Great movie. Saw it when I was younger and loved it. Was glad to find it here on Best Buy by chance

I've loved this movie since it came out almost 25 years ago. Christian Slater plays alienated teen who takes to the airwaves on a shortwave radio set with a mixture of cool songs and plain talk about the struggles of teenage life and soon finds he has a following amongst his fellow students, which threatens the status quo at his tightly run high school. Great soundtrack, acting and dialogue, the premise is interesting and even if it rushes to wrap things up at the end it doesn't go for the obligatory happy ending. One of Christian Slater's best performances, which along with Heathers and True Romance had him at the top of young actors in the late 80's and early 90's. He has several monologues in this which are terrific.

My thoughts on purchasing this movie was that it was going to be dated and not as cool as I remember. I was wrong. most of the topics are still relevant today minus the technology. plus, Christian Slater. I really enjoyed it. Aged well
