Wasteman Ratings & Reviews
JVS Media & Productions/Team JVS
Samuel Leggett Jr.
David Jonsson and Tom Blyth are incredible in this prison thriller. Blyth is unrecognizable as a terrifying inmate. It's tense, gritty, and keeps you guessing until the end. A shocking, well-acted film that floors you.
Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)
Mark Kermode
Even the hardest characters have got a sympathetic side.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
It's brutal in its depiction of the life inside, yet the performances turned in by leads David Jonsson and Tom Blyth make it all the more effective, as we watch what plays out.

It's a raw, hard prison life. Then you die. Or you rise. That's the point.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Serena Seghedoni
Above all, this is a story of survival, where the only ones who'll make it out alive are those who have always known how to do the right thing.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
When everyone in "Wasteman" is looking for a fresh start, the talent behind it is boldly announcing themselves as a next wave and the film is bound to have a ripple effect by thinking outside the box in every respect.
Next Best Picture
Giovanni Lago
"Wasteman" is a frenetic prison drama that is as unnerving as it is harrowing. David Jonsson and Tom Blythe continue to showcase their talents with two powerhouse performances fueled by the technicality of Cal McMau's direction.

Will Bjarnar
More films should be willing to take such harrowing risks, but few will result in achievements as bold and brilliant as this. Perhaps they'd be best not to try.

Brian Tallerico
There's a spark that the film gains from these two young performers that's never extinguished.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
Wasteman isn't therefore looking to surprise its audience. Its strength lies in the tension born from its unavoidable progressions.
