This movie is just plain irresponsible filmmaking by an egotistical director; it's like a deep-sea adventure with a Spielberg-like emotional touch but filtered through James Cameron's unique style. If anyone doubts Cameron's humanism, make them watch "The Abyss." Every moment teeters on the edge of danger, and tough characters reveal their vulnerability and capacity for love. It's both touching and grounded, with water carrying a weight that's both terrifying and mesmerizing. I'm not entirely sure if it nails the ending (both versions have their flaws), but Cameron's personal vision makes for an honest, sometimes crazy ride. It's like James Cameron's version of "Interstellar" (clearly, Nolan is a fan); a big, emotional journey filled with technical jargon and occasional moments of beauty, driven by sheer ambition.
