Karma (2025)

"Only good things lie ahead"

The makers of Karma liked to take the viewer on a ride that jostled back and forth and side to side for the most part in familiar territory. While I’m sure they thought we’d be shocked and awed, there were few surprises. I do admit to falling for one of the red herrings for part of the drama. Sometimes this style of filming and script writing can feel overly contrived, but for me, it worked in Karma…for the most part.

Six people’s lives became entangled both from despicable actions in the past and foul deeds in the present, the majority of whom deserved whatever karma dished out. And karma was as ruthless as a finely honed scalpel but not nearly as kind.

I don’t want to say much more because this short drama is best enjoyed coming to it fresh. The cast was strong, not that you’ll like most of the characters. Even the “good” characters harbored abhorrent secrets. Karma was a dark and twisted knot of the worst of humanity’s foibles. A better title for this drama might have been “Just Deserts.”

Trigger warnings: Foul language. Gruesome scenes.


Tiny spoilerish comment below:






There were a few scenes that came across as comical when the drama began to feel like Weekend at Bernie’s gone awry. lol

"Karma Delivers"

I watched Karma and honestly, the story was really good—it definitely pulls you in. Though I feel like it could have been even better with some tighter cinematography and a more refined handling of the timelines. That said, the acting was absolutely on point. Every character was built up so well, and you could really feel the depth in their roles. The drama had this intense vibe, yet everything was well balanced. Also, the OST, especially the title track, added so much to the emotional weight of the scenes. It’s definitely something I’d re-watch—not just for the story, but for the overall experience.
