'Pressure' Review: Gerard Butler's Tense Historical Thriller Brings WWII True Story To Life

On January 20, 1961, President-elect John F. Kennedy was riding to the Capitol for his inauguration alongside Dwight D. Eisenhower, the outgoing president and Supreme Allied Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force during D-Day.
