- 80Film ThreatJason DelgadoFilm ThreatJason DelgadoIt’s a showcase for what great independent filmmaking is all about, taking an interesting concept and applying excellent acting and directing on a limited budget. I will say that the ending felt a little weak to me, but the film is akin to life in general in that the most important aspect is the journey.
- 67The Film StageJared MobarakThe Film StageJared MobarakThe Immaculate Room isn’t breaking the mold on this type of conceit; if anything it’s purposely embracing a narrow scope of mental fracturing the scenario can ignite and counting on the actors to make it compelling.

- 40Screen RantPatrice WitherspoonScreen RantPatrice WitherspoonWith thinly written characters and a narrative confined to moments only serving to push Mike and Kate to the height of insanity, this is about as disappointing as it gets for a film with such promise and potential.
- 30The New York TimesLena WilsonThe New York TimesLena WilsonThe film focuses more on one character’s moral defects than the sketchy project overall, leading to a conclusion that feels unsatisfying at best and pompous at worst.
