If you have the need to see a romantic comedy that goes through the motions every time?
The meet ... the awkward getting to know each other ... the spark ... the trouble ... the realization ... and then the end.
For the proposal, I have to say they had somewhat an original twist with Sandra Bullock being a bitch from CANADA, kinda funny putting the Canadians in such a bad light. Until...we see her sensitive side during the get to know you side and the spark. Same Ol' Sandra trying to show a character with about 10 different personalities. Ryan Reynolds on the other hand seems to be getting sucked into the Romantic side of movies, "Definitely Maybe" and now this? Buddy I know its a moneymaker but how old is Sandra Bullock 2 times your age? I thought this guy was great dealing out the best medicine...Laughs...now its seems you went from Haha to Awwww.
Lets talk setting, I wouldn't have thought it before but Alaska is beautiful! Now we know how Senator Palin's kid got pregnant its quite a romantic setting. They definitely made a great choice to set the movie out there. Who wouldn't fall in love with Sandra's Bitchy character out there.
Ok now to cut the crap, for a Romantic Comedy its definitely on the better side of the quality spectrum, with a star cast...I mean Betty White, Mary Steenburgen great additions, a good twist on the traditional Rom-Com motions, and I'd have to say a good script with some corny moments but overall i'd say funny. So...would I see it again? Possibly, wouldn't actively rent it but if I fell into it then I might watch it.
If your down feeling blue... then i'd prescribe the Proposal to give you some laughs and if your into the love stories, then you'll like it even more.
