Not as good as the original but still worth a watch. Notice how the water level on the poster is lower than the water level on the poster for the first film that can give some idea to how good the film is. The film does contain some funny moments but at times tries to hard. The more times you watch it does seem better.

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend if you've seen the first one. This is clearly a lower budget version of the first movie, so no celebrities, or complex camera shots. The story also feels a bit lower quality. I like an idiot chases after the "one that got away" story, and having it go through the isolationism of the woods is full of potential, but I feel like the opportunity was wasted by having the English guy interrupting the best friend arc, and the goons ruining the isolation of the forest. Don't get me wrong, the story is well written, and they balance the complexity between the story threads rather well, it just doesn't result in the thing I wanted from it. There is plenty of good humor, romance, and awkward moments to keep the story interesting.

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.

A spin-off to the immensely enjoyable Without a Paddle, 'Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling' is a harmless film, although in totality, its strictly an okay fare. 'Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling' Synopsis: Two best friends, along with a crazy Briton, embark on a journey in the woods to find a missing childhood crush. 'Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling' is best enjoyed if you willing to watch a film, where silliness plays a major aspect. I mean, its all harmless & in good nature, but its never smart or remotely engrossing. But, I wasn't bored & that pretty much did it for me. The Screenplay is funny, but only in selected parts. The Direction is fair. Cinematography has captured the wilderness, very nicely. Editing needed more sharpness. And even though all the actors on board try to deliver, they never match above the given material. On the whole, 'Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling' is just about passable. Keep a check on your expectations & you won't really complain.

"Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling" (2009) is a comedy/adventure about three old friends who venture into the Northwest wilderness to find a girl whom one of them fell in love with when they were kids. She's now a hippie tree-hugger, but stands to inherit a fortune. Will they find her? Will they even get back alive? This "sequel" was only made because the first movie, 2004's "Without a Paddle," was a minor hit at the box office, making three times its expense in the USA alone. As you can see from the above synopsis, "Nature's Calling" is merely a retread of the same plot with slight variations and different actors. It also cost $12.7 million less. If you liked the first film you might appreciate this one, but it's anemic by comparison, not that the first one was that good. The protagonists are likable and the filmmaking is hip, including the soundtrack, but the shenanigans are only mildly amusing and the girls, again, aren't anything to get too excited about, although the brunette is the best of both worlds. The over-the-top scene with the squirrels is easily the best scene and is almost worth the price of admission. I suggest only watching this one if you're a fan of the first movie and want to see a lesser film with the same plot and tone. An interesting difference is that this one was actually shot in the Great Northwest, in the wilderness East of Portland, rather than New Zealand. The film runs 96 minutes. GRADE: Borderline C- or C

I loved the first movie, but this second movie was just a waste of time.

I am aware this is a sequel. But if you haven't seen that one, this is a fun movie. No one will win awards for acting, but Kristopher Turner is quite likable and Rik Young eventually shows he is more than just a spoiled brat, although he is quite appealing in a way from the time we meet him. Oliver James has kind of an uptight clueless quality but eventually shows us some degree of substance. The guys learn a lot about each other, and this movie turns out to be more than just silly comedy. The villains have a lot in common with The Three Stooges, which is good news for our heroes, but things do get kind of scary. The girls are gorgeous and do an okay job of acting. And what about the Sasquatch? Fans of football great Jerry Rice may be the only ones to appreciate him. He does not have a future as an actor. One thing is certain: this movie hammers home a pro-environment message. The scenery is gorgeous like the girls, and the idea is to keep it that way. Can the entire family enjoy it? Maybe. More cautious parents might not care for the suggestive dialogue, and it is implied the girls are more than just friends. On the other hand, there is more sexual humor that suggests otherwise. There is cartoon violence including the favorite type of fans of the longest-running show that had Tom Bergeron as a host. The difference is that it really does hurt and we see what happens afterward. Also ridiculous: the animated squirrels. It's great work for those who produced them, but this movie is too naughty for the young children who might just be the only ones to enjoy their antics. It's a fun adventure.

I'll be the first to admit, I'm VERY tolerant when it comes to movies. I will watch almost anything at least once. This movie was no exception, and after the first movie (which I have to admit I liked) I figured there was no harm in watching this one. I almost never say this... but, I wish I'd turned the channel. Seriously, that is saying a LOT for me. I willingly sit through movies that most people cannot stand. I knew from the start that this was not actually a sequel to the second as far as characters and events; but rather of concept and idea. I have no problem with that. My problem is, the things that made the first movie endearing to me (a halfway decent script, fairly likable characters, and a nice good feeling at the end) were completely missing from this one. Add in goofy CGI squirrels (such things have a proper time and place people, come on!) and it was bordering on unwatchable. I will say, you just cannot blame this on the actors, because that part wasn't bad - the material they had to work WITH was the problem. This movie started off on the wrong foot with a shaky script. And the actors are really the only reason I've rated this even as high as I have.

Nobody is gonna see this review since this is an older movie that everybody hated but here are my thoughts anyway. Without a Paddle Nature's Calling is an unnecessary sequel to 2004's Without a Paddle. This movie is kind of like a comedy version of a Sci- fi channel original. It's terrible, stupid, and pretty entertaining. Basically the plot of this movie is 3 guys go on an adventure to find hot blonde girl number 3 and ridiculous things follow including bad cgi squirrels and generic villains. If you don't have anything better to do at 2 in the morning this this movie is a solid entertaining option just don't expect an Oscar worthy film. Like I said this movie is like a comedy version of a sci-fi original so of course the acting is nothing special. The writing is... something I really don't know what else to say about it. So overall Without a Paddle Nature's Calling is a terribly entertaining movie. I would give this movie a 5.5/10 but since IMDb won't let me do that I'm giving Without a Paddle Nature's Calling a 7/10 because haters gonna hate. Don't listen to all the complaints from people who apparently expected an amazing movie just get a few friends together with some beer and enjoy yourselves.
