Sorry We Missed You

Loach and Laverty to unite again to make a film that is in the same vein as I, Daniel Blake, except with even less humour. The film conveys the sense of desperation by some people on zero hour contracts with a relative sense of realism, but unfortunately goes too far, past the point of diminishing returns on sympathy. In the end, Sorry We Missed You isn't going to change anyone's mind, but sadly reinforce your preconceived views. It's well acted, though more "poverty porn" than entertainment.

Highly emotional and involving as usual, but so tightly downward plotted that it can't escape the also usual taste of Loach propaganda.

Not among Loach's best. A bit too on-the-nose with the misery porn, perhaps?

worth a watch

Classic Loach. I would like it more if he hadn't made even better films with the same message.
