Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/5 --
It'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.

Hopefully, more moviegoers will catch a performance as promising as this Turn in another rack.

Boxoffice Magazine
A modest, grittily surfaced film that, while nothing earth-shaking, manages to hold your interest, despite its basic been-there/done-that premise.

Rating: 4/5 --
captures 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

Rating: 2/5 --
A well-acted, if not terribly well-crafted, character-driven drama without much in the way of a purpose.

Los Angeles Times
TURN THE RIVER is a finely observed portrait of a desperate working-class woman who refuses to play by ordinary rules.
New York Times
Rating: 1.5/4 --
Turn the River lacks almost everything Eigeman has as a performer: charisma, wit and snappy delivery.

Product Description:
Though most know Famke Janssen for action-oriented roles in the X-Men films, she bears the heft of this weighty drama with apparent ease. Janssen stars as Kailey, a woman who had to give up her son at birth, but now she's using her skills as a pool hustler to earn enough money to get him back. Actor Chris Eigeman (THE TREATMENT) turns director, writer, and producer with this acclaimed indie film.
