Tropic Sentence
By Jeffrey M. Anderson Actor Harold Ramis had great fortune directing films like Caddyshack and Groundhog Day but he got stuck on Club Paradise (1986). Despite its promise of a sunny, lightweight good time, it's a strangely angry and cynical film about a disgruntled firefighter (Robin Williams) who moves to a tropical island and battles some corporate thugs to keep a local watering hole in business. The disparate cast includes Peter O'Toole, former model Twiggy, Eugene Levy, Rick Moranis and Jimmy Cliff, who sings some great reggae songs. However, The Harder They Come this ain't. DVD Details: Warner Home Video's 2006 DVD release comes with the theatrical trailer.
