Review of Pump Up the Volume (1990) by Gloria%20 F — 25 Jun 2018

This is a good teen movie full of themes of rebellion, romance and good music. Christian Slater is a great choice- he was a heartthrob and along with the film Heathers he was in huge demand. He's also a likeable actor despite having what appears to be a cocky demeanor.

Of course, I did not see this as a teenager or anywhere near that age and perhaps it would have a bigger impact on me what with its themes of free speech, finding oneself and liberty- all the issues of teenage hood.

But regardless, I can see why this film continues to be popular. Give it a watch and you'll be surprised. Great soundtrack too.
