It premiered on SyFy on Sky Digital in the UK and Ireland on August 9 to a strongly negative critical reaction. It was released on August 24 in the United States.

Plot

On April 14, 2012, 100 years after the sinking of the RMS Titanic, a new, similar-looking luxury cruise liner named the SS Titanic II is christened. It then embarks on her maiden voyage using the same route the Titanic took 100 years before in reverse direction (from New York City, USA to Southampton, England). but whie the titanic 2 is hitting this huge storm the soul of jack dawson comes back once he finds out that rose has marrried another man he has made it his mission to find rose and bring her back her to were the titanic sunk. he will ty his best to bring rose down to the water and drown her and soon him and her will never be seporated. During the Atlantic crossing, the effects of global warming cause the Helheim glacier in Greenland to collapse, creating an 800 mph tsunami that sends an iceberg crashing into the Titanic II, while the passengers are partying on the dining saloon. The entire starboard side of the ship and the starboard lifeboat ramps are crushed and immense pressure is put on the liner's turbines. As people struggle to escape the rising waters and run for the submarine-shaped lifeboats on the port side, the turbines eventually explode, killing many people, including ship captain Will Howard. The explosion also caused an immense fire inside the sinking vessel, which is listing to its starboard side.

Minutes later, another tsunami, this one more powerful and faster than the speed of sound, caused by a second collapse of the Helheim glacier hits the liner, flipping it upside-down and drowning the people still on board and killing all the passengers in the lifeboats. With most of the ship flooded, the Titanic II finally sinks.

Cast

Production

For the film, the RMS Queen Mary was used as a stand-in for the SS Titanic II during the departure scenes and some of its interiors . The ship had previously been used as stand-ins for the fictional ship SS Poseidon in The Poseidon Adventure and the actual RMS Titanic in the 1979 TV mini-series SOS Titanic.

The film has many CGI cutaways of the ship in water, which appear very outdated and are noticeably unrealistic.
