Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Michael Ledo In the Indian Ocean, a diving bell with a crew opts to make repairs with a storm coming. S@#t happens and it becomes a fight for life among a crew that doesn't always get along. The acting was Goode, but the storyline grew old. I can only take so much drama of people trapped in one place. This is a drama/thriller and not a horror. Not much more exciting than the cover art. Guide: F-bomb, FF nudity (Gemita Samarra)

Rohit Gahlowt This is an unknown film with not such good reviews from audiences and critics alike. But I watched it because I like locked room stories/mysteries, and the fact that it was set hundreds of feet under water, where the pressure is tremendous and oxygen only what you find in your deep sea diving suit and the submarine pod, made it a must watch for me. This is a locked room suspense, submarine movie. Unless the characters behave stupidly and start killing each other, I don't think anything can go wrong with such a story.And I was right. Right from the get go, this took me with the deep sea divers down under water, and kept me there. In a way I was stuck with them, trapped with them, and wanted to see what will happen next.The basic plot is four deep sea diver are sent in a small pod to fix an oil pipeline on the sea bed. It's a high risk job as a storm is brewing in the skies. Soon they find themselves trapped underwater and retreat into the small submarine/pod which has only so much oxygen for them. So as the characters are trapped they understand, the lesser the number of characters alive, the more the oxygen for them. So if the other trapped character was to die in an accident they would be able to live longer! But what happened next wasn't what I was expecting. It's certainly not about characters killing each other. Instead the second half of the movie is thrilling and emotional as we begin to root for the characters and want them to come out of this dire situation alive!It may not be a big blockbuster, it may not have A list actors, it may not be factually correct about deep sea diving, but it is certainly a good story, with an edge of the seat climax! Rarely does a film take you away from your comfortable chair, and comfortable life and transport you into a different, dangerous, unknown, unseen world. This is one of them. In spite of the flaws, this is a must watch for the setting, suspense and the story.

Wizard-8 "Pressure" is neither a great movie nor a bad movie; there are both some good things about it as well as some not so great things. First, the good things. Director Ron Scalpello does manage to generate a good taste of what it must be like to be down in the ocean in a cramped, cold and dark environment, and he manages to handle what had to be limited funds to make a movie that doesn't come across as cheap. Also, he makes the movie click along at a good pace so there are no slow or boring spots.Now, the not so good things. While Scalpello makes a good-looking movie, he does stumble in on aspect: There really isn't a high level of tension or suspense despite the fact the characters are facing possible death in just a few hours. In fairness, some of this may have been to the way the characters are scripted. The characters for the most part act alike and are not terribly interesting. They also seem to take their predicament much better than you'd think. I realize they are professionals, but some sign of human weakness would have helped considerably. To sum up, I've seen better... but I've also seen worse. Wait to watch it until you can see it for free on a slow Sunday when you can't find anything better to watch.

vindalootiger This movie was part of my B movie genre one afternoon. I usually am not the thriller type, I typically prefer more action adventure oriented (Deep Star 6, The Abyss etc...) There were elements that reminded me of Das Boot. However I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed it. The Good: The acting was surprisingly good, the script writing was good, the effects were good. The Bad: The plot is a little predictable at times, but this is just an adaptation of Lifeboat. Character development could have been a little better, I didn't feel as invested in any of the characters as I felt I should have. Generally I did enjoy it, I probably will not watch is again, but I would recommend it to anyone
