The SS Poseidon is flipped over by a tidal wave, and it's the responsibility of the main protagonist to lead his flock through the flipped ship to rescue. the actress is remarkable as a small business owner's partner with a handy history of competitive swimming.
9. Everything's Gone (2013)
Robert Redford gives a mature brilliant acting in one-man show as a person struggling to endure in the specific sea after his sailing vessel, the Virginia Jean, is impaired in a collision with an errant transport unit. It's nerve-wracking enough to view, so it's difficult to comprehend how physically gruelling it must have been for the senior performer to shoot.
8. Ship Commander (2013)
Tom Hanks provides sterling work in among his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure roles, as the captain of an American cargo ship hijacked by African raiders off the specific location. He's matched by another actor ("Now I'm in charge"), providing a outstanding film debut as the raider leader in this filmmaker's tense movie, based on actual incidents. If the concluding moment doesn't bring tears, you're emotionally detached.
7. Triangle (2009)
