Movie Info

Robin Williams' comic shtick sabotages any attempt at comic development in Harold Ramis' patchy comedy farce Club Paradise. Williams plays Jack Moniker, a Chicago fireman injured in the line of duty, who uses his disability money to open up a run-down Caribbean resort. Jack eagerly awaits the planeload of tourists who will be his first patrons. This group of low-rent jackanapes include Barry Nye (Rick Moranis) and Barry Steinberg (Eugene Levy), a couple of horny geek bachelors; Phillipa Lloyd

Feels like it was inspired by a People Magazine article, and stretched out into feature length through the dubious overuse of sketch-type comedy droppings.

A word of warning: these leftovers are rotten.

Don't expect too much more from this film than a few chuckles and a soundtrack which mixes some delectable reggae and rock music.

The most embarassing movie Peter O'Toole ever graced.

Audience Reviews for Club Paradise

Club Paradise is a fascinating watch but only because it's such a mess. It has an interesting collective cast and an excellent setting but the story makes no sense and the directions is diabolical. It's very much of its time though, a period piece if you will, pure 80's. Robin Williams isn't at his best but Peter O'Toole is quite funny. The film was originally intended to star Bill Murray and John Cleese - now I'd love to have seen that version! Andrea Martin's scenes were pretty funny though.
