GM M Woeful, laughable and ultimately forgettable. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/11/23 Full Review Peter W Overall, what begins with a promising premise quickly gets cheesy and uninteresting. Watching a happy couple renovating with an unwanted, homeless person living underneath the home felt like it could be fun and thrilling. Unfortunately, not a lot worked for me here as a viewer.  This was a painful experience as the leads themselves are unlikeable, and seriously, how hard can it be to kick an unwelcomed guest from a house?  It's crammed with side plots and predictable moments, and the quality of the plot and performances feel like a low-quality TV movie. If you're in the mood for a film that is cheesy, sleazy and somewhat trashy, then a trip to Paradise Cove might be worth a view. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 04/29/23 Full Review brad p Paradise Cove isn't going to win any awards for originality but Kristin Bauer van Straten's performance makes the feature more enjoyable. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member In this psychological thriller , we see the new home owners come face to face with Bree (brilliantly played by True Blood's Kristen Bauer Van Straten) who has decided that their home is her home and she isn't going anywhere. This Martin Guigui directed thriller keeps you on the edge of your seat and will have you talking and shouting at your screen (I love films that make you do that) as you see the pressure cooker plot turn itself up to boiling point. Whilst the plot isnt the same, Paradise Cove jots love letters to classic thrillers such as Pacific Heights, Single White Female and Fatal Attraction and with its 100% grounded in reality storyline (brilliantly written by Sherry Klein), this type of the film is the most terrifying of all the film genres I watch. What do you do when someone legally puts themselves somewhere you don't want them to do and says ‘No' when you ask them to leave. With a perfect cast, stunning locations, and a brilliant cinematic use of more of less a single location. Martin and his crew have crafted a thriller that not only will I be recommending for several years, but is also a great example of how to make a film using a small amount of characters in a small amount of locations, and keeping 100% engaged for its running time. Paradise Cove is a film that all thriller fans will adore.
