You Might Want a More Substantial Ship: Top 20 Greatest Motion Pictures Located on the Ocean – Listed!

20. Ocean Terror (1998)

Stephen Sommers' science fiction thriller chronicles a collection of scene-stealing supporting players acting as mercenaries hired to demolish the passenger vessel Argonautica. But a enormous cephalopod has got there first! Featuring the potential cephalopod fodder are Treat Williams as a jewel thief.

19. The Legend of 1900 (1998)

A newborn, left on the transatlantic liner the central location, develops to be a talented keyboardist (the lead actor) who remains aboard the boat. The highlight of the director's fantastical tale is the main character competing in a keyboard contest with a historical figure, rather unfairly portrayed as a smug bastard.

18. Ocean Planet (1995)

The lead actor portrays a warrior-esque nomad with webbed feet and a modified watercraft in this big-budget futuristic thriller, taking place in a distant time where melting polar ice-caps have flooded the Earth. Everyone is hunting for mythical Dryland while fending off the antagonist and his band of chain-smoking pirates.

17. The Titanic (1997)

A significant portion of tiresome canoodling between a wealthy lady (the actress) and an free-spirited artist (the actor) are saved by this filmmaker's breathtaking depiction of one the 20th century's well-known tragedies. You have to admire the chutzpah of a director who artfully converts a casualties of 1,500 into an inspiring narrative of liberation.

16. Vessel of Madness (1965)

Peasants, flamenco dancers and Nazi eugenicists mingle on a commercial vessel traveling from Latin America to the Continent in 1933. The director's sweeping drama features a legendary actress, in her final role, as a unhappy separated woman, but it's another actor, as the ship's doctor, and Simone Signoret, as a aristocratic rebel, who provide the movie with its powerful impact.

15. Final Journey (1960)

The USS Claridon is torn asunder in an blast and the protagonist's spouse (the co-star) is stuck in their room in this compelling proto-disaster pic. Can Stack and a heroic engineer (the supporting player) save her before the ship sinks? Interesting note: the Claridon is played by the renowned historic ship Île de France.

14. Death on the Nile (1978)

Bette Davis are part of the murder suspects on board a Egyptian riverboat in this ensemble cast Agatha Christie murder mystery. Peter Ustinov, as the famous detective, cannot prevent half the cast being killed, which narrows his persons of interest to a limited selection. Much more enjoyable than the modern adaptation.

13. Ocean Stillness (1989)

Nicole Kidman portray a partners attempting to recover from the grief of their son's death by sailing their boat for a spin in the Pacific, where they recover another actor from a damaged vessel. Poor decision! The director's suspense film is fundamentally a horror film at on the ocean, but an exceptionally well-made one that put Kidman on the map.

12. The Maggie Story (1954)

An Englishman, transporting goods for an US businessman, is tricked into hiring a dilapidated "type of boat" in the director's brutal UK production in the unconventional style of his own earlier film. Of course, the vessel's UK commander and team take the two landlubbers for a journey, in every meaning of the word.

11. Unstoppable Force (1974)

This filmmaker gives his suspense story a state-of-the-nation tilt in this anxiety-inducing tale of bombs planted on a luxury liner, the main setting. What's the correct choice? David Hemmings play explosive technicians; a supporting player, as the cruise director, provides a heartbreaking portrayal in humorous tragedy.

10. Poseidon's Journey (1972)

This cinematic interpretation of this writer's novel is one of the zenith of the era of disaster movies. The fictional ship is overturned by a tsunami, and it's the job of the main protagonist to guide his flock through the inverted ship to safety. Shelley Winters is memorable as a shopkeeper's wife with a handy background of competitive swimming.

9. Total Loss (2013)

Robert Redford gives a experienced brilliant acting in one-man show as a individual struggling to endure in the Indian Ocean after his personal boat, the Virginia Jean, is harmed in a crash with an lost cargo box. It's anxious enough to view, so it's difficult to comprehend how physically gruelling it must have been for the 76-year-old star to film.

8. Ship Commander (2013)

The main star provides outstanding acting in among his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure roles, as the skipper of an commercial transport commandeered by Somali pirates off the geographical area. He's matched by a co-star ("I control this vessel"), making a remarkable initial cinematic appearance as the criminal boss in this filmmaker's thriller, derived from actual incidents. If the last scene fails to move you, you're emotionally detached.

7. Triangle (2009)

{Freak weather conditions|
