Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times The film's musings on artists and muses tries to be deep but gets bogged down in tiresome booze-soaked mind games. Mar 18, 2016 Full Review John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter An uncertain drama full of attitude it can't back up with action. Mar 18, 2016 Full Review Odie Henderson RogerEbert.com Something is off from the first scene. Rated: 0/4 Mar 18, 2016 Full Review Christine N. Ziemba Paste Magazine The new feature film Backgammon has at least one thing in common with its namesake board game: After watching it for just a few minutes, you're bound to get bored. Rated: 3.3/10 Mar 18, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Marshall N If you're tired of Hollywood's "cookie cutter" approach to filmmaking, then you'll likely enjoy this. It starts out slow, but draws you in as it goes along. Great acting, locations and cinematography! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/28/23 Full Review Audience Member I warn you...DO NOT waste your time on this film. 25 minutes in and I was falling asleep. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member A well done indie feature. If you judge this by the criteria you use to judge big budget studio films, you may be disappointed, but if you keep in mind that this is a low budget indie flick, I think you'll be impressed. Good acting, great music, and excellent cinematography! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Backgammon might be one of the best thrillers of 2016. Brittany Allen and Noah Silver are genius together and really had me on my seat. The cinematography was breath taking. Every camera angle really had a purpose! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
