Watch Club Paradise For Free

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

I am very surprised that this is only rated as not even a 5 out of 10 on the IMDb scoring meter. This movie isn't as good as Schindler's List or anything obviously but it's not supposed to be, it is just a fun silly comedy movie and for what it is supposed to be it is a good movie and fun to watch.Robin Williams is doing his usual stuff in this or at least the stuff he used to do all the time with the manic comic over acting and zany character work.Peter O'Toole is Peter O'Toole and he is awesome in everything he has ever done including some great comedy work including this movie, Club Paradise.Take it for what it's worth and have a nice simple laugh watching a fun Harold Ramis movie!

This is possibly one of Robin Williams' lesser known movies, but it is quite good. Williams plays Jack Moniker, a jaded firefighter who retires to a small Caribbean island named St. Nicholas. A pretty good cast,which includes, Twiggy, Rick Moranis, Gene Levy, Peter O'Toole, Joanna Cassidy and Jimmy Cliff. Robin Williams is a wee bit subdued in this, not a lot of his familiar quick one liners, he's still funny though. Without giving the plot away, the movie involves holiday resorts, beach bars, corruption and chaos. It was shot in Jamaica and it looks good. The highlight of the movie are, the great Reggae music, performed by Jimmy Cliff, the madcap antics of the character, Linda White, played by Andrea Martin and Joe Flahery's role as a wacky aircraft pilot. The down side is seeing the great Peter O'Toole looking so poorly. His health was obviously not the best when they made this movie. Other than that, this is funny movie.

Injured while risking his life to save an angry German shepherd, Chicago Firefighter Jack Moniker retires and moves to a small Caribbean island named St. Nicholas.Allegedly, this film was originally supposed to star Bill Murray and John Cleese (I assume instead of Robin Williams and Peter O'Toole). I am not a big Williams fan and would have loved to see some Bill Murray. Peter O'Toole and John Cleese -- how to decide? One is clearly known more for humor, but they are both classy, reputable actors.What makes this film memorable (and there are not many things that do) are the nipples of Eugene Levy. Large, pink blobs surrounded by a sea of fuzz. I am a furry guy, so I am not knocking the hair... but what are those pink blobs? They seem to have a bigger role in this film than Rick Moranis.

I used to like Robin Williams. As time has gone on I've come to realize that perhaps I don't very much. When he's funny, he's hilarious. When he isn't. . . it's embarrassing. And CLUB PARADISE is one of the worst films he's made, which is saying something. It's hard to imagine that something so bad could have been directed by Harold Ramis (usually a rather reliable director/writer).The cast all look awkward and the jokes are forced and unfunny. I think CLUB PARADISE is probably one of the only comedies I can think of that doesn't even really entertain on some sort of level. No, it's not totally awful, but it's not amusing which is a huge flaw for any "comedy." 1.5/5 stars
