You Might Want a Bigger Boat: The 20 Best Motion Pictures Located on the Ocean – Ranked!
20. Ocean Terror (1998)
This filmmaker's futuristic scarefest details a group of attention-grabbing ensemble cast playing hired guns contracted to demolish the cruise ship a fictional ship. Yet a massive sea creature has already arrived! Among the likely victims are Kevin J O'Connor as a diamond criminal.
19. The 1900 Story (1998)
A baby, left on the transatlantic liner a fictional ship, develops to be a talented keyboardist (the main star) who never steps off the ship. The climax of Giuseppe Tornatore's imaginative story is Roth fighting a musical showdown with Jelly Roll Morton, arguably inaccurately depicted as a arrogant character.
18. Ocean Planet (1995)
The main star plays a samurai-like drifter with mutated appendages and a enhanced trimaran in this megabudget science fiction adventure, located in a later era where melting polar ice-caps have inundated the planet. All people is seeking mythical Dryland while resisting the villain and his group of chain-smoking raiders.
17. Titanic (1997)
A significant portion of tiresome canoodling between a wealthy lady (the female lead) and an itinerant yobbo (Leonardo DiCaprio) are rescued by this filmmaker's breathtaking depiction of among history's well-known tragedies. You have to admire the audacity of a cinematic artist who successfully transforms a casualties of 1,500 into an heartening narrative of liberation.
16. Vessel of Madness (1965)
Working-class people, flamenco dancers and German ideologists interact on a ocean liner sailing from North America to the Old World in the interwar period. Stanley Kramer's epic stars a cinema icon, in her last performance, as a sad divorcee, but it's Oskar Werner, as the ship's doctor, and a talented performer, as a radical countess, who deliver the film with its powerful impact.
15. The Last Voyage (1960)
The fictional ship is torn asunder in an blast and Robert Stack's spouse (Dorothy Malone) is stranded in their quarters in this intense early catastrophe film. Is it possible for the hero and a heroic engineer (the supporting player) save her prior to the vessel goes down? Interesting note: the main setting is represented by the famous historic ship Île de France.
14. Nile Killing (1978)
Two legendary actresses are part of the murder suspects on board a African vessel in this all-star mystery writer whodunit. Peter Ustinov, as the famous detective, cannot prevent several passengers being killed, which whittles down his persons of interest to a manageable number. Bags more fun than the recent version.
13. Ocean Stillness (1989)
Two lead actors play a husband and wife seeking to heal from the trauma of their child's passing by sailing their boat for a journey in the Pacific, where they rescue Billy Zane from a foundering ship. Poor decision! Phillip Noyce's thriller is fundamentally a slasher movie at sea, but an exceptionally well-made one that made her famous.
12. The Maggie Story (1954)
An British man, transporting items for an American industrialist, is tricked into using a dilapidated "type of boat" in Alexander Mackendrick's dark British film in the rebellious style of his own Whisky Galore!. Naturally, the boat's Scottish captain and crew deceive the inexperienced passengers for a trip, in multiple interpretations of the word.
11. Unstoppable Force (1974)
This filmmaker imparts his catastrophe film a social commentary perspective in this nerve-shredding yarn of detonators placed on a luxury liner, the fictional ship. Red wire or blue wire? David Hemmings act as bomb disposal experts; Roy Kinnear, as the vessel's activities coordinator, delivers a touching depiction in sadly funny despair.
10. The Poseidon Adventure (1972)
This film version of the author's book is among the zenith of the era of disaster movies. The central vessel is flipped over by a ocean surge, and it's the responsibility of Reverend Gene Hackman to guide his followers through the flipped vessel to security. Shelley Winters is unforgettable as a retailer's spouse with a useful background of sports participation.
9. Everything's Gone (2013)
Robert Redford delivers a mature exemplary performance in single character portrayal as a person battling to endure in the specific sea after his yacht, the fictional ship, is damaged in a crash with an lost shipping container. It's anxious enough to watch, so heaven knows how physically gruelling it must have been for the 76-year-old star to film.
8. Ship Commander (2013)
Tom Hanks provides sterling work in among his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure performances, as the skipper of an US merchant vessel commandeered by maritime criminals off the geographical area. His performance is complemented by another actor ("I control this vessel"), providing a sensational film debut as the raider leader in Paul Greengrass's suspense film, inspired by actual incidents. Should the last scene doesn't make you blub, you're not human.
7. Triangle (2009)
{Freak weather conditions|
