Here's why it's not crappy:
1. Highest grossing movie of all time worldwide.
2. Highest grossing movie of all time in North America.
3. Tied for the most academy award wins of all time.
4. Tied for the most academy award nominations of all time.
5. I think that about sums it up.
Plus, there is no denying the amazing cinematograpy, score, and editing.... even if you don't like some of the corny lines. Sure, Leo says "Rose!" about 200 times, but that makes for a pretty nifty drinking game.
Don't chalk this up to teenage angst. The movie was made to win an oscar. It's like Road to Perdition, they make the movie based upon what Oscar judges love.
I watch my share of romance movies. Most recently, I purchased Punch-Drunk Love today. The simple fact remains the story was just a generic love tragedy put on a famous boat. Big deal.
