| Internet ReviewsSteve Rhodesullock, tapping her vast reservoir of charm and confidence, gives her best performance since Speed. |
| NUVO NewsweeklyEdward Johnson-OttThanks to fine performances from the uniformly strong cast, a surprisingly smart, unpredictable plot and some jazzy visuals, Forces of Nature overcomes pacing problems to emerge a winner. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsDavid N. ButterworthIf Bullock and Affleck had any more chemistry, we might have witnessed spontaneous combustion onscreen. |
| Hollywood Report CardRoss AnthonyDreamWorks takes a rather uninteresting plotline and makes a movie that moves around it. |
| New York TimesJanet MaslinThe 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. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsDragan AntulovFor the most part this film is not particularly funny or entertaining. The plot is, of course, predictable. |
| Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittRomantic comedy about a bridegroom-to-be who gets sidetracked on the way to his wedding, especially by an unexpected traveling companion who's both free-spirited and beautiful. |

| CNN.comPaul TataraI kept waiting for the plot to kick in. And waited and waited and waited. |
