Chicago Cinema Circuit
[The film] features some stirring performances and a strong sense of place in its depiction of working-class Newcastle.

Johns makes it all bearable. Inviting, even. His performance has such a gentle humanity, even (especially) in the darkest scenes that you can't turn away.

Rating: 9/10 --
I've laughed and cried at many a movie. But few have inspired such a violent physical reaction as I, Daniel Blake.

Unseen Films
3.5 stars out of 4 -- Loach is nothing if not a humanist, one who sees what should unite us all in times of duress, and this is arguably one of his best and most accessible movies to date.
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3/4 --
Whichever side you come down on, Johns' and Squires' low-key performances are impressive, and the technological/red-tape hurdles their characters face feel stingingly accurate.

Seattle Times
I, DANIEL BLAKE is one of Loach’s finest films, a drama of tender devastation that tells its story with an unblinking neorealist simplicity that goes right back to the plainspoken purity of Vittorio De Sica.
