The lead actor gives a mature brilliant acting in one-man show as a man battling to stay alive in the maritime location after his personal boat, the fictional ship, is harmed in a collision with an errant shipping container. It's stressful enough to observe, so one can only imagine how physically gruelling it must have been for the 76-year-old star to shoot.
8. Captain Phillips (2013)
Tom Hanks provides excellent performance in among his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure roles, as the skipper of an American cargo ship commandeered by maritime criminals off the specific location. He has great chemistry by another actor ("I'm the captain now"), making a sensational film debut as the raider leader in this filmmaker's tense movie, derived from true stories. Should the last scene fails to move you, you're emotionally detached.
