The Boat That Rocked


The Boat That Rocked (2009).
Director Richard Curtis (love actually & Notting Hill) has made yet another amazing film!
In all honesty this film was wonderful and one of the best things to come out of British Film since Atonement. Every person cast in this film is an absolute LEGEND, including, Rhys Ifans, Bill Nighy, Nick Frost, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Rhys Darby and Kenneth Branagh to name just a few. It was pretty much a laugh a minute film, but also tugged quite hard on the ol' heart strings. 
"The Boat That Rocked" is a comedy about 1960's rock and roll, and a band of rogue DJ's who captivated britain, playing the music which defined the generation and standing up to the government. 
5 stars of course! Felt happy for hours after leaving the cinema :D

* Would like to add that this film had ALOT of publicity, many different posters for the film, different ones for each character ect.

** Would also like to add that thanks to my little obsession with 'fandom' i found out that lead actor Tom Sturridge is best friends with Rob Pattinson (twilight).
