Richard Curtis,the genius behind Four Weddings,Bridget Jones movies,Love Actually, and Notting Hill brings another British comedy with an all-star cast led by Philip Seymour Hoffman, Bill Nighy, Rhys Ifans and Kenneth Branagh.
Plot:It's 1966-pop music's finest era-and a bunch of ramshackle DJs play rock & roll 24 hours a day, broadcasting from Radio Rock, an infamous pirate radio station inside a ship in the North Sea.
Review:It has the same elements Richard Curtis did in his previous movies. A colorful group of friends, a lone American among Brits, and British humor. There must be something about British comedies that differ itself from any Hollywood/American comedy which I find original.There's a new heartrob in the movie(Tom Sturridge). In the story, he's not a lone protagonist which is like what Curtis did in Love Actually. I have nothing against Hugh Grant but I don't think there's a role that will fit him in this movie. If you cast Hugh Grant here,casting him would clash with the other actors. I love Bill Nighy and Rhys Ifans performance. Nighy and Ifans showed acting that was not really identified or what was popularized by them.
