    I cannot beleive I was pressed into watching this junk

    (2012) Pressed THRILLER

    Co- written, co-produced and directed by Justin Donnelly directing yet an unsatisfying, strictly-by-the book with no new surprises, straight-to-rental movie regarding spontaneous circumstances starring Luke Goss as Brian who's just gotten the boot from his previous job, something to do with advertising. Afraid to notify his wife about it, Brian decides to sulk his sorrows by drinking at a bar only to find out that one of his old school chums happens to be the owner of the bar he was drinking in. To lift Brian's spirits up, he offers him a gambling deal of a sure thing by tripling his money for him from 500 dollars to 5,000. Feeling so high and mighty, Brian then scrounges up a hundred grand of his own money, only to find out later that his bar owner friend was intending to invest it into the drug trade. And everything goes downhill from here as soon as a couple of precocious teenagers stole the charger where the hundred grand was stored in. Take my word for it, things really do get worst from here, and they don't get any better. You know, if you're a frequent newspaper and magazine reader, and news watcher, you would very well know that whatever 'negative' happens in this film is the kind of stuff people read and hear about all the time, so why do we need to watch it as a movie one might ask. It's because there's still an audience for these type of movies where they're many 'narrow minded' people who chose to not keep themselves inform about what is happening in today's society, and rather tweet, twitter and gossip with users on facebook with perfect strangers and don't seem to care about anything else. The thing is that not everything that is shown on the news is a sad story often stereotypically suggested. Also, they're hundreds of better films that almost uses this exact same scenario which makes one to wonder, whether or not the makers/ writers of this movie came up with the story by reading it from some article, or had seen someone else doing a better job of it. Bomb.

    Monotone very slow movie

    This movie seems to be good from the description and actors in it but it never really takes off. The entire movie is monotone and doesn't deserved to be called a thriller! I love movies with this kind of story line and in this genre but I'm here to save you the time and let you know I believe you'll be very disappointed and realize you've lost an hour and 45 minutes of your life.

    The actors are decent, I believe the main role may have been better suited for someone like Mark Whalburg. And it's almost like there's 2 totally different plots until the last 30 minutes of the story. Definitely not as thrilling as desired. The idea is a good one just not carried out by the staff to its potential!!

    Nice try, but thoroughly flawed

    OK, Matt Goss puts up a good show of being a young exec on the way down. And when he's tempted into easy money in a bar, we can believe it. But luck would have it that a couple of kids steal a car containing the deal money. Me, I'd be out of there, but these dumb brats somehow (didn't get how) find themselves speaking to Matt on the phone and agree to meet him, later to try and get the money back on the car and electronics they've bought. Are they mad? Why would they do that? I was OK with the first three-quarters of the story, then it goes into Alice in Wonderland territory - yet Matt maintains his serious expression to the end. Masterful! In conclusion: an unconvincing story makes a dreadful movie.

    Normal movie

    It's quite good movie. Not even it is quite small budget movie, it contains good cameraman work, good producing and work of actors. All visualization is good and all movie is comparable with big budget movies. From the technical side - movie won't disappoint viewers.

    But story have some disadvantages. All storyline is quite clear, but for me some acts of characters looked inadequate for their current situation. And because these acts is a piece of story, the story starting to look to me not so hard, serious and shocking. But the last 15 min will shows, that all movie lead you to situation without salvation. After all - our all life contains a lot inadequate act and decisions, and Pressed story could become your story (in the worst variant).

    As I sad, all movie is quite calm and slow. There aren't a lot of action, car chasing or big "booms". But all that calmness to me created scary atmosphere, because it looked so real and it could took place in my neighborhood.

    In summary I can say, that Pressed is normal movie (100% not bad, but is it good - it's a question for each viewer).

    Slow - Zero Excitment - Confusing Storyline - "NOT" Worth Your Time

    01/13/2019 Proof that even big names like Luke Goss can NOT lift a bad storyline. Dull, dead from the start and never improves, not even the unsatisfying ending i.e. "Waste of viewers time". Bon Appetit

      Late in the film, a business jet is seen taxiing. A couple of minutes later, a similar jet rolls to a stop at the hangar. They are clearly meant to be the same aircraft. However, they have different paint schemes and only the first has a window in the door.
