Press clippings

Richard Curtis plunges headfirst into the Swinging Sixties with this flimsy comedy about a pirate radio station. This colourful period of history should have provided a wealth of rich material but Curtis fails to pull it together with any coherence. There are funny moments though, with flamboyant personalities including Rhys Ifans and Bill Nighy.
