Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling (2009)

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

The first movie was actually good. I'm surprised i could sit through this one. I saw it on tbs because i would never rent this movie. The first movie was about the bond between three best friends: the uptight one, the lazy low life, and the median in between them. Also it had three great actors playing the main characters. And who doesn't love Ethan Suplee? This movie was just more like a American Pie movie without nudity. And the humor is much more crude and tasteless. At least the first one had a real bear. The squirrels look not a bit real. The only good part of this movie was Rik Young. The story itself was stupid and unbelievable. And the main character didn't even get the girl.

I loved this movie. The actors were great and this is not a continuation of the last movie, it simply is just a movie that is supposed to have a similar story line. I cant get enough of it. It is the perfect blend of humor, adventure, comedy and romance. They have selected the best actors for this role because they all seem to play off of each other bringing out the best in each of them. I think its amazing that Oliver James is able to hide his accent so well, it shows that he has talent and is willing to expand his skills. A person watching this should view it as a completely new movie enjoying the humor and the beauty of nature.

While the first movie wasn't all that entertaining - it was passable, this doesn't come close to it what-so ever.Dialoge is poor, setting is not to full effect, story is lame, casting is all wrong, nothing in this is memorable.The squirrel sequence is just retarded and it's subplots are just as stupid.I saw this free and was glad that I didn't pay for it.It saved me the cost of a rental, but regardless is was still lifeless and bring.Not even the two eco-chicks were from the first movie - which I guess is a good thing...Who thought of this story as something to produce is severely looking to get fired.Soundtrack didn't offer anything either.If you liked the first Without A Paddle, you should leave it at that and forget about this one, because you will enjoy this.Nothing really works in this. It's just a mess of sub-stories that were mishmash-ed together to put together a sub par script that is not funny or entertaining.There is a reason that this went straight to video...because it would not have lasted 2 weeks in a theater.It's poorly developed - even the sound nature effects are over done.The continuity is atrociously horrible as is the timing and looping.Save your money, save your time...go to sleep instead.

When I heard a a sequel had been made to "Without a Paddle," I was kind of excited. Dax, Matt Lillard & Seth Green were pretty fun in the first movie, so I expected a decent flick. With a cast of relative no names, this movie seems to be a more straight to DVD type of movie. The biggest name had to be Hall of fame football player Jerry Rice, playing crazy woodsman "Hal Gore." Two lifelong friends (a laid back nurse and a stressed lawyer) and a Limey-Brit must take raft down river, in search of a beautiful hippie girl, who lives deep in the Oregon woods. Adventures unfold with white rapids, crazy squirrels and angry mobsters making things tough on the guys.All in all, the movie is pretty entertaining throughout. Very simple and kind of silly plot, with a fair amount of laughs. This is a movie that kids will enjoy a lot more than adults and overall I found the first movie in this series to be better than this one.
