You would use inverted commas, also known as quotation marks.
I went to see "Star Wars" before you were even born.
My favorite Spielberg film is probably "Schindler's List."
Hope that helps!

I don't see why you would need parentheses.unless the title had an alternative. A normal title would have Capital letters for each word, and possibly a full stop at the end.
Example : Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Title using parentheses: (fictional)
Seven Ways to Rob a Bank (And Not Get Caught)
Hope this helps.
