With no emotional stakes and a confusing central conspiracy, Wander is a thriller without thrills and a political statement that doesn’t know what it wants to say.

One of the lamest episodes of The X-Files never made, Wander actually brings to mind the name of Mad magazine's spoof of the cult series. Just call this The Ecch-Files.

Wander tries to be a taut thriller, but after a while, it just wears you down.

Alix Turner Ready Steady Cut Feb 18, 2021 3/5

Intriguing and watchable conspiracy thriller with excellent acting, especially from Aaron Eckhart. Shocking at times, though a little unsatisfying and not quite believable enough.

A mystery thriller of slim proportions relying too much on high production.

Not only is the story unique, but it's brought to life by an all-star cast.

"Wander" is extremely well acted, but its outlandish twists and turns will have you rolling your eyes in disbelief.

A screwy little movie saved by committed performances.

Wander straddles the thin line between paranoia and truth, yet emerges as a compelling thriller with a genuine thirst for exposing what lies beneath.

Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Dec 5, 2020

Squandering a strong cast, this far-fetched thriller works better as a twisty small-town murder mystery than an idiosyncratic character study about redemption.

Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense Media Dec 5, 2020 2/5

This off-the-rails paranoid thriller is so untethered -- not helped by Eckhart's unpredictable, inconsistent performance -- that it's difficult to tell whether it's taking itself seriously.

[Wander] is kind of a drag at times, despite the energy director Mullen puts into the scenario's depiction.

The truth of Wander ... isn't something about this man. It's a trick played on us...

For all of its elaborate convolutions, it just winds up as confused and muddled as its hero.

Wander has some genuinely fun, crazy performances but any intrigue has been buried out in Area 51 somewhere.

Nate Adams The Only Critic Dec 3, 2020 D

Despite Aaron Eckhart and Tommy Lee Jones hamming it-up for the campy, unapologetic garbage the film is, "Wander" is a conspiracy theory that leads down a rabbit hole to nowhere.

Todd Gilchrist What To Watch Dec 2, 2020 2.5/5

A meandering and overcomplicated script written by Tim Doiron gives the cast too little to do in a journey that should at least illuminate some truths about their characters, even if what's going on in the world they inhabit is never entirely clear.

The feature is held back by crude filmmaking choices and some wild overacting by lead Aaron Eckhart, who doesn't have the discipline for the part.
