Title: Forces of Nature

Date Viewed: 4/1/99

Score: +

The Review: Ben Afflick in a romantic comedy of errors trying frantically to get from NYC to Savannah for his wedding, accompanied by a manic-depressive Sandra Bullock as antagonist, co-conspirator and temptation. What can go wrong, does -- spectacularly; pick a mode of transportation, and they can find the hole. The trip reminds me of Zeno's paradox: the closer they get to Savannah, the slower the progress. Don't miss the hilarious strip scene (and no, not the one with the matador).
