Javascript this.form.submit() with radio button

i have this star rating system for my webpage, where you can select a star rating (1-5) and i wanted to send the form when someone clicks any of the stars, but right now, it does not send the radio button value if i check something, i think its because it sends the form before it checks the radio button. Is there any better way to send the form with the radio button value onclick?

<form method="POST" action="/rating" accept-charset="UTF-8"><input name="_token" type="hidden" value="vySkIFDPujcmxjfs83m3OwojcbPIaHuuMhKvVErx">

        <input name="movie_id" type="hidden" value="2">


        <input id="star5" name="rating" type="radio" value="5">
        <label for="star5" class="full" title="Awesome" onclick="this.form.submit()"> </label>


        <input id="star4" name="rating" type="radio" value="4">
        <label for="star4" class="full" title="Good" onclick="this.form.submit()"> </label>


        <input id="star3" name="rating" type="radio" value="3">
        <label for="star3" class="full" title="Mediocre" onclick="this.form.submit()"> </label>


        <input id="star2" name="rating" type="radio" value="2">
        <label for="star2" class="full" title="Bad" onclick="this.form.submit()"> </label>


        <input id="star1" name="rating" type="radio" value="1">
        <label for="star1" class="full" title="Horrible" onclick="this.form.submit()"> </label>

        </form>

Use onchange on the <input /> elements instead:

<form method="POST" action="/rating" accept-charset="UTF-8"><input name="_token" type="hidden" value="vySkIFDPujcmxjfs83m3OwojcbPIaHuuMhKvVErx">

  <input name="movie_id" type="hidden" value="2">

  <label for="star5" class="full" title="Awesome">
<input id="star5" name="rating" type="radio" value="5" onchange="this.form.submit()">
  </label>

  <label for="star4" class="full" title="Good">
<input id="star4" name="rating" type="radio" value="4" onchange="this.form.submit()">
  </label>

  <label for="star3" class="full" title="Mediocre">
<input id="star3" name="rating" type="radio" value="3" onchange="this.form.submit()">
  </label>

  <label for="star2" class="full" title="Bad">
<input id="star2" name="rating" type="radio" value="2" onchange="this.form.submit()">
  </label>

  <label for="star1" class="full" title="Horrible">
<input id="star1" name="rating" type="radio" value="1" onchange="this.form.submit()">
  </label>

</form>
