Watched it for Matthew Goode, but it was actually a good film!

I've got the tendency to watch any movie just because an actor is in it, and so was the case with Pressure. As a girl who cannot even swim, the plot obviously didn't appeal to me at first. But as an avid cinephile/movie buff/filmoholic, I was pleasantly surprised by the actors' performances and the veritable suspense throughout the film. I believe they did a good job at individualizing each character and giving them a distinct life story and destiny by the end of the film. They could have developed them even further but I guess they chose not to because of the length limit. Matthew Goode stood out, as always, as dominant actor, because he owns every (lead) role he plays!
