The Angels' Share Ratings & Reviews
- Mister ArnJuly 21, 2025“The Angels’ Share”, directed by Ken Loach and written by Paul Laverty, blends gritty social realism with a surprisingly light caper comedy. It follows a young man caught between a troubled past and the possibility of something better, grounded by the steady support of a warm-hearted community service supervisor who gives the story its soul. The themes of poverty, justice, and redemption are timeless, and the humor mostly lands. I did find myself struggling at times to catch what they were saying, but I’m American, so I’ll own that.
- Dave BarnesMarch 28, 2025Nice little Scottish film, a bit violent to start with, then the comedy comes in.
