The Proposal - Movie Review

The Proposal (PG-13) 108 minutes B
A thin line between love and hate.

Starring Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, Malin Akerman, Craig T. Nelsonn, Mary Steenburgen, Denis O'Hare, and Betty White

I think Sandra Bullock is a very talented actress who mainly does silly (big payday) films... But hey, whatever works right? The thing is, Bullock is starting to perfect these roles and when she has good actors/actresses opposite her and half way decent material the result is The Proposal.

A surprisingly vibrant and entertaining film in which everyone in the theater knew the outcome before they parked their cars at the cineplex. Yet there are enough minor plot twists to keep you interested and guessing.

I'm a sucker for romantic comedies and I found myself anxiously awaiting the part when they fall in love and they both realize it. I'm not giving anything away, it's a Sandra Bullock film for christ's sake... you know how she rolls.
