This movie 'Paradise Cove' couldn't decide if it was a thriller or comedy, but no matter, this fiasco was neither thrilling or funny. In fact, I think violence combined with wisecracks, is offensive. Plus, why do villains in these awful movie's pick on people's pets? Shame on the producers. The actors were super bad at their job, by the way.

LOL...it's entertaining enough but ya...& really dude leaving your envelope full of all your cash in a drawer with insane lady & a construction crew in & out, lol. I will say the take on the stalker was something I haven't seen (her home being stolen, makes you root for her, at first, especially since the other characters aren't likable- but she's not very likable and pretty evil so... I thought because of that, I was about to see something I hadn't seen before, but not!

I work from home on a computer and sometimes put movies i'd never waste my off time on in the background. I found myself cringing from the dialog to the point of where I may have lost my job because of errors from twitching. This is a movie to watch with friends to laugh at after self medicating.

Bad acting, bad script, bad storyline. Everything that happens is just so unbelievable. The story, their actions, just everything. Give it a miss

To make it short - the husband accidentally runs over the dog with a car, turned it off immediately. The movie is boring to begin with. Thank god I didn't have to sit for the rest of it

This felt like one of those cheesy made-for-TV Lifetime movies, but worse. The concept story was actually decent - and the main reason I gave this film a chance, but 15 mins in, it felt like a high school drama class production. Paradise Cove was newb writer Sherry Klein's 5th writing credit, all previous mainly TV movies (which explains the Lifetime TV movie feel). Considering she's a newb, there's some forgiveness for her long dragged out screenplay. It had decent continuity, but lots of plot and technical issues, as well as many "huh" and "wtf" moments. It was highly predictable, with nothing left for the imagination, and the scenes were long and dragged out. The 103 min runtime felt like 3+ hours with the terribly slow pacing. This screenplay needed to be cut/edited down to "at most" a 1 hour TV movie length. You can pretty much fast-forward this film at 10x faster speed, and be done in 15-20 minutes and not miss a thing - even without hearing the dialogue. But were there is no forgiveness, is the terrible directing from seasoned director Martin Guigui. He could and should have upped the ante with the screenplay he was given. But instead, it felt like a high school drama class production. He had a great cast to work with, but failed to direct them properly. All the acting felt like a bad soap opera, and I know the 3 experienced leads can perform much better. The only somewhat convincing and thrilling performance was Kristin Bauer van Straten. The cinematography was bland, with a 1980's camcorder production feel to it. Malibu deserved sharp bright summer colors - bright orange and yellows, with beautiful blues for the sea and sky, instead of the drab pale and bland color choices that were made. The score was ok, although I don't recall hearing much of it, which I guess is better than the loud, overbearing and annoying typical b-grade film scores. I'm giving this one a very generous 4/10. Never mind the two current bogus 10/10's, and I'm sure there will be many more, considering the effort from one-week member "David_Vogel_1", who managed to watch 49 movies in exactly 7 days, and rated all of them a 1 or 10 lol. To see how generous my 4 is, compare it to the professional Top Critics on Rotten Tomatoes where it's at 29%. So, should you invest almost 2 hours to see this? Unless you're an obsessed fan of Todd Grinnell, Mena Suvari or Kristin Bauer van Straten, I'd steer clear of this one.

A couple inherits a house from the husbands mother, and the previous owner of the house lives underneath it and won't leave. If this sounds like it should be a short film - you are correct. The way the police is portrayed in this movie borderlines on offensive - with how uncaring and incompetent they are. The previous owner is extremely unlikable and crass.. So these two things make you root for the characters the film wants you to root against... which is a sign of horrible writing and directing. The pace is slow and predictabe. This film is really just a dumbed down version of The House of Sand and Fog (which is an awesome movie.)

This movie was so bad. And I normally love bad movies. Not this one. Everything looked cheap, the script was bad, the acting was indifferent to bad. The husband opens the curtains in the bedroom to reveal an amazing ocean view and the wife is all "meh"? The homeless woman lives below them and can hear everything they say and it's not even muffled? Nice insulation. They can't get rid of the homeless woman and remove her from living right below their house and the law doesn't help? It all seemed very disjointed. They go from a burned-out shell of a house to having a gorgeous green-tiled bathroom overnight without showing any cleaning or reno. Was that supposed to be the same poo-filled meth den we saw about 10 minutes before? What the heck? PS I can't take it when animals get hurt or killed in movies. BYE!

I had high hopes for this movie. I popped the popcorn anticipating a suspenseful movie. Well it unfortunately didn't turn out as I had hoped. It started off pretty good and then died towards the middle. This character Bree in the movie turned out to be very psychotic. Kristen Bauer did do an excellent job of portraying a crazy lady in this film.The other actors did a great job in their roles but the story could have been better. The story would have been better if Bree had made Tracey the wife more jealous. There were extra characters in the movie that weighed it down. It is not the worse movie I ever saw even though I found myself wishing it would hurry up and end.

This is a great movie it was written well the ACTing was done well. It's one of those movies where perspective is going to be different and you really don't know who the true villain is and who the truth here always it's not a it's a very gray movie but that's what made this movie so special no it wasn't like oh okay so this person's the bad guy and he's a good people they're all good and they're all bad in their own way
