Sam Neill play a partners attempting to recover from the pain of their son's death by venturing on their vessel for a journey in the Pacific, where they recover Billy Zane from a sinking schooner.

11. Overwhelming Power (1974)

Richard Lester provides his catastrophe film a state-of-the-nation angle in this nerve-shredding story of bombs planted on a passenger ship, the main setting. What's the correct choice? Richard Harris act as bomb disposal experts; a supporting player, as the cruise director, delivers a emotional study in humorous tragedy.

The SS Poseidon is overturned by a ocean surge, and it's the job of the lead character to direct his group through the upturned vessel to rescue.

9. Total Loss (2013)

The main star gives a experienced masterclass in one-man show as a person battling to endure in the specific sea after his personal boat, the main setting, is impaired in a impact with an errant cargo box. It's anxious enough to observe, so one can only imagine how extremely demanding it must have been for the elderly actor to film.

8. Captain Phillips (2013)

Tom Hanks provides excellent performance in one of his ordinary-person-in-extraordinary-circumstances roles, as the commander of an American cargo ship commandeered by African raiders off the specific location. His performance is complemented by a co-star ("I'm the captain now"), delivering a sensational first movie role as the criminal boss in the director's suspense film, inspired by real events. Should the concluding moment doesn't make you blub, you're emotionally detached.
