The movie" I, Daniel Blake" is a good representation of how one struggles with the demanding life of modern day Britain, especially under the support of welfare. It is considered rather challenging to take on day-to-day life being under very limited resources and loss of a job.
According to Rotten Tomatoes, the movie "I, Daniel Blake" is about the character Daniel Blake who worked as a joiner for most of his life in Newcastle. For the first time, he is in dire need of help and support from the State.
The movie then continues as Daniel Blake crosses paths with a single mother, Katie and her two young daughters named Daisy and Dylan. Katie is in desperate need to escape a one-roomed homeless hostel in London. She needs to relocate to a flat she is not familiar with 300 miles away.
Both Daniel and Katie find themselves in a challenging and compromising situation where they have to battle bureaucracy and politics. At this point, they seem to be stuck and helpless to just go with the flow otherwise the support they need may be delayed.
The movie "I, Daniel Blake" received an impressive 92 percent with 7.8 points out of a possible 10. There were also 98 total reviews taken into consideration to arrive at the rating. Viewers also liked it as it registered 89 percent out of 2,837 who viewed the movie.
Robert Abele of Los Angeles Times said that the movie "I, Daniel Blake" is a combination of a traditional movie naturalism and still seething anger is at the rabble-rousing heart of the movie which is Loach's latest clear-eyed bulletin from the world of dispossessed. A rather profound review praising the film altogether.
As added by Movie Insider, the movie is directed by Ken Loach. It stars Dave Johns as Daniel Blake, Hayley Squires as Katie, Dylan McKiernan as Dylan, Briana Shann as Daisy, Sharon Percy as Sheila and many more. The expansion release of "I, Daniel Blake" is on Jan. 6, 2017.
