Saving Paradise

It's a feel good movie. The intention was good but as much as it has the same recycled cliche message of the underdog coming up tops eventually or that of the prodigal son returning to save the town, I still hate the need to pencil in the fact that the general acting seemed pretty wooden stiff, abrupt and detached... all puns intended. All in all, a pretty decent 5 stars with a bonus 1 thrown in for the short but certainly not unexpected solo bedroom Royal disrobe of William Moseley to spice up the viewing. Hey, if you got the royal jewels of good looks and a hot bod, flaunt it till you make it. Fair job Will, on the constipated American accent. Lighten up, it sounds more natural if you erase that tension.

Whatever you could call it ("Hallmark type", "old fashioned", "in the spirit of the 70s", "cheesy movie", "sentimental lemonade", etc.), this is really a nice film that evokes positive emotions and, possibly, some tears despite its happy ending. There is no violence here, no sex, no vulgarity, no zombies and no intergalactic wars. P. S. George Steeves is really great in the role of an autistic employee! Watch this movie to feel much better!

This film is precisely what the universe needs right now... Saving Paradise is gripping and heartwarming from the jump... You will feel true connection with the characters, you will cry and you will cheer. A wonderful cast lead by William Moseley delivers a captivating performance. Brilliant writing and beautiful cinematography. This is a must see... You will be inspired. Congratulations to Jay Silverman and the entire cast, crew and production staff!

I love a movie where the story is based on giving and overcoming difficulty and hardships. "Saving Paradise" is this kind of film. There's plenty of suspense movies out there and sure those films are fun. "Saving Paradise" reminds us of how powerful we are when we join together and set our sights on the greater good. The film is well directed, beautifully filmed and and has a wonderful score.

Highly recommend!

William Moseley and Johanna Braddy were terrific together. Lawrence Pressman as well. Really the entire cast was outstanding. The movie was motivational without being corny. It really connected with me. Special mention to James Eckhouse who played the perfect Kevin O'Leary style villain.
