Directed by Ken Loach | 101 mins | 2012
Hewing closer to the spunky, good-hearted comedy of "The Full Monty" (1997) than one might expect from the director of "Kes" (1967), "The Angels’ Share" is a quaffable blend of Ken Loach’s trademark social critique and an offbeat crime caper. Together with the reforming criminals in his community service group, twentysomething Robbie (Paul Brannigan), a new father very nearly imprisoned for recent misdeeds, concocts a kilt-clad swindle involving top-shelf whisky.
