Instant Favorite.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

The Proposal is yet another romantic comedy about two people who hate each other at first, but then grow to like each other through a series of wacky/zany/crazy events! And yes, it does have the obligatory rom-com chase scene at the end. This movie does, however, have the added bonus of Ryan Reynolds, who is always entertaining.

The chemistry between the leads is good but the problem with the Proposal is that it is formulaic and eventually you know what is going to happen. This isn't a bad movie per se- just that you might get a sense of deja-vu about a third in.

I was most unfortunate to watch this terrible 'romantic comedy'. The plot is just non existent.Really a pain to watch. It started out well with Sandra Bullock playing a career minded female editor and Ryan Reynolds playing her assistant. The first 10 minutes of the movie show promises but it goes downhill after they decided to go to Alaska to celebrate Ryan Reynold's grandmother's birthday. The whole plot doesn't make sense at all. Why should Sandra Bullock follow Ryan Reynolds back to Alaska? who are they trying to convince they are a couple? The romantic plot between the 2 leads are non existent. They hated each other at the beginning of the movie and without any explanation they were deeply in love in the last 10 minutes of the movie. Whoever gave this movie a positive review especially a 10 clearly has a mentality of a child.

The only reason I would consider watching a movie like this is when I am bored or I am traveling from city to city. Having to travel by bus from Zaragoza to Madrid every week, I had gone through most of the movie on offer on the bus. The proposal seemed the least bad choice. The movie is a comedy, and is full of surreal and nonsensical situations. I am not sure they really make your laugh but they keep you awake. The movie is all about seeing the actors in action. If you like Reynolds and Bullock, you will tolerate this movie. If you don't, it may feel like a very long movie. There's plenty of movies similar around. This one is nothing special. Romantic comedy, with its twists and turns and very little unpredictable moments.
