Pirate Radio - (57% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes) Pick of the Week
8 DJs love affair with Rock n Roll changed the world forever. In the 1960s a group of rouge DJs, on a boat in the middle of the Northern Atlantic, played rock records and broke the law all for the love of music. Critical consensus says the film lacks genuine rock & roll raunch, but Richard "Love, Actually" Curtis' ode to the offshore radio stations of 1960s Britain has enough laughs and great tunes to stay smoothly afloat.
2012 - (37% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes)
Actual description from Rotten Tomatoes: " Roland Emmerich has given movie watchers several apocalyptic films in the past in INDEPENDENCE DAY and THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW, and he offers another look at the end of the world in 2012. This action film stars John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Amanda Peet." Inspiring stuff huh? They don't even reference a story or anything. Critics are saying Roland Emmerich's 2012 provides plenty of visual thrills, but lacks a strong enough script to support its massive scope and inflated length.
