The Angels' Share is a surprisingly delightful, uplifting comedy that successfully blends a charming story of redemption with bits of dark humor and a social message.

Despite its ultimate sense of optimism, the Glasgow-set dramedy nevertheless carries a sense of foreboding. And yet, that might not have been the intention. Jan 1, 2014 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

The result is a sometimes gritty, occasionally charming Highland hybrid, but the final balance feels slightly off-kilter. May 17, 2013 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

This is far-and-away one of the most lovingly-crafted pieces of British cinema released this year, all the more pleasurable when you acknowledge that it comes from one of our best and longest-serving directors. Jan 7, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Part social realism, part comedy caper, and so good-natured, warm and affectionate it's rather a joy, even though it doesn't exactly add up. Aug 31, 2018 | Full Review…

A little too trite and hypothetical for some people to handle, but there's no denying the boundless charm, wit and cool air that envelops this suitably amiable tale. Aug 13, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Ken Loach and screenwriter Paul Leverty manage to find a remarkable balance between drama and dark humor in this engaging comedy full of heart, with the result feeling almost like a fine Scotch whisky - a real pleasure to the senses that makes you always wanting more.

Maybe it is just me, but I was completely bored. I only made it about 40 min in, and I had to turn it off.

When he becomes a father, Robbie tries to put his violent life as a street thug behind him; his unexpectedly refined palette for malt whiskey may provide him a means to escape poverty. Powerful drama assaults you up front, offset by working class comedy that lingers throughout. Finishes with a wisp of heist movie for a finely balanced mix sure to lift your spirits.
