Movie Shout Outs - Favorite Film at Sea? - Responses

It's Movie Shout out Sunday Time!

 

Yesterday's Question was:



What is your favorite film that takes place (at least in part) on the high seas?


There was a lot of consensus on a few of these, and a few surprised us.  We love it when this happens! Check out the responses below:

 

Finding Nemo (2003)
Yvonne via MYMHM comment

I've gotta go with The Abyss (1989).
Dave M. via Facebook

Would have to be either Carry On Jack (1963) for comedy value or Dead Calm (1989) for maniac value.

 Moby Dick (1956)

Dead Calm (1989)...Great flick. Saw it at the theatre when it first came out.
Matt H. via Facebook

Is in ok too? :) Deep Blue Sea (1999), I liked it a lot! :D

Lusitania (1918)
Jack via MYMHM comment

 

Jaws (1975) (at least in part for its sea act) and Master & Commander (2003).

Hunt for Red October (1990)
Carmen via MYMHM comment

 Waterworld (1995)! Seriously, am I the only person who liked that movie?
*ducks the tomatoes slung his direction*

Final Countdown (1980) not the song, the movie ;)
@DangerShoes via Twitter

Under Siege (1992)
Rich via MYMHM comment

I'll show my age. 20K Leagues Under the Sea (1954). Saw it at the theater when it came out. Jaws (1975) is a close second. I rarely go swimming in the ocean to this day.

JAWS! (1975)
@fifijaxxxson via Twitter

Master & Commander (2003)
Nicolas via MYMHM comment

The Abyss (1989) is my fave too...
Maggie O via Facebook

Abyss (1989) is a good one, but the only ones I can remember w/ sea scenes involve James Bond + a brunette, which probably means something.
Michelle N via Facebook

Speed 2 (1997)? Just kidding....I love The Abyss (1989), but I think I gotta go with Mister Roberts (1955).
Brigitte B via Facebook

Pirates of the Caribbean (2003).  The first one.  
Marie from MYMHM

Probably...Crimson Tide (1995).  Everything that movie did well is now so cliched, it's easy to forget how balanced and slick a movie it is.  That, or Down Periscope (1996).
Lee from MYMHM

The Incredible Mr. Limpet (1964)
.  Don Knotts as an animated fish fighting Nazi's?  How can you go wrong?
Juan from MYMHM
