Fool's Paradise (2023)
Utterly Pointless.
17 February 2024 - 5 out of 6 users found this review helpful.
Can't help but feel that Peter Sellers' The Party and Charlie Chaplin will be cited as influences for this, but they far overshadowed whatever this intended to be.
A notable cast, as wasted as ever I can recall.
Probably an "in joke" that just went awry, and by some obligatory farce got made.
Having just seen another film somewhat related by premise, Hal Ashby's classic "Being There" just further illustrates how off target Fool's Paradise is.
In that Peter Sellers' performance, is subtle and sublime.
Those associated with this, will move on no doubt.
I will make every effort to recall how fine an actor Ray Liotta was through his better films.
