"The world of cult deprogramming isn't one that makes its way to the big screen often, but the execution is often stilted, leaving the audience at a distance." - Sean Williamson, Toronto Star
"Every role in Antonio Campos' Deprogramming is cast to near perfection, led by the sharp, nuanced performance by the talented Casey Affleck." - Brian Edelstein, Time Out
"Inspired by Rick Ross and the Jason Scott case, director Antonio Campos and writer Lon Charles have populated their film with characters with questionable ethics and motives. Part of the fun of watching Deprogramming is the ability to decide for yourself if each character is good or bad." - Mark Rawls, Seattle Times
