Bizarre. Barely a movie. Nothing much to say about <em>'Paradox'</em>, the above says enough. I will note that the music and, particularly, the visuals are actually quite good, the latter is basically what kept me watching - along with the 73 minute run time, which admittedly doesn't drag as much...
