16. Ship of Fools (1965)
Peasants, flamenco dancers and German ideologists rub shoulders on a passenger ship journeying from Mexico to the Old World in 1933. The director's sweeping drama includes a cinema icon, in her final role, as a sad divorcee, but it's another actor, as the medical officer, and Simone Signoret, as a aristocratic rebel, who provide the film with its powerful impact.
15. Final Journey (1960)

Angela Lansbury are part of the killing culprits on board a Egyptian riverboat in this ensemble cast crime novelist whodunit.

13. Dead Calm (1989)
Nicole Kidman act as a husband and wife trying to get over the grief of their offspring's demise by taking their yacht for a journey in the Pacific, where they save a co-star from a foundering ship. Poor decision! Phillip Noyce's thriller is essentially a horror film at on the ocean, but an ultra-classy one that put Kidman on the map.
12. Maggie's Tale (1954)
An Englishman, moving goods for an wealthy entrepreneur, is deceived into employing a poor condition "Scottish vessel" in the director's harsh UK production in the subversive vein of his own previous work.

11. Juggernaut (1974)
Richard Lester gives his suspense story a political dimension tilt in this tension-filled tale of explosives planted on a luxury liner, the main setting. Which wire to cut? Richard Harris act as demolition specialists; another actor, as the vessel's activities coordinator, serves up a heartbreaking depiction in tragicomic desperation.
10. The Poseidon Adventure (1972)
This adaptation of Paul Gallico's book is one of the high points of the seventies catastrophe films. The central vessel is flipped over by a ocean surge, and it's the responsibility of the main protagonist to guide his followers through the upturned hull to security. Shelley Winters is memorable as a retailer's spouse with a practical history of sports participation.
9. All is Lost (2013)
The main star delivers a mature masterclass in solo performance as a individual battling to stay alive in the maritime location after his yacht, the main setting, is impaired in a impact with an errant cargo box. It's stressful enough to observe, so one can only imagine how extremely demanding it must have been for the 76-year-old star to record.
8. Ship Commander (2013)
Tom Hanks provides sterling work in part of his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure roles, as the commander of an commercial transport commandeered by African raiders off the geographical area. He has great chemistry by Barkhad Abdi ("Now I'm in charge"), delivering a sensational first movie role as the raider leader in the director's suspense film, derived from true stories. If the last scene doesn't bring tears, you have no heart.
7. Triangle (2009)
