15. Final Journey (1960)

14. Nile Killing (1978)
Angela Lansbury are part of the killing culprits on board a Nile paddle steamer in this all-star mystery writer murder mystery.

13. Ocean Stillness (1989)
Sam Neill play a partners trying to get over the pain of their son's death by sailing their boat for a journey in the Pacific, where they rescue Billy Zane from a sinking schooner. Poor decision!

The central vessel is overturned by a tidal wave, and it's up to the lead character to lead his flock through the inverted vessel to security.

9. Everything's Gone (2013)
The lead actor provides a experienced exemplary performance in single character portrayal as a individual battling to endure in the specific sea after his sailing vessel, the main setting, is impaired in a impact with an errant shipping container. It's nerve-wracking enough to view, so it's difficult to comprehend how extremely demanding it must have been for the senior performer to film.
8. Captain Phillips (2013)
Tom Hanks provides outstanding acting in among his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure characters, as the skipper of an commercial transport hijacked by maritime criminals off the geographical area. He's matched by a co-star ("Now I'm in charge"), making a remarkable film debut as the criminal boss in the director's tense movie, inspired by true stories. When the last scene doesn't bring tears, you're emotionally detached.
7. Three-Sided Figure (2009)
