The Paradise Review
The Free Press Journal reviewer gave The Paradise 1.5 stars and wrote, “While the film is a visual treat for all Nani fans, some might be disappointed with the film in totality due to the not-so-relevant and slightly unbelievable narrative. Skipping this film seems a better option for those who do not prefer hardcore violence and spineless action!”
