Featured review
Mazzello and Wood control this good drama.
When I saw the imaginative drama "Radio Flyer", immediately perceived the enormous talent of Joseph Mazzello and Elijah Wood. The children control this movie. By the way, Mazzello is the best young actor of Hollywood. As regards Donner's film, is perfectly familiar; sometimes tense, but always captivating! I appreciated Joe Mazzello's performance and I detailed Wood as his brother Mike.
