Moral Movies are not always the best movies

Rating: 5/10 (20 April 2006)

The movie Radio is a movie that deals with the morality of how society treats the less fortunate. Radio is treated with justice by the head football coach-and their loving and affectionate relationship is inspiring. However this is not necessarily the basis of a good movie. The film moves slowly, and is very predictable in it's ending. Some parts of the movie are actually a bit boring. However Cuba Gooding does a superb job as an actor-but when the script doesn't give you much to work with, it still can't save the movie. If you're looking for a heartwarming tale about a relationship-this isn't it. The Football scenes are rushed into the movie, (it seems they wanted to copy Remember the Titans, but failed)and the overall conflict in the movie? Well there is none. In fact Coach Jones even admits he "doesn't know why he is helping Radio." I'm afraid the screenwriter didn't know either.
