Be he space traveller, madman and/or fish, Perry (and the film) are certifiably original.

Rated: 3/5

Time Out

So entranced with Perry's ramblings that it neglects the musical context.

Rated: 2/5

It's a shame, but Vision of Paradise isn't really a vision of paradise at all. Rather, its a mish-mash of ideas, cobbled together by a filmmaker who is so enthralled with his subject that he failed to find coherence among the unbridled creativity.

Rated: 2/5

Total Film

The real Perry gradually emerges, and his genius is all the more thrilling for it.

Rated: 4/5

PopMatters

There's doubtless a way one could produce a filmic account of Perry's eccentric vision that is respectful and illuminating, but Schaner's paternalistic approach strikes me as misguided-and a little cruel.

Rated: 2/10
