About this movie

From the creator of Love Actually and Notting Hill comes a trip back to the freewheeling, free-loving, 60s when the very rock music that inspired a generation was censored by the government. When a group of rebellious deejays decides to defy the ban, they take to the seas to broadcast music and mayhem to millions of adoring fans. Featuring a soundtrack that includes The Who, The Kinks, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, The Rolling Stones and many more, it's a feel-great film based on a true story that critics cheer is " exuberant!" (John Powers, Vogue)

Ratings and reviews

Most of the original film is here but several key scenes have been cut for no apparent reason at least a few of them are plot relevant and none can be accused of being offensive compared to what was left in.

This is by far one of my favourite films and have watched it well over 40 times. Its got such a good soundtrack and the characters are awesome

One of my all time favourites, pity google has cut scenes from the movie
