Reviews


88
Chicago Sun-Times - Unnamed
Loach's realism always carries a distinct sense of humor, volatility and, most alarmingly in this hypercapitalist new century, a socialist passion for The People.
83
Portland Oregonian - Unnamed
Although some of the accents are so thick it's difficult to understand the dialogue (where are the subtitles when we need them?) the performances feel genuine.
80
The Guardian - Peter Bradshaw
Ken Loach's latest collaboration with screenwriter Paul Laverty is warm, funny and good-natured. It's a freewheeling social-realist caper – unworldly and at times almost childlike.
80
Total Film - Unnamed
For all its bleak edges, The Angels’ Share warms like a sip of the good stuff.
80
New York Magazine (Vulture) - David Edelstein
The Angels’ Share is a rare upbeat Ken Loach comedy — and a wee dram of bliss. Set in Scotland, it has a blessedly funny overture.
