Jack Moniker (Robin Williams) is a retired firefighter who teams up with reggae singer Ernest Reed (Jimmy Cliff) to open a tropical island resort. In addition to local eccentrics such as British layabout Anthony Cloyden Hayes (Peter O'Toole), Jack and Ernest are joined by tourists eager to stay at their resort, including the goofy, party-seeking duo of Barry (Eugene Levy) and Barry (Rick Moranis). Unfortunately, whiny customers and greedy land developers threaten to spoil the fun.

Sheila Benson Los Angeles Times 07/26/2014
A frenetically unfunny and charmless movie. Go to Full Review
Carrie Rickey Philadelphia Inquirer 07/26/2014
3/4
What's fresh about Ramis and Doyle-Murray's brand of comedy is that they're not one-liner wordsmiths, they're social satirists. They find humor in the subversion of a stable social community. Go to Full Review

The whole, crowded thing begins to resemble a low-brow Nashville. Go to Full Review

A slapdash, mostly unfunny disaster... Go to Full Review
Candice Russell South Florida Sun-Sentinel 07/26/2014
This is a case where the actors are only as good as the script, which isn`t saying much. It`s not long into Club Paradise when you may feel the urge to get out. Go to Full Review
David Sterritt Christian Science Monitor 07/26/2014
The unchanneled energy of Robin Williams can't redeem this messy yarn. Go to Full Review

Maybe, I’m just crazy but this is a really witty, charming, funny movie. The cast is fantastic and there are some great performances. Andrea Martin is brilliant in this. She steals the show every time she’s on screen. And Jimmy Cliff holds his own against some giants of film. Then on top of it all Robin Williams just holds down a solid Robin performance. I highly recommend checking this flick out. It’s a damn good time. See more matthias s @Thescreenasvor 11/11/2023 Club Paradise takes you on a sun-soaked adventure that's hotter than a beach bonfire! With its palm trees swaying to the rhythm of laughter and the crystal-clear waters of comedy, this film serves up a tropical vacation experience you won't forget. The amazing cast, including Eugene Levy and Rick Moranis, are the icing on the vacation cake. Their performances add layers of comic flavor, making this a true holiday feast. With their on-screen chemistry, these actors create a beach paradise where laughter reigns supreme.
