Movies that feel likePoseidon (2006)
If you loved Poseidon, the closest films we have are The Expendables 2 (2012), In the Heart of the Sea (2015) and On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969). All three share Poseidon's epic and kinetic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is 13 Assassins (2010).

If Poseidon hit the spot, these will too

The same preoccupation in both: grief
The difference: Critics rated this one higher still

Two things both keep coming back to: ship and shipwreck
The difference: Sits closer to drama than Poseidon does

One thread runs through both: daughter
The difference: Made in the 1960s, in a different era of the craft

Epic where it counts, kinetic underneath
The difference: Easier on the tension than Poseidon

Tense and melancholy in the same breath
The difference: Leans harder into drama than Poseidon does


Both are Wolfgang Petersen's work, and they rhyme

Wolfgang Petersen working the same nerve twice

Both keep coming back to the same thing: cataclysm

Action with a pulse of momentum, in both cases

Both lean on scale more than on adventure

Tense thriller in both cases
