Firstpost

By the end, whose side you are on speaks volumes about who you are as a person than of the film itself. The film brings about this reflection of self, and of society with poignancy and that more than anything makes Paradise a winner.

Rated: 3.5/5

Prathyush Parasuraman

Film Companion

Together, with Mathew, she produces a portrait of a compelling, broken-in, and fragile marriage, which until now, in the wild, was never allowed to be challenged or questioned.

Saibal Chatterjee

NDTV

Unswerving in its grasp of both philosophy and psychology, Prasanna Vithanage's Paradise is a masterly evocation of the frailty of 'man' when faced with a crisis.

Rated: 4.5/5
