Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
No 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.

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.

Rating: B- --
Janssen, who reportedly did her own pool shooting, is [best] served in the scenes with Gulley, which are wrenching in a coolly understated way.

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

We'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

Rating: 2.5/4 --
It'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.

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.
