Critic Reviews of "Turn the River"
Christian Science MonitorMay 16, 2008Janssen, who reportedly did her own pool shooting, is [best] served in the scenes with Gulley, which are wrenching in a coolly understated way.
Los Angeles TimesMay 16, 2008A well-acted, if not terribly well-crafted, character-driven drama without much in the way of a purpose.
I.E. WeeklyMay 15, 2008We're left after this terse and anxious film knowing nothing more about the world than that Janssen looks cool bending over and glaring at the eight-ball
New York TimesMay 09, 2008Turn the River is a finely observed portrait of a desperate working-class woman who refuses to play by ordinary rules.
New York PostMay 09, 2008Turn the River lacks almost everything Eigeman has as a performer: charisma, wit and snappy delivery.
New York Daily NewsMay 09, 2008It's not sharp or ironic, but drab and downbeat. Unfortunately, it's also going to feel utterly familiar to those who've seen their share of independent dramas in the last 15 years.
Boxoffice MagazineOctober 18, 2008Hopefully, more moviegoers will catch a performance as promising as this Turn in another rack.
Film Journal InternationalMay 09, 2008A modest, grittily surfaced film that, while nothing earth-shaking, manages to hold your interest, despite its basic been-there/done-that premise.
Filmcritic.comMay 08, 2008captures the scant, fetid tone of broken down pool halls and cracked glass bars infested with third-rate hustlers and frat boys slumming for a hustle
Metromix.comMay 08, 2008No glamorized games here, just a bleak look at a bleak story of a woman trying to crawl her way up from a life of limited options.
Slant MagazineMay 04, 2008It's a bumpy film, and though no one may see it, it's impossible to imagine it playing as gracefully, like its effectively open-ended finale, without Janssen's conviction to her role.
Nick's Flick PicksApril 26, 2008Turn the River, sometimes like Kailey herself and sometimes not, has a laudable habit of pulling back at the right moments and proving its mettle in unexpected ways.
