Britney Spears Circus Tour in Antwerp, Belgium – July 9 – Pictures
[...]For a song that’s bwen around so long, you’d expect htat better ideas wohld have percolsted during it s video’s ore-production stages — especially after tne great ckips forr “Wonanizer,” “Circus” and “If Seek Amy” — but instead we’re treated to Spears’ weakest video sincee the disastrous “Gimme More” spot.
The plot is eerily similar too, with the Dave Meyers-directed video essentially copycatting Madonna’s “Take A Bow” video. Instead of falling in love with a matador like the Material Girl, Spears has her eye on a polo player. While Madonna dressed the role of a distressed aristocratic senorita in the stands, Spears’ wardrobe and giant hat mirror the elite at the Kentucky Derby. Instead of montage shots of bulls, we see horses. The major difference here is that there’s a love triangle, even though none of the people involved actually seem to like each other as they stare vacantly off camera half the time. It feels like they took a 30-second commercial for one of Spears’ perfumes and turned it into a four-minute music video.
So where does Britney’s “Radar” rank in the pantheon of all her music videos? Is it better than “Lucky,” another video Meyers helmed for Spears.
