I'm so surprised that Paradise is only rated at 6.3! It has an excellent premise (necessarily fuzzy on the science), the acting is great and the futuristic setting is realistic and tasteful.
Ultimately the film explores how individuals and society at large might respond to the commodification of human lifespans. Who benefits, who pays, and what types of mind tricks and justifications are employed to perpetuate the institution.
There were just enough twists and turns to keep me interested in the plot. Although certain aspects of the conclusion were predictable, there were some unexpected outcomes. Overall, I give it I give it an 8.5, rounding up to a 9.
