What to Know

Critics Consensus

Paradise rounds up an impressive array of talent on either side of the camera -- all of whom would presumably prefer that audiences forget their involvement in this misfire.

2/4
The movie goes nowhere, and Ms. Cody's screenplay is relentlessly talky while standing still. Go to Full Review
Brian Tallerico HollywoodChicago.com Oct 21, 2013
1.0/5.0
Hough sleepwalks through Cody's worst effort to date as a writer and only supporting turns by the always-game Russell Brand and never-bad Octavia Spencer save the film from being a strong candidate for the worst of the year. It still comes close. Go to Full Review
Kyle Smith New York Post Oct 18, 2013
2/4
Cody's satiric knocks on Christians couldn't be more blundering and obvious. Yet her dialogue is often funny, and the unusual three-way friendship is refreshing. Go to Full Review
Rita Cannon Battleship Pretension Feb 16, 2021
Paradise claims to be the story of young woman's crisis of faith and subsequent rebirth, but in execution, it feels more like a story about someone who was in a bad mood for a while but eventually got over it. Go to Full Review
Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Aug 29, 2019
Frustrating in its incredible lack of authenticity or genuine emotion, Paradise is a lamb best left to slaughter. Go to Full Review
Stephen Saito Moveable Fest Nov 30, 2018
Cody remains a singular voice for complex characters we don't often see onscreen, steadfast and smart, if usually way out of their depth. Go to Full Review
