hahah is kinda of boring because we always expect a "dance" video from Britney, but at least she looks so good.. and it looks very expencive :S also. dont know why the directors after circus dont come with better concepts.. jake nava (my prerogative) , now dave (boys, lucky, and curious commercial)
The video has a simple concept. It's nice. I think Britney looks absolutely amazing in this video. Stunning to say the least. Overall, I like the video and its kind of what I expected after seeing those leaked pics from the set of the music video. It's better than the "If U Seek Amy" music video. I also thought the direction was perfect and Dave Meyers definitely worked excellently with the money provided to make this music video. Good effort by him and Britney.

I REALLY like the video! I love that she went with a polo theme, go Britney!!! She looks really sexy in the begining with her boots, I love a girl in long boots!!!!
I wanna go sign up for Polo classes now, I've always wanted to do that.

Even though it's well done and with great costume design, it's just so utterly predictable and extremely disconnected to the song, and it's visual concept lacks perosnality, it looks and it's paced like any other video from any other artist. Too bad. This song is one that would allow to take some risks in the video.
She really should've gone with "Unusual You" and try a director she hadn't worked with before but that have good ideas, like Mark Romanek or Chris Cunningham. It could've been amazing.
Dave Meyers is boring. Not bad, just boring.

This video is so boring , so disconnected with the song; its a great video for a ballad, being in summer, competing with "Lovegame", " Paparazzi" and songs by Black Eyed Peas , this should be a killer video that helps increase the sales of the album which is still selling well worldwide, I think this is the last single of Circus.

I'm going to have to agree with you. The video is very predictable and definitely went the "SAFE" route this time around. That's what's expected from Britney's camp this era as they really worked their magic to re-establish a good image for Britney once again. The video is not terrible, it's actually directed well but the overall concept and vision for it could definitely have been better.
I think this is the last single from the regular "Circus" album. She'll probably re-release the album for the fall. Expect a brand new single in September/October to promote the re-release.
If they decide to choose another single here then I think they'll go with "Out From Under" or "Kill The Lights".

Wow, that "Radar" video is boring. It's shot nicely and Britney looks good, but what a letdown. And is it me or is it so the wrong single to be released next. It feels dated (maybe that's because it's from the last album after all).
Im certainly sure that if "Kill the ligths" was released instead of "Radar" the album sales will increase and can reach the top 10 again, "Radar" the song thanks to the video is very forgetable now.
The "Radar" video just has a ballad feel to it: the slo-mo shots, the long cuts, etc. Britney looks gorgeous, but "Radar" needed something futuristic and dance-y.
