2/5
"most watchers will likely be too depressed to muster much sympathy for Even Money's downtrodden losers."
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
2/5
"Tannen's script dances with ridiculous one too many times."

David Cornelius
1/5
"The story is scarcely grounded in the mechanics of real-world expression."
Los Angeles Times

"It's all so ham-fisted and clumsy, a movie whose agenda looms heavily over the proceedings."

1/4
"Because of the 1985 Ryan O'Neal fiasco, Fever Pitch, Even Money doesn't have the distinction of being the worst film about gambling ever made. Then again, second place is also the first loser."

"To co-opt gambling addiction, which has roots far more complex than 'what we're willing to put on the line,' into the service of such facile moralizing seems tasteless."

Eugene Novikov

Maitland McDonagh
1/4
"Producer Bob Yari returns to the
Crash
well with
Even Money
and comes up with a turgid PSA about the dangers of gambling."
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
4/10
"Lady Luck fails to shine on this floundering, cliche-filled cautionary tale."

Susan Granger
2/4
"Robert Tannen's first-produced screenplay certainly doesn't lack for story -- or clichés, for that matter. Nor does Tannen skimp on trite, predictable plot twists, or well-worn, stock characters in his pedestrian script."
