You Will Understand This Movie Better After Watching It

Rating: 1/10 (30 July 2007)

This was the second movie that Cuba Gooding Jr. played a mentally retarded person. The movie was supposed to take place in 1976. But by 1976, mentally retarded people were educated in schools. The movie made it seem like Radio never went to school a day in his life. Actually the events in the movie took place from 1964 to 1976, not just 1976. In the scene when the star athlete told Radio to go into the girl's locker room, I bet it was those other athletes who were laughing who snitched on the star athlete. It was sad that Radio's mother died. It is amazing that Radio is still at that school today. Cuba could act. But overall, this was not a good movie.
