Force of Nature

Hard to believe this flick cost $23 million to make. It's very cheaply done.

It's also very poorly written and completely implausible. In fact, some of the scenes are downright stupid.

Mel Gibson is barely in the film. Or at least not as much as the other characters. But he's decent . The other actors not so much.

What it comes down to is this -- it's a really horrible script. The guy who wrote this is really amateurish. In a better writer's hands, this could have been a good movie.

Generous with a 4 only cos of Gibson, otherwise this film is a total time waster. In fact, revisiting Hard Rain starring Christian Slater is much better than this lousy film. I dont kno why Gibson agreed to do this film. This movie belonged to Bruce Willis, Seagal, Van Damme, Cage, etc.

The lead actor Emile Hirsch has a double chin. The lead villain David Zayas shud hav at least remove his goatee to delete his Dexter image from our minds. He ain't convincing at all. In fact Lance Henrickson wud have done a better job. Kate Bosworth is looking haggard. Stephanie Cayo with her make up n style is looking too hot for a cop. Gibson is totally wasted.

Ther is a scene where aft all the commotion n firing, characters have plenty of time to stitch the wound n chitchat. Ther is no hand to hand combat, no good gun action sequences, no tension or suspense, the ending with the uniform is predictable n laughable n to be honest ther is no planning or proper heist. Its jus plain burglary.

All thru the film I was waiting for some dog attack scene but wot a dud man.

I like watching Mel Gibson, take him out of this movie and I would give it 3.

Mel isn't exactly William Wallace in this movie, far from his best.

This movie is terrible. Couldn't even finish it. Thought it had enough names in it to be decent, but it's not. Hard pass.

Force of Nature has a few entertaining moments, but it's very forgettable and it blends in with a hundred other movies. However, Mel Gibson was the main attraction that I was eager to watch this film. But the Mel of Lethal Weapon was shown as coughing and stubborn old man. Besides he has short role in the movie. The fight scenes aren't that bad, all things considered. Force of Nature is not a bad film. It had its fair share of problems, but for a low budget action film with an aging action star, it's not bad at all.
