Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 1.5/5 --
A preposterously self-serving variation on 1960's themes.
New York Times
Rating: 3/5 --
Completely of its time.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
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
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
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?)

Time Out
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:
Michael Brandon (Four Flies on Grey Velvet) stars as Jeff Dugan, the ultra-cool program director at Q-SKY Radio, LA's number one rock station. The airwaves crackle with the delectable sound of smooth rock in FM, a riotous comedy about the heady world of late-70s US radio.
