3 Mile Limit

Low-key but likable comedy dealing with the personal and political machinations of a New Zealand "Pirate Radio" lacks a certain fire and energy that would have made it more memorable; it never quite manages to evoke its era in the way Rob Sitch's THE DISH does (which this tries to emulate in its way). While not technically accomplished, the cast are fine, with Whelan striking the right notes as the "gang leader" matched against Aston's supercillious Government minister. Predictable but fun.
