Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Turn the River is a finely observed portrait of a desperate working-class woman who refuses to play by ordinary rules.
Fresh: [This] atmospheric pic positively vibrates with authenticity.
Rotten: A well-acted, if not terribly well-crafted, character-driven drama without much in the way of a purpose.
Rotten: 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.
Customer Reviews
see it if you ARE JUST a fan of FAMKE JANSSEN
i love this movie even when it has Famke Janssen in it she is just amazing in this film. I also think that she should do a movie with uma thurman 1 day (this is just my opinion dont judge me)
It was actually really good!
First, I had intentions of only watching this movie because of Famke. Ha.. Isn't that why like.. basically everyone watched it, at first? Haha anyway, watching the movie it definitely became more then just wanted to see it because of her. Because the storyline is very gripping, and endearing! The acting is fantastic, and basically, you should see it. I gave it four stars though, because the ending kind of.. I don't know; Wasn't right for the film.
