   Radius has a great Twilight Zone premise. A man wakes up with amnesia and finds people and animals die in proximity to him, within a certain (all together now) radius. As he struggles to figure out what's happening, how it's happening, and how he can keep himself from killing anyone, he meets someone who seems immune to his abilities. The mystery deepens. This Canadian cheapie shot in Manitoba (but sadly not played AS Manitoba, does the American market really NEED this to be set on the East Coast which looks nothing like that?!) is extremely intriguing, until the third act when the plot definitely goes pear-shaped. While the twist does, in a way, link to the situation in a metaphorical way - which I want - it feels more than a little hackneyed. Mileage may vary, so I won't spoil it. I'm just saying the answers aren't half as interesting as the questions. Oh well. Good try though. Very nearly satisfying. 4 years 11 months ago

   Poteva finire in un modo meno drammatico, sarebbe bastato un po' di buon senso ed andarsi a costituire.
   Alla fine del film l'uomo aveva qualche motivo in meno per costituirsi ma, certo, il finale poteva essere diverso.
   Immagino che tutti gli animali uccisi non siano realmente morti, però la capra legata per fare la scena non è stata di mio gradimento.
   Anche il modo in cui vengono considerati gli animali, ovvero sacrificabili per una banale dimostrazione, non mi piace come mentalità.
   Forse ha fatto bene a spararsi.
