Hard-working, recent college graduate Bridger receives heartbreaking news that his mother has cancer. Strapped for cash, he needs to make more money than his day job pays to provide his mother with treatment. As fate would have it, he finds a half-bleached dollar bill in his pocket after pulling his clothes out of the wash, spurring an idea to make counterfeit money. He brings his close friends in on the scheme, but they begin to abuse the process, putting Bridger and his mother at risk.

Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times Counterfeiters is an amateurish first film, with inexperienced actors, clunky writing and a homemade ambiance. But the ambition and moments of inspired style are to be lauded. Jul 23, 2018 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Hirschberg writes, directs, produces, edits and stars in this uncommonly satisfying low-budget thriller that was put together on an estimated $8,000. Rated: 3.0/4.0 Sep 5, 2020 Full Review Dominic Griffin Spectrum Culture Hirschberg has a lot of potential should he be given a full-sized budget and a capable writing partner. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 17, 2019 Full Review Alex Arabian Film Inquiry By combining realism with some of his favorite cinematic influences, maximizing an impressively minimal budget, and embracing the the art of collaboration, Hirschberg makes a commendable film debut. Jun 8, 2018 Full Review Nick Rocco Scalia Film Threat Counterfeiters is distinctive enough in its characterization of Bridger and so efficient and engaging in its world-building that its mishandled climax shouldn't weigh so heavily against it. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 14, 2018 Full Review Betty Jo Tucker ReelTalk Movie Reviews Frame by frame, 'Counterfeiters' is a riveting movie. Filmmaker Bryce Hirschberg, who also plays the lead role, gives it all his heart and soul. Feb 7, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Studenty stab at a movie. Did he print up some bills to finance it? Bryce may make a good moviemaker someday, but not today. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member What a thrill ride! What an outstanding, all around great film. I gotta say, I rarely find a movie where my attention is completely nailed to the screen at all times, and Counterfeiters did a magnificent job of not leaving any room for boredom. The amount of twists this movie encompassed only furthered it's success. And lastly, the ending- wow....when's the sequel?! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Rented this film on iTunes last night... WOW. Such a face paced, exciting, non-stop thrill ride.. Thought I was going to watch a movie about german holocaust money makers... so glad I picked this one instead! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the best indie movies I've ever seen. I thought it was a feature! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
