adonis98-743-186503 An entry-level employee at a powerful corporation finds himself occupying a corner office, but at a dangerous price: he must spy on his boss's old mentor to secure for him a multi-billion dollar advantage. I can see why Paranoia left so many people disappointed since they all expected seeing more from Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman and believe me that makes sense but years have changed unfortunately and in my opinion this movie wasn't that bad. It had suspense in it and the story was interesting plus the perfomances were good honestly. (7/10)

Claudio Carvalho "Paranoia" is one of those films that are flawed, brainless but entertaining. The story of the ambitious twenty-seven year old Adam Cassidy with debts in the hospital for the expensive treatment of his father that in a couple of days becomes an important executive of a corporation competitor of the company that he was fired is totally absurd. He uses US$ 16,000 in the corporation card to party and what would he expect? Therefore, the tight spot that he is in is caused by a ridiculous situation. The coincidence of having one night stand with Emma Jennings is another unbelievable part of the screenplay. The unethical Adam Cassidy should have been in prison for a long period, since his lack of character and manipulation are disgusting. Emma returning to him is also incredible for an intelligent woman that was used. But forgetting these ridiculous situations, the viewer can enjoy the beauty of Amber Heard; the always great Gary Oldman and Richard Dreyfuss; see Josh "Sawyer" Holloway once again; and a good cast with Harrison Ford, Embeth Davidtz, Julian McMahon and Liam Hemsworth. Shutdown your brain and you may have a good time. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Conexão Perigosa" ("Dangerous Connection")

dpatsawyer This is basically a remake of Caprice (1967) with Doris Day and Richard Harris. Whoever wrote it should be ashamed they lifted the plot from a previous film. I have not read the novel by Joseph Finder so I do not know how much of it was possibly inspired by Caprice, but certainly the premise of Paranoia is the same. Sort of a rip-off in my opinion.I thought it was boring and full of clichés. Poor acting, though Ford and Oldman do okay, but the others, both main characters played by Liam Hemsworth and Amber Heard are very poor IMO.Air Force One was a much better film featuring Oldham and Ford, both fine actors.

Leofwine_draca PARANOIA is one of those corporate suspense thrillers about rival businesses, spying, and the like. All of these films seem to owe a debt to WALL STREET in the depiction of fresh-faced newcomers going under the wings of seasoned and cynical professionals.Sadly, there isn't much to get excited about in PARANOIA, a distinctly average type film. The writing is of bog-standard quality and the most interesting thing about it is the sheer number of familiar faces playing in support: Embeth Davidtz, Julian McMahon, Josh Holloway, even Richard Dreyfuss in a minor put pivotal role. Sadly they have little to do in a storyline that feels devoid of suspense and is really very ordinary.One of the the film's biggest flaws is in the central casting of the inexperienced Liam Hemsworth. Hemsworth fails to bring any charisma to his part and in fact feels wooden throughout, and certainly out of his depth compared to the seasoned pros surrounding him. On the other hand, there's a nice turn from Gary Oldman who successfully manages to capture some of that fire he had in the 1990s. Harrison Ford looks incredibly old but is pretty good in a cast-against-type role.
