Pirate Radio Critic Reviews

  • "This is a message movie, and the message of Pirate Radio is pretty simple: All you need is love, and you can get by with a little help from your friends . . . even if you can't use anything from the Beatles catalog." Los Angeles Times

    - Betsy Sharkey

  • "This lightweight British comedy is set in 1966 and captures a sense of the era through its costumes, production design, dialogue and, above all, its top-notch soundtrack." USA Today

    - Claudia Puig

  • "Pic generally stays afloat on the strength of its characters but sometimes threatens to sink under its overlong running time and vignettish structure." Variety

    - Derek Elley
