n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

I had to watch this movie in class. As movies I've been forced to watch in class, this is one of the better ones. Everything in this movie is done extremely well. The acting is good as well as the cinematography and plot progression. This movie is worth watching. That being said, there are some annoying scenes (like the one where a radio is playing perfectly even though its sitting in a pile of mud during a rainstorm). Overall though, I enjoyed this movie.

The story of a high school coach and the developmentally challenged man who he took under his wing. Thanks to an amazing perfomance from both Cuba Gooding Jr. and Ed Harris "Radio" is a football drama like no other which each scene and meaning mean more than anyone would expect. (A+)

this movie will do a lot of things to you. it will make you laugh, make you cry. teach people not to judge a book by its cover. truly a masterpiece. this movie is about a high school football coach (ed Harris) takes a mentally challenged person named radio (Cuba gooding Jr.) and sort of becomes a father figure to him. a great performance by both actors and i think it was wrong to over look Cuba gooding Jr. and ed Harris for the academy awards. this movie is defidently Oscar worthy. i was flipping channels and i couldn't take my eyes off of it. i think that this being a true story makes it more important to people and more interesting. it was a movie that i thought would never be made but Cuba gooding Jr. gave huge commitment and found this role very important in my opinion. same with ed Harris. defidently next to men of honor and instinct this is Cuba gooding Jr's best performance. see it.

Radio is among one of my favourites from Cuba Gooding Jr. Radio is a truly touching, motivating and inspirational true-story, lead by a underrated performance by Cuba Gooding Jr. Many people claim Cuba's character roll execution as 'way over done' or 'just, plain, stupid.' Sorry I disagree. Cuba had to act as one character who is still alive today, who is also classified as a little 'slow'. He had to put on a accurate, un-offending performance in order to make this movie go well. In my eyes he did a fine job and the supporting actors did as well. The movie has a little bit of everything; comedy, drama and a feel-good appreciated ending.
