August 22, 2010Cute movie, Ryan Reynolds as always is good. Sandra Bullock is funny and her and Reynolds have a decent chemistry. Betty White really shines in the supporting role.

May 13, 2012This is a funny rom com about a horrible boss who forces her assistant to marry her to allow her to stay in the US. They travel to Alaska to announce their engagement to his family with funny consequences. Great cast and plot.

May 8, 2012The Proposal is a typical romantic comedy. That's it. There's not much else to say about it. Everything in the film has been done before. There's nothing original about it. Does it please the masses? Certainly. Is it fun? I guess so. I can't say I really enjoyed it, but I didn't ... read more

May 1, 2012The Proposal is an awful film that relies on every romantic film cliché in the book. The film suffers from a poorly written script, poor acting and very bad directing. This film is plainly horrible, and is just not worth anyone's time. The film has absolutely nothing new to offer... read more

January 13, 2012Completely ridiculous storyline, but completely entertaining nonetheless. Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds have great chemistry together, and Betty White is hilarious!

August 7, 2011Funny at times, but I forgot this movie in a day. Self centered Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock) is the boss at a huge book publishing company, and when she is threatened of being deported she forces her assistant Andrew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds) to marry her or else he will lose his... read more

Saw it again! Good movie! I liked it, was a pretty good chick flick, kinda funny too at times. Nice cast to go along a nice story.
Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock) is the executive editor-in-chief of a book publishing company, Colden Books, who forces her... read more -
July 26, 2011Only a charisma piece but there's oodles of that charisma. You'll hate yourself for liking it.

June 23, 2011One of the best rom coms ever made. Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock are made for eachother, such a beautiful and extremely funny film.

Instead of being about dinosaurs and time warps, it's about gags that were old when dinosaurs ruled the earth. Full Review

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
It's impossible to guess why Bullock was ever attracted to this insulting role, and the eternally confident Reynolds is miscast as a young, bullied underling. Full Review

Lou Lumenick, New York Post
Shamelessly derivative, contrived and predictable, The Proposal is nonetheless a crowd-pleasing romantic comedy. Full Review

Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
A mostly harmless, completely unsurprising romantic comedy. Full Review

Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times
The Proposal is just a good old-fashioned romance, one in which people actually bring out the best in one another rather than the worst. How novel is that? Full Review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
A romantic comedy doesn't need to be original to be enjoyable, and yet The Proposal still falls way too short of the mark. Full Review

It isn't a film with a lot of big guffaws, but I smiled through most of it. Full Review
