Read our privacy policy Netflix viewers are split over the streaming service’s latest top-ranking film, a sequel to the 2023 British hit Bank of Dave. What a tremendous actor Rory Kinnear is.” Another tagged Fishwick himself, commenting: “Watching Bank of Dave 2. Thank you!” Money man: Rory Kinnear in ‘Bank of Dave 2’ “Netflix absolutely smashed it out the park with Bank of Dave 2: The Loan Ranger,” someone else remarked. Ken Loach-style didactic social realism is all well and good, but Loan Ranger looks as if it was shot on a block of processed cheese and written with a bucket and mop.” The Guardian, meanwhile, awarded the film three stars, with critic Cath Clarke writing: “Like the first film, Bank of Dave 2 is predictable and cliché-ridden but gets by on likable, heartfelt performances, and the knowledge that in real life some of this stuff actually happened.” Bank of Dave 2: The Loan Ranger is available to stream now on Netflix.
