Titanic gets a good rating:

With a little research of historical accounts, we were able to confirm the somewhat gentle sinking rate. Chief Baker Charles Joughin was clinging to the railing on the stern (just like the hero and heroine of the movie) when it sank. He stepped off into the water without getting his head wet. Apparently, he was stone drunk at the time, which was widely credited for his survival in the frigid water before being picked up by a lifeboat. So much for the dramatic heart-rending scene where DiCaprio and Winslet were sucked under and torn apart from each other.
