The Boat That Rocks.... (the review)....

After a painstaking effort to stay awake for the duration of the movie, the verdict; for the generations that grow up on a staple diet of The Beatles, The Kinks, The Wonders, Carpenters etc. you gotta run bro, run. Hurry cause the DVD is limited (at least until the officer of the Kementerian Perdagangan comes a calling...). For those who grows on Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Duran-Duran, Spandau Ballet (like yours truly he he he), hmmm you might like the wits and banters and reminisce of the songs that your brothers or fathers had been telling you about. For the post Nirvana generations until todays young adults, dont waste your money on this DVD. Go on and topup your credit instead. Its about a pirate radio station operated from a ship in the North Sea playing songs otherwise would not be heard on BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation - a distant cousin of our RTM). It tells us something about life, relationship, commitment, freedom and stuff that had been plaguing the generation. The nicest thing about it is the movie managed to do it without being too preachy..... hmmm if I could learn something from it will be great!
Well, one down, another movie to go..... Land of The Lost.....
