Entertainment Reviews:
FM, for all its ingratiating players, is an unredeemable mess that can't even make it to simplistic.

Parallax View
Embarrassing youth cult film, founded on the shaky premise that the staff of a "progressive" LA rock station have to fight their management for the right to play Olivia Newton-John.

Chicago Reader
Rating: 2/4 --
Mull, as a spaced-out DJ, steals the show, emanating energy with which neither the other actors nor the music can compete.

TV Guide
Dugan, who's heavily into the music biz, is against commercials on commercial radio (but since QSKY pumps out an endless stream of Ronstadt, the Eagles and Queen, wouldn't a few mindless jingles go unnoticed?)
Full Review
Time Out
It gets the standard rock-movie formula backwards by trying to base a revolution around some of the safest, least revolutionary music in the history of rock.
AV Club
Rating: 2.5/4 --
The "us against the establishment" plotline is hoary and silly, and the movie fares better when it focuses on specific character incidents rather than any greater themes.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Jeff Dugan (Michael Brandon), L.A.'s top rock deejay and program director, presides over an eclectic family of co-workers that has blasted QSKY's popularity with listeners into the stratosphere. Unfortunately, Dugan's successful operational format is hit with a blizzard of static when the station's money-hungry corporate officers intervene and attempt to enforce major changes that would pull the plug on Dugan's maverick style. Thats when QSKY's deejays lock the doors, pump up the volume and spin a renegade revolt underscored by a non-stop rock'n'roll beat.
