Departures Ratings & Reviews
The Contending
Joey Moser
Ely & Eyre-Morgan's film holds its emotions and its moments with a welcome, hopeful heart.
IndieWire
David Opie
For gay viewers especially aligned to these experiences, for those of us familiar with these "dickheads that fucked us over" firsthand, "Departures" is a cult classic in the making.
The Queer Review
James Kleinmann
Bold and ambitious...Despite the heavy themes it deals with, Departures is an entertaining watch. Through the film's dark humour and vivid characters, emerges a cathartic and ultimately hopeful tale of breaking through trauma.
InSession Film
Zach Youngs
Though, it's likely that this comedy is just too depressing for the rest of us to want to sit with. It's definitely not a film for those that want a light send up of toxic relationships.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Doesn't chart new territory or have anything profound to say about love, loneliness and sexuality. However, there's just enough witty and tender moments along with a heartfelt performance by Lloyd Eyre-Morgan which keeps the movie mildly engaging.
New York Times
Chris Azzopardi
"Departures" is still tender and winsome, with graphic-novel-style animation lightening the load, but is ultimately punishing in tone. It lives by a truth that might ring familiar for gay men particularly: Humor that cuts deep is a form of survival.
Film Threat
Ben Glidden
The ride has plenty of ups and downs, but it's definitely one worth sticking around for.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
There is plenty here for viewers to relate to, whether or not they've ever gone to those extremes. There's also an ample supply of humour, with laugh-out-loud moments occurring in the bleakest situations.
WeHo Times
Jeff Nelson
Eyre-Morgan's bright-eyed performance is full of infectious vigor, even in the midst of messy power dynamics that stretch and contort conventional understandings of love.
The Pink Lens
Ben Turner
This film feels like a Danny Boyle moment, injecting some much-needed dynamism into the genre. This is grass-roots cinema at its best. Stark, moving, edgy and drole, this is a genuinely exceptional feature debut.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Bethany Lola
There's a lot of depth and substance to Benji, which makes Departures that bit more enjoyable. [...] It's extremely raw to see gay men go through these experiences on screen, especially when so many films sugarcoat what it's like.
