[A] dreary psychodrama that squanders good performances and a sharp midfilm twist.

Waking Karma takes the long way to reach its joyless conclusion.

Rated: 2/5

Collider

What hurts Waking Karma more than anything else is the lack of polishing both the screenplay and direction got. And with a little more production time, the movie could have become something more memorable.

Rated: C-

Jared Mobarak

Hey, Have You Seen ...?

Alexander and Shetler get a few really strong moments together to allow the grounded nature of the whole to resonate, but it's not enough to mask the superficiality of the vessel.

Rated: 5/10
