Pirate Radio is the high-spirited story of how 8 DJs love affair with Rock n Roll changed the world forever. In the 1960s this group of rouge DJs, on a boat in the middle of the Northern Atlantic, played rock records and broke the law all for the love of music. The songs they played united and defined an entire generation and drove the British government crazy. By playing Rock n Roll they were standing up against the British government who did everything in their power to shut them down. The band of rebels is lead by The Count, played by Philip Seymour Hoffman, Quentin the boss of Radio Rock, Gavin the greatest DJ in Britian, Midnight Mark, Doctor Dave and Young Carl who comes of age amidst the chaos of sex, drugs and rock n roll.
I really enjoyed this movie. It was a lot of fun. The characters are all eclectic and great. The music was awesome. There really isn't that major of a storyline, but the music and character interaction are so great that you really don't care.
I'd definitely recommend people checking this movie out. Its just a simple, fun, enjoyable time at the movies.
