Playing God Reviews
The Hollywood Outsider
Aaron Peterson
Elevated by Alan Tudyk and Michael McKean, Playing God overcomes its problematic concept to deliver more than thoughts and prayers.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
Playing God succeeds, simply by investing some thought and care into these characters.
Common Sense Media
Monique Jones
Playing God is a stealth crowd-pleaser.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
It's uneven, but the endeavor deserves some credit for trying to work beyond escapism to address some agonizing realities of life.
Mama's Geeky
Tessa Smith
An incredible cast and interesting concept. Not perfect, but the ending more than makes up for any faults.

[Playing God is] this week's episode of 'Good Actors, Less Than Ideal Script.'

Jackie K. Cooper
A story about con artists but with a fresh, new perspective.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Mildly engaging, clunky, uneven and shallow.
Film Threat
Alan Ng
Playing God's fun is because the film is not what you think and will surprise you at how excellent and heartfelt the real story is.
Houston Chronicle
Chris Vognar
What doesn't work on a logic level makes sense according to the characters and performances. And the twists - a con movie always has twists - are quite satisfying, even if you see them coming.
In Review Online
Steven Warner
That this is wrapped within a tale concerning the holiest of fathers Himself is certainly a clever maneuver, if not a bit too obvious.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
The very flimsy premise of Playing God is bloated into 95 minutes of tedious and uninspired repetition, with dull acting and empty characters. It's ironic that this vapid comedy, which tries to use spirituality as a punchline, actually has no soul.
Screen Zealots
Louisa Moore
Worth checking out if you're in the mood for something original, thoughtful, and different.
AIPT
Nathaniel Muir
There is a bigger suspension of belief needed than usual for a movie about con artists, but Alan Tudyk's performance makes this a worthwhile watch.
What She Said
Anne Brodie
Altogether unique, Playing God is a worthy and provocative watch.
