Paradise: A Town of Sinners and Saints

Just saw 'Paradise: A Town of Sinners and Saints' and wow, what a treat! It's a bluegrass musical comedy that feels like a blast from the past, combining the heart of 'Waitress' with the humor of 'Hee Haw.' The story is all about good versus evil in a quirky coal mining town, and it's both campy and touching. The music is the real star here-totally delightful with catchy, toe-tapping tunes that had the whole audience clapping along. The cast brings such energy and charm, making it impossible not to fall in love with the town and its residents. If you're looking for a fun night out that feels like a cozy throwback, this is it. Absolutely loved it.

There is nothing like this out there right now! It reminds me of the old school films that didn't care about being PC. But yet, under all the jokes are characters you come to love and realize they are just not educated and all learn to appreciate each other and grow into loving characters. The woman playing the lead has the most beautiful voice, she could be a country star! There aren't any big names, but I recognize some of the cast, and they are so talented, singing and dancing. It was a fun and crazy ride, I really enjoyed it. I hope more people get to see it, since it isn't a big studio movie. Go watch it and kick back, tap your knee to the blue grass tunes then watch it again and sing along! Two thumbs up!

So I am not a fan of musicals at all, but I totally loved this movie. I laughed throughout the entire thing, even the closing credits were great. I have had the funniest, most catchy songs stuck in my head for days! It's super entertaining. Great music, hilarious lyrics and funny jokes throughout ! It's a movie, filmed like a play, about a dying coal mining town, the devil and reality TV. Very clever, unique and creative concept with excellent performances by everyone involved. Great acting, singing, really terrific songwriting and playing. If you dig great music and really funny off color jokes with a great storyline this is your movie !!

"Paradise: A Town of Sinners and Saints" is a bluegrass musical comedy that revitalizes the genre. Set in a dried-up coal mining town, it hilariously pits good against evil in a battle for the town's soul.

This film is so fun, unpredictable, and the music's terrific! I mean really phenomenal. I want the album! I have never heard of a Blue Grass Musical, so it has to be some kind of first (but don't quote me on that! It certainly was my first, and I LOVED IT). I adored the small town set, the lighting is colorful and vibrant and the incessant cicadas and immersive sound took me straight down to the South. This movie is like a play, mixed with a reality show and a beautiful rom-com all in one, with a lovely romance (and some weird cave action that will blow your mind, creep you out, and is really cinematic). It's clearly a low budget, but feels like a million bucks! The stellar cast brings these unique and bizarre characters to life, and none of them are as they seem. I was rooting for LouAnne the whole time. Mary Sarah's voice is incredible! I recognize Raquel Castro from "Jersey Girl" and "Empire" which was fun and she can dance!, The woman who plays Cyndi is in everything from Disney to Netflix, and her show-stopper song, "Light a bag of $h*t" on fire is FIRE! This movie, play, musical, reality show, film, or whatever genre or medium it is, is so strange that it's intoxicating! Also, I may or may not have a crush on the preacher...
