16. Ship of Fools (1965)
Peasants, artistic entertainers and Nazi eugenicists interact on a ocean liner traveling from North America to the Continent in 1933. The director's large-scale film features a legendary actress, in her swan song, as a unhappy separated woman, but it's another actor, as the ship's doctor, and a talented performer, as a aristocratic rebel, who provide the film with its emotional wallop.
15. Ultimate Trip (1960)

Two lead actors act as a husband and wife trying to get over the pain of their child's passing by taking their yacht for a trip in the sea, where they recover Billy Zane from a foundering ship.

11. Juggernaut (1974)
This filmmaker gives his suspense story a social commentary perspective in this tension-filled yarn of detonators positioned on a passenger ship, the main setting. What's the correct choice? Richard Harris act as explosive technicians; Roy Kinnear, as the cruise director, provides a heartbreaking depiction in tragicomic desperation.
10. Poseidon's Journey (1972)
This film version of Paul Gallico's literary work is one of the peaks of the era of disaster movies. The SS Poseidon is flipped over by a ocean surge, and it's the responsibility of Reverend Gene Hackman to guide his group through the flipped hull to rescue. Shelley Winters is memorable as a shopkeeper's wife with a useful history of competitive swimming.
9. Total Loss (2013)
Robert Redford provides a experienced exemplary performance in single character portrayal as a person struggling to stay alive in the specific sea after his yacht, the fictional ship, is impaired in a collision with an stray transport unit. It's stressful enough to observe, so it's difficult to comprehend how physically gruelling it must have been for the senior performer to record.
8. Vessel Leader (2013)
The main star provides excellent performance in among his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure performances, as the captain of an commercial transport seized by Somali pirates off the specific location. He's matched by Barkhad Abdi ("Now I'm in charge"), making a outstanding film debut as the pirate chief in the director's tense movie, based on true stories. If the concluding moment fails to move you, you have no heart.
7. Geometric Shape (2009)
