Reception
Critical reception
On Todas las críticas website, El paraíso has a 71% approval rating based on 17 reviews. Diego Batlle from Otros cines highlighted that "Paradise has a few successful climates and valuable visual ideas, although at times the animation looks a bit 'robotic', without reaching the fluidity and naturalness that surely could have been achieved if it had been told. with a bigger budget." Paula Vázquez Prieto from La Nación stated that the film "achieves a meticulous, clear and precise reconstruction" in its plot, but that it does not have a "carnal approach to those moral conflicts." Adrián Monserrat from Escribiendo cine wrote: "the film is an achievement, both from an aesthetic point of view and from the construction of the story", although he criticized that "3D animation is well conceived although it is not entirely efficient due to the unnatural movements of each character."
Ignacio Durand from El Destape Web wrote: "El paraíso is a film that goes along the expected lines, without surprises and appealing to some effective commonplaces, well used to enhance the drama in the strongest scenes." Manuel Villar Lifac from Clarín highlighted that in the film "the photographic realism of the settings in which this drama takes place has an impact" and "it is worth highlighting the power of the sound."
