9. All is Lost (2013)

The lead actor provides a mature brilliant acting in solo performance as a person fighting to survive in the specific sea after his personal boat, the Virginia Jean, is impaired in a impact with an lost shipping container. It's anxious enough to watch, so one can only imagine how extremely demanding it must have been for the elderly actor to shoot.

8. Ship Commander (2013)

Tom Hanks delivers excellent performance in part of his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure roles, as the skipper of an US merchant vessel seized by African raiders off the specific location. He's matched by a co-star ("I control this vessel"), making a sensational first movie role as the criminal boss in this filmmaker's thriller, inspired by true stories. When the final sequence doesn't bring tears, you have no heart.
