“This is a review of the DVD version of u0026quot;Forces of Natureu0026quot;.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy wife and I rented this movie because we like Sandra Bullock, especially, and also Ben Affleck. We didnu0026#39;t have high expectations, except to be entertained. And we found it very entertaining and not particularly predictable. Affleck, the prospective groom, has to make his way to Savanna in two days after a plane problem, complicated by an arriving hurricane. He meets up with the ditsy Bullock, and both of them learn quite a bit about themselves.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf you watch the special features on the DVD, Bullock explains how every one you meet, even short u0026quot;chanceu0026quot; meetings, have some impact on you, and this is a large part of what the movie tries to convey. And it does it very well. Thereu0026#39;s good acting, lots of interesting u0026quot;developmentsu0026quot;, and a very good story in total. I give it 7 of 10. It is a much better movie than I expected.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe DVD picture is very well done, and the sound track likewise, with appropriate use of the rear surround channels. My only complaint? Not enough bass rumble during the lightning and thunder scenes during the storms.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJuly 2010 update: Saw it again, a pretty entertaining movie with a good message.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMay 2020 update: Ditto.”
