Drain the Titanic

Appreciate the team that has worked on the mission. Kudos to them.

A great story which is told in a most boring way possible.

The script is so repeatetive, I would be a millionaire by the end of the movie if I had gotten a dollar every time the narrator said "drained on the ocean floor", "never seen before", drain the water" Arghh.. Gave me headache.

They are way better titanic docs out there, Boring.

The conclusion they made about when the Titanic broke up is tenuous at best. They use the 'relatively' small size of the debris field to theorize that it broke up after going underwater. That doesn't add up. If it had then the stern might have been in better condition and I don't think they would have the great sliding feature in the mud near the stern. Also ocean currents are unpredictable so you can't say for sure whether they would have carried the artifacts far away.

There is some fascinating information in this documentary, but in about 45 minutes of documentary, there are only maybe 10-15 minutes of actual content. The information is heavily punctuated by repeated panning over the model of the wreck and the animation of "draining the sea floor", which of course, doesn't really happen. The narrator breaks from his narrative every few minutes to remind us how amazing it is that we are seeing the Titanic like never before. This is hyped up with dramatic music and sweeping views of the digital model . It extremely repetitive and left me waiting anxiously for more through the entire length of the film, but "more" was never delivered. So much filler, so little true content.

I love most things on the Titanic. This is a cool doco, but stretched out to 45 minutes by repeating the same "now, as never seen before, the ocean drained away" and lots of slow dramatic statements like "and on that deadly night, when disaster struck, an iceberg, it tore a hole" like, it's really not new info. Very repetitive, lots of seen before footage, with a few cool views of CGI ship with the water drained. Kinda background TV while you're playing on your phone :/
