What a disappointing mess of a movie.
I quite enjoyed The Dry and wanted this film to be good, but it really has no redeeming features. For a film called Force of Nature, nature is a bit of a let-down, it should have been named the Somewhat Damp and the cinematography of the first film is replaced by washed-out unimpressive visuals of a nondescript forest.
The plot is sad bordering on pathetic, with a final act that is reminiscent of a 4th grade "... and then I woke up" potline. The acting is poor, the characters are shallow, the plot is puerile, and the denouement was cringeworthy. The pacing and flashbacks make the whole process migraine inducing.
All of this is made even more disappointing by the strength of the first movie.
