I have just seen this great movie today, and was surprised to see no topic on RM. Apparently, it is only out in the US in August.

It is a British comedy about rock DJ's living on a boat in the North Sea, broadcasting a pirate radio in 1966. The soundtrack is excellent, and the cast is stellar, full of familiar faces: Philip Seymour Hoffman, Kenneth Branagh, Bill Nighy, Nick Forst (Simon Pegg's buddy in Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz), Katherine Parkinson & Chris O'Dowd (from TV The IT Crowd), Rhys Darby (Murray, the manager of the Flight of the Conchords), ...

Definitively a feel good movie.

I loved this movie. Such a great cast, love the absurd politicians.
