    Ghost Of The Abyss was the best Titanic documentary I have seen In a long time and Im very happy that James Camron put this together so people can see the Titanic up close and personal the Titanic may be desceased and sitting on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean the Titanic's legend and legacy will live on forever...

    Loved it! Really liked having a civilians (Bill Paxton) point of view in comparison to the scientists. It made me almost feel like I was there too seeing his reactions!

    Very good visual effects that make the documentary much more interesting.

    I can never get enough of the "Titanic" but having Bill Paxton due the narration was a mistake. He comes across as "Gober" who is taking a stroll through Marine World. There should have more quiet time throughout the movie.

    An enthralling 3-D IMAX documentary.

    For all the technical wizardry that went into making the film, Paxton's reflections on the human tragedies of the Titanic and the terrorist attack of Sept. 11th, 2001, which took place while the crew was out at sea, provide one of the film's most haunting moments.

    The more you know about the 1912 tragedy, the more you will appreciate the sights of Ghosts of the Abyss.
