An off-kilter, steampunk blend of Disney, The Handmaids Tale and The Stepford Wives, writer/director Alice Waddington's feature debut is entirely as intriguing as that sounds. February 8, 2020 | Full Review…

Every shot of Paradise Hills is otherworldly in its beauty. I'm not sure how it "reads" as a narrative, but as a visual work of art, a tone poem, and a riff on some familiar but evergreen themes it makes one stand and applaud. November 13, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Narrated with unusual elegance, with excellent performances from the entire female cast, and gifted with a perverse and twisted flair, this is one of the most unique debuts of Spanish cinema in years. [Full Review in Spanish] November 8, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

There's no tension as to where things are going to end up, the final images leaving me cold. November 4, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Give it up for "Paradise Hills" for swinging for the fences when it comes to bat-bleep crazy. November 2, 2019 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

The visuals are certainly trippy enough, but they start to feel like distractions included to keep you from noticing the shallowness of the screenplay and the fairly uninspired direction. November 1, 2019 | Full Review…

A disappointingly half-baked riff on The Stepford Wives whose brand of feminism feels more 1970s than 2010s. October 31, 2019 | Full Review…

Despite being an empowering film that Waddington hopes to inspire young girls of all backgrounds and personalities, the plot fumbles ever so slightly with limited development. October 30, 2019 | Full Review…

This is a film that, if I was 15-years-old and having a sleepover with my friends, I would 100 percent want to put on. October 28, 2019 | Full Review…

Paradise Hills has pacing issues, and a made-for-TV feel it can't quite escape. A firmer grasp of tone would've benefited the narrative. Yet its creators' boundless imagination carries it through the rougher patches. October 28, 2019 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review…
