Delia's Gone follows Louis (Stephen James), who has an intellectual disability and lives with his older sister Delia (Genelle Williams) amidst her struggles with addiction following their father's death. After a night of drinking, Delia's truck is found abandoned at a bar, drawing suspicion from the local sheriff (Marisa Tomei) who soon discovers she's been killed. All evidence points to Louis who, pressured by police, pleads guilty and is sentenced to five years in prison for his sister's murder. Upon release, Louis is confined to a home care facility where he is visited by Stacker (Travis Fimmel), one of the men to last see Delia alive, who implies that there is more to her death than meets the eye. Armed with this new information, Louis escapes the facility on a personal mission to find who is responsible for Delia's mysterious death.

It's such a great premise... But the actual mystery that he's solving is not that compelling, so I found myself very restless.

One watches this movie with a persistent “this is just … wrong” feeling.

...just another minor variation on the “sympathetic fugitive pursued by bickering lawmen” formula that Hell Or High Water briefly reinvigorated.

5/10

There is good acting here - Tomei, James, Houser - but getting through it is a slog.

3/5

The effort put forth by James, Tomei, Hauser, and Fimmel just about carries Delia’s Gone over the finish line, which offsets the overall lack of a laser-focused singular method of storytelling that would have improved things exponentially.

Walks a little too close to the sun with a problematic portrayal of an intellectual disability that feels borderline offensive and wrong, which makes the film uncomfortable and unpleasant to watch.
