Loach'ın anlattığı masal, tam da kendinden beklenecek özellikler taşıyor. Fakat The Angels' Share'in hafif-masalsı havasına benzer bir atmosfer yok filmde. Çocukların merkezde yer almasına rağmen, bu bir yumuşaklık yaratmıyor; yoğun ve sert bir yapısı var filmin. Zaten Loach'ın filmdeki en büyük başarısı, bu sert yapıyı, bir masalcasına anlatması.

Naturalistic performances, a charming story with a bite and a disarming strangeness... an oddity in Loach's filmography, but one that's certainly worth tracking down.

This rendition of mid-18th century England is dirty, lively, and easy to get lost in. The authentic accents are fun, as are the circuitous plot and variety of likable characters. This is my first Ken Loach film and I'm quite impressed.
