Summary: Talk hard!
Review: Wow! I just watched this movie for the first time and it is definetly a keeper. Looking for a high school teen-angst movie but can't stand "Clueless" and other silly chick flicks? This ones for you. Out there and making a statement is what it's all about. The guys will love it for the music and the wonderful shots of Samantha Mathis and the ladies will melt for Christian Slater.

Summary: A great film full of humour, rebellion and reality!
Review: I first saw this movie when I was a teenager and now I'm in my late twenties. It still affects me the same way every time I watch it - I still get that rebellious feeling. Its the story of a shy kid who becomes Hard Harry on his pirate radio station by night. A boy fighting boredom, fighting suburban monotony and a school ran by a tyrant. His commentaries on life are really on target, he tells it like it is and the kids love his message. I think its the rarest of films in that its still enjoyable ten years later. Though it takes place in a different decade, it still has the same intensity it did for me then. I think everyone should watch it including teens now. Its a great film that I highly recommend to anyone sick of teen films that aren't realistic. This one stays with you long after its over.

Summary: A movie for everyone...
Review: This film is uplifting and should be for everyone; The whole family should se this together. I have seen this a ton of times, and it still hits you heart everytime you see it. The message is that everyone should except everyone for who they are and what they are. The film is about a teenager who moves with his family to Arizona unwilling, he is sort of an out cast, not trying to make friends with any of the students, uses a broadcast radio to broadcast a pirate radio show. He tells the stories of how corrupt the school is, and how the principle meistreats the students to raise her standing. Christan Slater plays this role beautifly, showing people not to back down and to "Talk Hard". I know I am repeating myself but, this is just a great flick and is so worth seeing. The DVD atleast had a trailer and cast list, which is minimal, but is exeptable. I hope for a Special Edition, with a message from the stars, but that is just wishful thinking. A great film, definatly worth seeing, if you do or do not agree, email me for any and all of my reviews. Talk Hard... Thank you for reading. Have a good one! Ryan

Summary: A legend in all of our minds
Review: Ten years after, "Pump Up the Volume" holds up brilliantly as a glimpse of American youth culture. While the film is uneven (the best parts are "Harry's" radio interludes), it suggests that even in a time of plenty, growing up is just as difficult - maybe more so - than it ever was (especially when all the great themes have been used and turned into theme parks!). The one lingering disappointment I have with this film is that neither director Allan Moyle nor star Christian Slater have yet lived up to the promise they showed in this film. But there's still time.

Summary: CHRISTIAN SLATER PUMPS UP THE VOLUME IN STYLE!
Review: Well what can I say? I love this movie. If I ever feel down or just feel normal, this movie manages to get a smile on my face. It is so full of life and almost makes you wish that the secret DJ Harry would broadcast his show to you. Christian Slater plays the part with skill and keeps you intrigued right to the end. What a groovy movie!

Summary: SO BE IT!
Review: I loved this movie so much. I can always watch this and know I'll be in a good mood. The acting is great and so is the writing. I loved Christian Slater before this movie, and even more after. I saw it first with my Girl Scout troop and now I'm dying to own it. If you're looking for a movie with good acting, humorous scenes and actual real life situations, this is the movie for you.
