Reviews


91
The Playlist - Gary Garrison
What is, at its outset, a rather charming film about the world-famous card mechanic Richard Turner and the obstacles he has overcome, winds up being a searching study of the painful nature of coming to terms with your own vulnerabilities.
80
Variety - Joe Leydon
The final scenes of Dealt are all the more affecting for illustrating Turner’s newfound willingness to accept things he once deemed unacceptable without significantly compromising his personal code of honor.
80
Los Angeles Times - Michael Rechtshaffen
As keenly observed by Korem and cinematographer Jacob Hamilton, Dealt achieves the neat trick of giving its main subject a rewarding character arc.
75
San Francisco Chronicle - David Lewis
This is a movie that has lots of magic, in more ways than one.
70
The Hollywood Reporter - John DeFore
While general audiences may wish for a bit more technical information about how Turner keeps track of cards without being able to see them, Korem understandably seizes on the emotional arc before him, following Turner's late-middle-age crisis through to its happy resolution.
