It's stressful enough to view, so heaven knows how extremely demanding it must have been for the senior performer to film.

8. Ship Commander (2013)

The lead actor provides outstanding acting in part of his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure roles, as the skipper of an American cargo ship hijacked by African raiders off the specific location. His performance is complemented by Barkhad Abdi ("I'm the captain now"), delivering a remarkable initial cinematic appearance as the criminal boss in the director's thriller, derived from real events. If the last scene doesn't bring tears, you're not human.
