Under Pressure

Transsiberian

Director: Brad Anderson

The story starts off with world travelers Roy (Woody Harrelson) and wife Jessie (Emily Mortimer). After helping out in Asia they begin to head towards Russia by train. While stuck on this long, crowded journey they meet a couple of different characters. They’re interrupted by an intimidating man who is an investigator played by Sir Ben Kingsley. While out drinking Roy meets a young couple and offers to share his cabin with them. Carlos (Eduardo Noreiga) and girlfriend Abby (Kate Mara) try to get to know the couple so it wouldn’t be so awkward on the long nights. Carlos and Jessie begin to get a little too close and things start to get out of hand.

I was kind of bored with this movie. It had some action as well as suspense but it was very mild. I usually enjoy Woody Harrelson but not so much in a serious film. I have to say the plot was a little weak as well. I just didn’t see this as a super action film that kept my attention.

Rating- 2
