All this miniseries does is to show the James Cameron version in a better light.
This mini is terribly written. It tries to be original by showing the same time line from different perspectives 4 times. But it just causes confusion and doesn't allow the viewer to get interested in any of the characters by breaking the narrative up into a big mess. When they try to put it together it's just too broken up to succeed.
Acting The acting is actually quite earnest but it's wasted with such a terrible screenplay. The lesser known cast tries so hard it's just so sad. The background stories of the characters can't be told properly in such a fragmented way.
Production Didn't expect that much for a TV mini but it did feel cheap. It didn't feel like a ship at all. It felt like a sound stage. The sinking was dark and rather small scale.
Do yourself a favor and skip this terrible and irritating dud.
