9. Total Loss (2013)
The main star gives a late-career brilliant acting in single character portrayal as a individual battling to endure in the maritime location after his personal boat, the Virginia Jean, is impaired in a impact with an errant transport unit. It's anxious enough to observe, so one can only imagine how exceptionally strenuous it must have been for the 76-year-old star to shoot.
8. Vessel Leader (2013)
The main star provides outstanding acting in among his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure characters, as the commander of an American cargo ship seized by maritime criminals off the specific location. He has great chemistry by another actor ("Now I'm in charge"), providing a sensational film debut as the criminal boss in the director's suspense film, derived from true stories.
