There is neither a screenplay nor a script in this movie. What it has and so exasperatingly boasts off of are a plot with some good message and current affairs, and average cast performance.
Absurd editing along with torturous background score kills you all through the long running time. The pace in the first half is very slow, while in the second half, it picks up to make everything scrambled. Characters emerge and flashbacks are narrated without any emotions. The plot gives out a good message about the plight of solo women breadwinners in Kerala, but the execution is what makes it pure disaster. A merciless 1.6/10 for this attempt.
The producer's previous film, "Passenger" was very good because it had a story & thrilled its audience. But Radio stumbles in its own foundation. Poor cinematography & meaningless dialogs further chafes the movie-watching experience.
BOTTOM LINE: A timid film which can be easily done without. Not recommended.
Can be watched with a typical Indian family? YES
