, 'Next stop, Titanic -- rock 'n' roll!'

Ghosts of the Abyss is an incredible experience that will further enhance our century-long fascination with the Titanic.
