Much of "Force of Nature" feels familiar and unnecessarily predigested. Go to Full Review

08/19/2013 A beautiful person, so much to learn from his example. Fantastic documentary that shows you how a different point of view is often a way to see the real nature of the world. Waiting for the world to awake and be aware See more 08/19/2013 A beautiful person, so much to learn from his example. Fantastic documentary that shows you how a different point of view is often a way to see the real nature of the world. Waiting for the world to awake and be aware See more 04/28/2013 A superb reminder of just how intimately linked to nature we truly are and how easy it is to forget the symbiotic relationship we share with all of life on this rock. And how life, air, water, earth, wind, conservation, biodiversity, and a balanced approach to living must come first. After all, the economy comes from the biosphere, not the other way around. You have to be blind not to see the love this man is, and has for nature, and for his family. And how they are one and the same to him. This is one of those few shows I have added to my "must see yearly" list. Enjoy! See more 04/29/2012 I would have not seen this if it was not a Starbuck's free rental but so glad I did. It was very well done. See more 09/07/2011 a biographical look at a canadian icon, and peppered with his environmentalist perspective in lecture form.
