19. The Legend of 1900 (1998)

A infant, abandoned on the ocean-going ship the central location, develops to be a accomplished musician (the main star) who remains aboard the ship. The peak moment of Giuseppe Tornatore's imaginative story is the main character battling a keyboard contest with Jelly Roll Morton, somewhat unjustly shown as a overconfident individual.

18. Ocean Planet (1995)

Kevin Costner portrays a warrior-esque nomad with aquatic adaptations and a modified sailing vessel in this big-budget futuristic thriller, located in a distant time where vanishing ice sheets have submerged the Earth.

16. Boat of Lunatics (1965)

Working-class people, Spanish performers and political extremists interact on a commercial vessel traveling from Latin America to Europe in the pre-war era. The director's large-scale film features a legendary actress, in her final role, as a melancholy character, but it's Oskar Werner, as the medical officer, and another cast member, as a radical countess, who provide the movie with its dramatic punch.

15. Final Journey (1960)

The fictional ship is ripped apart in an blast and Robert Stack's spouse (the actress) is stranded in their cabin in this gripping proto-disaster pic.

14. Murder on the Nile (1978)

Angela Lansbury are including the murder suspects on board a African vessel in this celebrity-filled mystery writer murder mystery. The main star, as the Belgian sleuth, cannot prevent several passengers being stabbed, which reduces his suspects to a limited selection. Much more enjoyable than the 2022 remake.

13. Dead Calm (1989)

Nicole Kidman play a husband and wife seeking to heal from the pain of their son's death by venturing on their vessel for a journey in the ocean, where they recover another actor from a sinking schooner. Costly error! Phillip Noyce's suspense film is basically a killers-on-the-loose story at sea, but an exceptionally well-made one that put Kidman on the map.

12. The Maggie Story (1954)

An Englishman, transporting goods for an wealthy entrepreneur, is manipulated into hiring a run-down "type of boat" in the director's harsh Ealing comedy in the subversive tradition of his own previous work.

11. Overwhelming Power (1974)

Richard Lester provides his disaster thriller a state-of-the-nation angle in this tension-filled tale of detonators planted on a passenger ship, the fictional ship. Red wire or blue wire?

The SS Poseidon is flipped over by a ocean surge, and it's the job of Reverend Gene Hackman to direct his flock through the inverted ship to safety. Shelley Winters is unforgettable as a shopkeeper's wife with a useful history of sports participation.

9. Total Loss (2013)

The main star delivers a experienced brilliant acting in one-man show as a individual struggling to stay alive in the Indian Ocean after his yacht, the main setting, is impaired in a collision with an lost shipping container. It's anxious enough to watch, so it's difficult to comprehend how physically gruelling it must have been for the 76-year-old star to film.

8. Vessel Leader (2013)

Tom Hanks provides excellent performance in one of his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure performances, as the skipper of an US merchant vessel commandeered by Somali pirates off the geographical area. His performance is complemented by a co-star ("I control this vessel"), making a remarkable initial cinematic appearance as the raider leader in the director's tense movie, based on actual incidents. If the last scene fails to move you, you're emotionally detached.

7. Three-Sided Figure (2009)

{Freak weather conditions|
