FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

They show us all these really salacious scenes... With a bunch of bad dialogue.

Hollywood Reporter

Featuring a strong lead performance by Erica Ash, Skin in the Game proves an engrossing addition to a sadly burgeoning sub-genre.

Los Angeles Times

There's little development as it puts them (characters) through hell, focusing more on the issue than on the people experiencing it.

Despite all its cinematic faults, I'm willing to give it a pass because it covers an important topic that is not getting enough attention in the mainstream news.

Rated: B-

Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I enjoyed the message of this indie film. Slowly the battle against Human trafficking in the USA has gained traction in the media and this film shows a particular story that is sadly a real threat to many young women. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member okayish... too easy plot.too fairy tale like Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Wow this was bad - like super bad - Acting bad, screenplay bad, no plot, no character development. The filmmakers clearly did little to no research.Most of the time it feels like a sexexploitation Film that ran out of budget for porn stars. It all so feels like it wants to tackle bigger issues while casing no offence and being a PG-13 film.The reviews here feel a bit paid and bought if you look to more reliable sources.Note: I CAN WRITE better fact! possible even act better!!! Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Howard B A must see film that deals with a tough subject matter. Cast is great and this indie film deserves to be supported. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/13/19 Full Review Read all reviews
