I've seldom seen such a boring piece of drivel. The dialogue is corny, the chemistry between DiCaprio and Winslet is non-existent, the story is clichéd, the characters are cardboard cut-outs, every emotion the characters display are ridiculously over-acted, half of the time they're just yelling instead of acting, and after half an hour you just don't care anymore what happens.
