Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) Though the genre’s 1990s heyday is long gone, there is still a sizeable appetite for this sort of thing, as Bank of Dave’s success more than proves. But this is less Brassed Off than dashed off. Rated: 2/5 Jan 30, 2025 Full Review Jane Freebury Jane Freebury This weak and under-developed follow-up to a robust original with lots of popular appeal, doesn't seem to do justice to the real-life story it is based on either Rated: 2/5 Aug 16, 2025 Full Review Killian Faith-Kelly GQ Magazine [UK] It’s like the real story’s been passed through the filter of the child who tells his classmates he fought a dragon at the weekend. What’s most frustrating is that it doesn’t need to do this. Jan 16, 2025 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com While it remains likable enough, “The Loan Ranger” spends too much time away from its core message on monetary dangers, missing the overall educational value of the 2023 release. Rated: B- Jan 15, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Judy F Brilliant acting, great true David versus Goliath story. So infuriating how greed can reign and profit rule over integrity. It's often so hard for average people to cut through the corruption and go up against powerful and wealthy companies. Dave deserves medals and respect for the way he stood up against unscrupulous lenders - desperate people being trapped by interest rates of 1,000% and more Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/10/25 Full Review Lynda M This is a "lovely movie" a worth while feel good movie. You don't have to think too hard. A love story, goodies v badies with humor thanks to Rory Kinnear. I enjoyed the experience and that is all I wanted. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/24/25 Full Review sam l This movie is very good, the movie starts of being written the same way as the anz tv commericals, the movie of being written slightly weird, but then mellows out into quite an enjoyable movie also educating you on payday loan companies and how Dave stopped them in the uk Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/21/25 Full Review Wise O Love love love this, just as good as Bank of Dave 1! Let's hope there is a Bank of Dave 3! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/19/25 Full Review paul o Bank of Dave was a hard act to follow and, sadly this film didn’t and is a major disappointment. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/12/25 Full Review Will B Very enjoyable this, thought the first one was better but this was still a great film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/06/25 Full Review Read all reviews
