| Ben Affleck stares up at the camera as he's carried on the hands of his
bachelor-partying friends. It's an upbeat opening to a movie comprised of

| Part road movie, part romantic comedy, Forces of Nature takes several
overfamiliar plots and, well, repeats them. It's certainly not
innovative, but it does have its moments. more |

Hollywood, as the year goes on, becomes progressively worse. Why? Because

| But then something strange and frightening happens, something that makes
going to the movies worthwhile - the filmmaker surprises us. He pulls the

| Forces of Nature is a film that I fell in love with from the very start.
This film has a sort of charm and style that immediately drew me in, and as
the film moved on, it showed that it doesn't just rely on charm and style
to keep me loving it. more |
