I'm not sure you are right in saying that movies are typically rendered with radiosity. Global illumination, yes. Radiosity only deals with diffuse surfaces, not specular reflection or arbitrary BRDFs, right?

Radiosity is a form of global illumination, so I'm not sure what you mean when you say global illumination.
Renderers for film use path tracing these days.
