SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
digitalbeachbum The movie might be great for those viewers who don't care about quality acting, scripts or directing but for me the movie was unbearable. It was so completely terrible that I couldn't stand the characters or the acting. The script was even worse.
Kirpianuscus I do not like the contemporary romantic comedies. "The Proposal" is not an exception. but it is not the worse film of genre. for three basic virtues - Betty White, the beautiful bride dress and for the reference to the importance of family. Sandra Bullock is the same like in each romance she made. Reynolds gives a decent character. but he does that in each occasion. the story is same salad of humor and romance. nothing new. but nice. maybe, if Canada was Mexico, the story sounds better.
MichaelMRamey Like I said in the headline, I'm not a big RomCom fan, but this does feature actors I am fans of in Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. Not to mention the hilarious supportive role Betty White plays. The storyline is a new take on a classic RomCom narrative and both Bullock & Reynolds play off each other well.
atlasmb Sometimes people say "Hollywood doesn't make films like that anymore", referring to the situational boy-meets-girl romances of the 30s or 40s. Well, it does and this is one example, though this is boy-works-for-girl who is a tyrant as a boss. When you go to this movie, you know it's a romance, and so the "suspense", if you will, is how can the writers get the star-crossed characters together?Sandra Bullock plays Margaret Tate, the boss everyone fears and hates. She has no personal life and no family life. Ryan Reynolds is her underling, Andrew Paxton. The story thrusts them into spending time outside of work together. Family members--including Betty White as Andrew's "Gammy"--help to put the com in romcom.The disdain of Margaret and Andrew for each other appears to be an insurmountable obstacle to love. Before the film ends though, vows are take--but not the kind you expect. Still, such films are about affirming the power of love and this film will not disappoint.
