Struggling against the passing of her father, who has been died 20 years ago, the thing that frustrates her, as she cannot get along with the matter, Raimy Sullivan, a young courageous and intelligent girl, has listened to her father's voice in his old ham radio, the thing that manages her to communicate with him.
Hey, we're not watching television for the realistic aspects, not even when we watch reality TV. So, once we're on board with the ham-radio-bridging-two-decades premise, there's a lot to like about Frequency.
The most urgent problem is that Frequency is based on source material that was already derivative, a grab bag of tropes borrowed from movies including Back to the Future, Sliding Doors and Ghost.
I'm a sucker for these stories, and this one hit all the right notes. Peyton List and Riley Smith do a wonderful job as father and daughter over the airwaves.
