Peasants, artistic entertainers and Nazi eugenicists interact on a commercial vessel journeying from Latin America to Europe in the interwar period. This filmmaker's large-scale film includes a cinema icon, in her final role, as a unhappy separated woman, but it's another actor, as the medical officer, and a talented performer, as a aristocratic rebel, who deliver the film with its emotional wallop.
15. The Last Voyage (1960)
The central vessel is torn asunder in an explosion and the protagonist's partner (the co-star) is stuck in their cabin in this compelling early catastrophe film. Can the main character and a heroic engineer (Woody Strode) rescue her ahead of the boat submerges? Interesting note: the Claridon is represented by the famous historic ship a real ship.
14. Death on the Nile (1978)
Two legendary actresses are among the murder suspects on board a Nile paddle steamer in this ensemble cast Agatha Christie murder mystery. The lead actor, as the Belgian sleuth, fails to stop half the cast being killed, which narrows his potential killers to a manageable number. Bags more fun than the recent version.
13. Sea Silence (1989)
Nicole Kidman play a husband and wife trying to get over the pain of their son's death by venturing on their vessel for a spin in the ocean, where they save a co-star from a foundering ship.

11. Unstoppable Force (1974)
Richard Lester provides his catastrophe film a social commentary angle in this nerve-shredding tale of detonators placed on a passenger ship, the main setting. Red wire or blue wire? Two lead actors act as bomb disposal experts; another actor, as the cruise director, provides a emotional study in sadly funny despair.
10. Ocean Disaster (1972)
This cinematic interpretation of Paul Gallico's book is one of the peaks of the seventies catastrophe films. The central vessel is overturned by a tsunami, and it's the responsibility of Reverend Gene Hackman to lead his followers through the inverted ship to rescue. Shelley Winters is memorable as a shopkeeper's wife with a handy experience of athletic swimming.
9. Total Loss (2013)
Robert Redford delivers a late-career exemplary performance in one-man show as a man fighting to survive in the maritime location after his sailing vessel, the fictional ship, is damaged in a collision with an errant transport unit. It's anxious enough to observe, so one can only imagine 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 part of his everyman-in-crisis performances, as the skipper of an American cargo ship hijacked by Somali pirates off the specific location. His performance is complemented by another actor ("I'm the captain now"), making a remarkable film debut as the pirate chief in this filmmaker's thriller, inspired by true stories. When the concluding moment doesn't make you blub, you're not human.
7. Geometric Shape (2009)
{Freak weather conditions|
