The director's sweeping drama features a legendary actress, in her swan song, as a melancholy character, but it's another actor, as the medical officer, and Simone Signoret, as a aristocratic rebel, who provide the movie with its emotional wallop.
15. The Last Voyage (1960)
The USS Claridon is ripped apart in an explosion and the protagonist's spouse (the co-star) is stuck in their room in this compelling precursor to disaster movies. Can the hero and a brave technician (Woody Strode) rescue her before the vessel goes down? Curious detail: the Claridon is embodied by the renowned historic ship รle de France.

Two legendary actresses are among the homicide possibilities on board a Egyptian riverboat in this all-star mystery writer whodunit. Peter Ustinov, as Hercule Poirot, fails to stop half the cast being stabbed, which narrows his potential killers to a smaller group. Bags more fun than the modern adaptation.
13. Dead Calm (1989)
Sam Neill play a partners trying to get over the pain of their offspring's demise by taking their yacht for a spin in the ocean, where they recover another actor from a sinking schooner. Poor decision! The director's thriller is basically a killers-on-the-loose story at on the ocean, but an exceptionally well-made one that made her famous.
12. The Maggie (1954)
An British man, transporting items for an wealthy entrepreneur, is manipulated into using a poor condition "type of boat" in this filmmaker's dark UK production in the subversive style of his own Whisky Galore!.

11. Juggernaut (1974)
This filmmaker gives his disaster thriller a social commentary angle in this tension-filled yarn of detonators placed on a passenger ship, the fictional ship. Which wire to cut? Richard Harris act as explosive technicians; Roy Kinnear, as the cruise director, delivers a heartbreaking portrayal in sadly funny despair.
10. The Poseidon Adventure (1972)
This cinematic interpretation of this writer's literary work is part of the high points of the 1970s disaster genre. The central vessel is capsized by a tsunami, and it's the job of Reverend Gene Hackman to lead his group through the flipped vessel to rescue. a supporting player is unforgettable as a shopkeeper's wife with a handy experience of athletic swimming.
9. Total Loss (2013)
Robert Redford gives a experienced brilliant acting in solo performance as a man fighting to survive in the Indian Ocean after his sailing vessel, the fictional ship, is damaged in a impact with an lost transport unit. It's nerve-wracking enough to observe, so heaven knows how extremely demanding it must have been for the 76-year-old star to shoot.
8. Captain Phillips (2013)
The main star provides excellent performance in among his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure characters, as the captain of an US merchant vessel hijacked by Somali pirates off the geographical area. His performance is complemented by a co-star ("I'm the captain now"), delivering a remarkable film debut as the raider leader in Paul Greengrass's tense movie, derived from true stories. When the final sequence fails to move you, you're emotionally detached.
7. Geometric Shape (2009)
