 disturbing film February 26, 2007

Firefighter Lyle Wilder (Charlie Sheen) is a hero to his Los Angeles community, but few know that he's harboring a deadly secret: He's slowly turning into a sociopath. His neighbor Catherine Braverton (Mare Winningham) and her two children have clued in to Lyle's altered personality and soon find themselves targeted as his first victims. The only trouble is, they can't seem to convince anyone that Lyle is dangerous.
Ohhhh! Me so sorry! July 20, 2006
W. H. Perry (Florence, AL)
This movie, while it may try to be very suspenseful (and actually does succeed in doing so) is an absolute riot! Ever wanted to see what would happen to Charlie Sheen if he ever went without sleep? Well, this is the movie for you! I cannot wait to see this movie again! Very underrated and deserves a hell of a lot more credit than it received.
Charlie Sheens best performance. Ever.
EXPLOSIVE!! July 19, 2006
John D. Seneca (PLAQUEMINE, LOUISIANA)
UNDER PRESSURE IS ONE OF THE BEST THRILLERS OF ALL TIME!!
IT FEATURES FANTASTIC PERFORMANCES AND AN EDGE-OF-YOUR-SEAT STORY THAT WILL KEEP YOU LOCKED INTO IT UNTIL THE CREDITS ROLL!!
CHARLIE SHEEN GIVES A KNOCKOUT PERFORMANCE AND MARE WINNINGHAM IS GREAT...AS ALWAYS!!
 PRESSURE COOKER April 22, 2004
Michael Butts (Martinsburg, WV USA)
UNDER PRESSURE is a tense, disturbing film, dominated not by star Charlie Sheen's over the top performance as the demented fireman, but by the down to earth, touching performance by Mare Winningham. Mare portrays the mother of a family that is almost picture perfect; David Andrews plays her adoring husband, and she has two cute if persnickety kids. However, next door neighbor Charlie Sheen seems to have fallen apart since his heroic life-saving. His wife and son have left him, he's on probation from his job, and his wife has put a restraining order on him. Naturally, this leads him to resent the couple next door, and soon Charlie's a bloodthirsty killer. He tortures an unsuspecting refrigerator repairman, and ultimately does in a couple of cops before the final showdown with Mare and Andrews.
This could have been a much better film, had we at least understood what Sheen was like before his heroic deed. We also find out he let the baby's mother die in the fire because he was judgmental enough to condemn her having a child in a crackhouse.
Okay, so without that, we still have a good, solid movie, thanks mainly to Miss Winningham.
