Very moving and beautifully executed story. It's more tragedy than drama, but sets modern life into perspective.

Documentary drama from Ken Loach. The real life struggles of real people struggling to make ends meet after the financial crash. This is about a family in desperate situations, who are financially and time poor. He's a hardworking self-employed delivery driver, she's an overstretched care worker. Both very demanding jobs, their lives are hard, and their kids are neglected. A serious story for current times, though there are no references to Brexit or politics generally. If you've seen 'I, Daniel Blake' then you'll have a good idea what to expect, though this isn't about benefits. This is more about what happens when there are no workers' rights. Recommended.

Looked forward to this for a long time. I work in the parcel delivery industry and was interested how it would be portrayed. The intention was right. The premise was right. The execution was probably some of the worst wooden boring acting i have ever seen. It struck me as straight from high school stuff. I'm very surprised Loach let such bad bad acting, particularly from Abbies character go. The way she reacted to dialogue was truly awful. No emotion, poor timing. After Daniel Blake as a study on struggles in today's society I expected so much more.

I saw a preview of this film at HOME in Manchester on 1st October. Yet again Ken Loch and scriptwriter Paul Laverty have told the kind of story about working class life that nobody else thinks important enough to tell. It follows a family with the conventional ambition of wanting to buy their own house. But for this they need to earn more. The husband Ricky buys into what he thinks is an opportunity to become self employed as a delivery driver and be his own boss. But he asks his wife Abby to make a sacrifice to enable him to afford his own van and this reduces her own scope for getting work. He soon finds that the opportuity is really a trap. He has entered the gig economy where there is no guarantee of work, people who take sick leave get fined, and the delivery company drives its staff into the ground in order to stay ahead in a cut throat world of competition with its competitors. The relentless nature of the work has a damaging effect on the family's relationships. There is no happy ending - what Ken Loach film ever has one? - but there is nothing predictable in the story and the dramatic pace doesn't flag. As he often does, the director has used new actors and at a few points early on in the film their lack of experience jars just a little. But overall the performances are convincing. The film makers clearly did their research into the gig economy and its vicious and ultimately unsustainable working environment, and what happens to the family in the story is completely believable, and disturbing. My main criticism is that, in Ken Loach's most recent films, none of his characters show any agency. It would have been heartening, just for once if his characters had shown some of the initiative of the real life Deliveroo and Uber drivers, who formed workplace unions and wrung fairer treatment and conditions out of their employers.

To those criticising this film, I question whether you've had to experience anything like this Film depicts, cuz I have, I'm a conservative so I'm not partial to left wing nonsense and I'm very anti unions, I work in construction in Australia and I can assure you, there are many people like myself that experience these impossible odds, with no help from Anyone, people like the protagonist and his family are the people that fall through the cracks, yet do not want to wallow in victimhood, so we suffer in silence and press on. Watch this film if you to have a similar life, it might give you some hope, to see aspects of your forgotten story, finally given some light and maybe Now that's it's received some attention, we can hope that others don't have to go through similar trying circumstances.

For Loach, who is peaking yet again at this point in his career, this is another song about those unspoken for. This time it's delivery drivers. Be it an Amazon or a food delivery service. The most beautiful parts however are the the filmmaker also does say along with depicting the toughness of their lives, that the only way to breathe normally amidst this is to stick together as family.

His film hits home in every possible way. Such a simple story and yet to relatable because the struggles are so universal. Absolutely beautiful. After I, Daniel Blake, this is another one that made me cry my heart out, quite literally.

This film start with a man "Ricky" interviewing for his job, and he talking with his wife "Abbie" scene! As turnout, this film is about Ricky struggle to provide for his family, working as a delivery driver! Entire film full of boring conversation, and annoying overuse scene! Such as, overuse of the moving parcel scene, overuse of the blackout scene, overuse of the argument scene, overuse of the driving scene, and overuse of the eating scene! Make the film unwatchable! Barely intense scene is, Ricky been robbed, after he finish taking his piss! At the end, family of Ricky prevent Ricky to work, but he insist and drive away his van! That's it! Wasting time to watch!

This is a film about normal people going through rough times. Then things get worse. Not my idea of entertainment at all. I saw this in a "Sneak Preview" and only 1 person left early. I wish I had not stayed to the end as it made me feel thoroughly miserable.
