Ticket to Paradise | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

Timing is everything. Roberts and Clooney share the comic variety, and arrives in cinemas exactly when we need entertainment, laughter and escape, welcoming audiences with open arms. The story is standard, but the timing of its arrival is first class.

Yes, dumb comedies sometimes require you to turn off your brain for a couple hours, but do you have to also turn off your soul?

The gnawing arbitrariness of Ticket to Paradise cuts to the heart of why the Hollywood rom-com has been so deficient for so long, often turning to outrageously silly premises just to throw some obstacles in the way.

Ticket to Paradise is totally predictable, and it feels as though it should have come out in the late 1980s or early-to-mid 1990s. That's exactly what I liked about it.
