From my 3.15.18 Varietyreview: “Think of it as a piece of anti-nostalgia. Paradox, a waste of time made bearable only by its brevity, plays
like a bad acid flashback from the 1970s, a time when similarly self-conscious
trippy pastiches of rock music and genre conventions proliferated on the midnight-movie
circuit. Think of Zachariah or Rainbow Bridge, no matter how hard
you’ve tried to forget them, and you’ll have some idea what awaits you here.
And if you’ve never seen those films, well, consider yourself fortunate. You
might do well to keep your lucky streak going.”
Paradox
now is available for streaming on Netflix. You can read the rest of my Variety
review here.
