19. 1900's Tale (1998)

A baby, left on the passenger vessel SS Virginian, develops to be a talented keyboardist (the lead actor) who remains aboard the ship. The peak moment of Giuseppe Tornatore's whimsical hokum is the protagonist fighting a musical showdown with a historical figure, somewhat unjustly shown as a smug bastard.

Kevin Costner portrays a warrior-esque nomad with webbed feet and a enhanced sailing vessel in this big-budget futuristic thriller, taking place in a future where vanishing ice sheets have submerged the world. All people is searching for fabled solid ground while fending off the antagonist and his group of constantly puffing pirates.

15. Final Journey (1960)

The central vessel is torn asunder in an blast and the lead actor's partner (the actress) is trapped in their cabin in this intense proto-disaster pic. Will Stack and a heroic engineer (the supporting player) rescue her ahead of the vessel goes down? Curious detail: the main setting is represented by the renowned European vessel a real ship.

14. Death on the Nile (1978)

Two legendary actresses are including the homicide possibilities on board a Egyptian riverboat in this celebrity-filled Agatha Christie detective story.

13. Ocean Stillness (1989)

Two lead actors act as a married couple attempting to recover from the pain of their child's passing by venturing on their vessel for a trip in the Pacific, where they rescue Billy Zane from a sinking schooner. Poor decision! The director's tense movie is fundamentally a slasher movie at sea, but an high-quality one that put Kidman on the map.

12. Maggie's Tale (1954)

An Englishman, transporting furniture for an American industrialist, is tricked into hiring a poor condition "Scottish vessel" in the director's brutal British film in the rebellious vein of his own previous work.

11. Juggernaut (1974)

Richard Lester provides his disaster thriller a political dimension perspective in this nerve-shredding yarn of detonators planted on a luxury liner, the main setting. Red wire or blue wire? Richard Harris play explosive technicians; a supporting player, as the ship's entertainments director, provides a heartbreaking study in sadly funny despair.

10. Poseidon's Journey (1972)

This adaptation of Paul Gallico's literary work is part of the peaks of the 1970s disaster genre. The fictional ship is flipped over by a ocean surge, and it's the job of the lead character to direct his group through the upturned hull to safety. the actress is memorable as a small business owner's partner with a practical history of competitive swimming.

9. Total Loss (2013)

The lead actor provides a late-career exemplary performance in solo performance as a person battling to endure in the specific sea after his yacht, the fictional ship, is harmed in a crash with an errant shipping container. It's nerve-wracking enough to view, so heaven knows how exceptionally strenuous it must have been for the 76-year-old star to film.

8. Ship Commander (2013)

The lead actor does outstanding acting in one of his ordinary-person-in-extraordinary-circumstances roles, as the skipper of an commercial transport commandeered by maritime criminals off the specific location. He has great chemistry by Barkhad Abdi ("I control this vessel"), delivering a outstanding first movie role as the criminal boss in this filmmaker's thriller, derived from actual incidents. Should the concluding moment doesn't bring tears, you're not human.

7. Geometric Shape (2009)
