01/01/00
A bumbling and typically charmless latter-day studio screwball comedy.

No review available.
03/19/02
The humour is genial and both Affleck and Bullock are easy on the eye, but the film itself ends up being little more than a storm in a teacup.
06/14/09
Affleck and Bullock merely seem to be spouting lines at each other. Both have done better.
01/01/00
A shameless two-hour trip of lousy character interaction, daisy-head romance, anti-conclusions and disconnected human logic.
01/01/00
Forces of Nature isn't awful. It is just miscast. If Ben was being lured by someone more tempting, like Melanie Griffith in Wild Thing, say, it would have had more of an edge.
02/14/01
For the most part this film is not particularly funny or entertaining. The plot is, of course, predictable.
10/18/04
While far from a complete misfire, Forces of Nature remains simply too by-the-numbers to be particularly gratifying or worthwhile.
06/24/08
I suggest a detour around Forces of Nature until its arrival on home video.
01/01/00
As she demonstrates in Forces of Nature, [Bullock] is a much more versatile, capable and entertaining actress than she's been given credit for.
01/01/00
A movie that obviously aspires to screwball status while trampling on the irrepressible female freedom that defines the genre.
01/01/00
Forces of Nature disappoints us right to the last, with an ending that lacks the courage of the film's convictions.
01/01/00
though Sandra Bullock and Ben Affleck generate a certain amount of goodwill... the comedy - like the airplane its central characters meet aboard - doesn't quite get off the ground.
06/23/02
The film shows off Ms. Bullock to amusing if overly frenetic advantage. It also leaves Mr. Affleck without enough of a Cary Grant aura to play his wimpier character with style.
01/01/00
Top CriticExcept for the continuous onslaught of disasters, some of which are genuinely funny, there is really not a whole lot going on here.
03/12/01
Bullock seems a bit too level-headed for a screwball, and the affable Affleck has no real chemistry with her or Tierney.
08/07/08
Interesante desde el punto de vista de cuestionar el tipo de afecto y de relaciones que tenemos con nuestros seres queridos y con nosotros mismos
