The director's futuristic scarefest follows a group of memorable ensemble cast acting as soldiers of fortune employed to demolish the cruise ship the main setting. Yet a giant mutant octopus has got there first! Featuring the likely victims are Famke Janssen as a gem smuggler.
A infant, abandoned on the passenger vessel the central location, matures to be a talented keyboardist (the lead actor) who never steps off the vessel. The climax of Giuseppe Tornatore's fantastical tale is the main character battling a musical showdown with a historical figure, rather unfairly shown as a arrogant character.
The lead actor acts as a warrior-esque nomad with mutated appendages and a enhanced sailing vessel in this high-cost futuristic thriller, set in a future where melting polar ice-caps have inundated the Earth. The entire population is seeking mythical Dryland while fending off Dennis Hopper and his group of chain-smoking raiders.
Two hours of romantic interludes between a posh chick (the female lead) and an free-spirited artist (the male lead) are rescued by this filmmaker's spectacular recreation of one the 20th century's most infamous catastrophes. One must appreciate the audacity of a film-maker who artfully converts a death toll of over a thousand into an heartening narrative of liberation.
Commoners, artistic entertainers and Nazi eugenicists rub shoulders on a commercial vessel sailing from Latin America to the Old World in the interwar period. This filmmaker's epic features a legendary actress, in her final role, as a melancholy character, but it's Oskar Werner, as the ship's doctor, and Simone Signoret, as a radical countess, who provide the motion picture with its emotional wallop.
The USS Claridon is torn asunder in an blast and the lead actor's partner (Dorothy Malone) is stranded in their room in this intense precursor to disaster movies. Will the main character and a brave technician (the actor) rescue her before the vessel goes down? Interesting note: the Claridon is embodied by the famous historic ship a real ship.
Angela Lansbury are including the killing culprits on board a Nile paddle steamer in this ensemble cast Agatha Christie whodunit. The main star, as the famous detective, cannot prevent numerous characters being shot, which narrows his potential killers to a limited selection. Bags more fun than the modern adaptation.
Nicole Kidman act as a husband and wife trying to get over the pain of their son's death by sailing their boat for a trip in the Pacific, where they save a co-star from a foundering ship. Poor decision! This filmmaker's suspense film is basically a horror film at sea, but an high-quality one that launched her career.
An Englishman, moving goods for an American industrialist, is deceived into employing a poor condition "type of boat" in the director's harsh UK production in the unconventional style of his own previous work. Of course, the ship's Scottish captain and crew trick the main characters for a trip, in multiple interpretations of the expression.
The director gives his catastrophe film a political dimension angle in this nerve-shredding tale of explosives positioned on a luxury liner, the main setting. Which wire to cut? David Hemmings act as explosive technicians; another actor, as the vessel's activities coordinator, serves up a touching depiction in sadly funny despair.
This film version of the author's literary work is among the zenith of the 1970s disaster genre. The central vessel is flipped over by a ocean surge, and it's the job of the lead character to direct his flock through the inverted ship to rescue. Shelley Winters is remarkable as a retailer's spouse with a handy background of athletic swimming.
Robert Redford gives a late-career exemplary performance in solo performance as a man struggling to endure in the specific sea after his sailing vessel, the Virginia Jean, is impaired in a impact with an errant shipping container. It's stressful enough to watch, so one can only imagine how extremely demanding it must have been for the senior performer to film.
Tom Hanks provides excellent performance in one of his ordinary-person-in-extraordinary-circumstances performances, as the captain of an American cargo ship seized by Somali pirates off the Horn of Africa. He has great chemistry by a co-star ("I'm the captain now"), making a outstanding initial cinematic appearance as the pirate chief in this filmmaker's suspense film, derived from actual incidents. If the concluding moment fails to move you, you're not human.
