Richard Roeper

Chicago Sun-Times

The sharp screenplay by Josh Wilcox nails the poker lexicon yet never gets so deep in the weeds that the non-player would be lost.

Rated: 3/4

It isn’t necessarily a bad movie, just a mediocre one that only reminds you of all the better films it aspires to be like.

Rated: 2/4

JK Sooja

Common Sense Media

Andy is appropriately moody and serious as a whip-smart high-stakes poker player, but his character quickly gets overshadowed by all the violence and stagey plot devices.

Joel Copling

Spectrum Culture

Dead Money relies far too much on the idea that some of these characters are smarter than others, only to do any intelligence a disservice by playing this silly game with its audience.

Rich Cline

Shadows on the Wall

Director Luc Walpoth plays on genre cliches to build some slick, edgy tension. But the meandering plot and fuzzy point of view make it difficult to stay involved.

Rated: 2.5/5

Jennie Kermode

Eye for Film

Walpoth knows how to handle action, and there’s plenty of it here, up close and messy, characters improvising in ways that tend to test stunt teams much more than smooth martial arts moves.

Rated: 3/5

Movie F

I downloaded this movie since I was traveling, I'm a huge fan of Poker and also Jackie Earle Haley, I must say I was not disappointed, it was a wild ride of chaos and dark funny moments. Seen it 3 times and it makes me laugh every time, Peter Facinelli was so good too

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I don’t know much about poker, but the story line was great! The characters were hilarious and I really enjoyed it.
