"Having been there ( secretly listening to radio Caroline under the pillow as a youngster) and growing up to the music of the sixties, it was both nostalgic and funny." http://www.odeon.co.uk/fanatic/film_info/m11601/The_Boat_That_Rocked/
"In Whitehall, thin-lipped minister Kenneth Branagh – wearing specs like Burt Lancaster's in Sweet Smell of Success – has decreed that pirate radio must be routed. To this end he hires a mandarin to nobble the Radio Rock crew. The name of this mandarin? Twatt. And the name of his assistant? Miss Clitt. It makes the later Carry On films look like Sheridan. Truly, it's a chilling moment when you realise that this whole film is in the hands of a man who thinks "Twatt" is a hilarious name for a character." The Independent
The reviews will have influenced people on whether or not they went to see the film, or bought the bluray DVD etc. The mixed review response will have meant that many people that read the reviews would have been doubtful about the quality of the film, lessening the sales figures.
