Letterboxd — Your life in film

A truly great piece of film making.

Departures is a beautifully acted Japanese movie, which managed to utterly immerse me into the fascinating life of Daigo Kobayashi, a successful cellist,…

What the fuck did i watch ?

The last really badass movie that Mel GIbson made requires nothing from the viewer. It just charges right in, wasting no time, and takes you on a wonderful little revenge…

It is hard to think about death, but in Departures the subject is treated in a masterly way with funny and touching moments.

A peaceful experience driven by fine performances…

I have been thinking long and hard about it and the only flaw I can find in this film is the way the title is written. It makes no sense…
