Sorry We Missed You's reviews
Media reviews
The Guardian
It?s fierce, open and angry, unironised and unadorned, about a vital contemporary issue whose implications you somehow don?t hear on the news.
The Telegraph
A social and moral critique that we can expect from Loach, but without the sobering dialogues that could make their characters look less human.
Indiewire
"Another bittersweet crowd pleaser about despondent families striving to make ends meet."
Fotogramas
"Without leaving a bit of space for reflection, Loach imposes his speech in an aggressive way, handling a pleasure the illusions and anguish of a spectator who can not stop empathizing with the drama of the characters."
El Mundo
The director remains unperturbed in his making transparent, frontal and oblivious to subtleties, what he composes on the screen is so fiercely unrepressible as brutal.
La Razón
Perhaps the problem with Loach's cinema is that he believes too much in the cause-and-effect binomial. I mean, to prove his theory, Loach misrepresents the accounts. He's a capitalist of proletarian emotions.
ABC
A good, balanced film that offers both comfort and comfort and sticks to the viewer's skin.
El Periódico
The director talks again about the abuses suffered by the working class at the hands of capitalism and, to do so, he resorts to explicit sentimentality and dramatic Manitheism typical of the stories he has been telling for two decades.
El Mundo
He doesn't tell us anything that, unfortunately, we're not well informed. A film without surprises, that satisfies both fans and just the opposite.
The Hollywood Reporter
A sustained emotional crescendo over a silent personal devastation. It's such a human drama, so empathetic and powerful, that its scenes end up preventing you from breathing.
Screen Daily
One of Loach´s best films.
The Wrap
It addresses the usual topics of Loach and plasma in a clear and concise way. Or in other words, it's not a subtle movie at all. It has so many shocking and exhausting moments.
Caimán Cuadernos de Cine
It´s authors say it is a related work of 'I, Daniel Blake', but the truth is that it looks more like its faded and fainted copy, repetitive and predictable. Amen deeply dishonest in his self-condescending point of view.
Cine Premiere
Loach not only repeats her usual formula but leads her to unforgivable levels of intensity, imposing humiliating pity.
El País
There are ups and downs in his work, which has sometimes been simplistic or close to Manichaeism in his conception of good and bad, but when he has the right to remove me, believe me, make me feel indignation and piety, get involved in their demands and humanist stories
Variety
An intimate and powerful drama about what?s going on in people?s everyday lives ? not just in England, but all over the world
