"The Proposal"turned out to be a very cute comedy and, unlike the majority of movies I watched in the past few months, did not leave me disappointed. As most of you probably know, it is about a very bitchy boss of a very cute guy who is about to be deported to Canada and loose her job. Not surprisingly, she quickly comes up with a great idea of marrying the assistant (aka the cute guy), which will give her an opportunity to continue working for an American company. It wouldn't be interesting, of course, if not for the girl's extreme bitchiness and the guy's hatred towards her, on which most of the funny moments are built.
I wouldn't say that "The Proposal" is the funniest romantic comedy out there, but it is a very charming one. As usual, Sandra Bullock is very likable and brings a sparkle of her great personality to the picture. Ryan Reynolds, who I've never heard about before and don't care much about, is adorable in his own way. The chemistry between two actors is great and they make the whole thing very believable. Of course, being a romantic comedy, "The Proposal" is very predictable and a little cliched, but this is what the genre entails, so I don't understand people who complain about it. Don't know about you, but I personally never expect to get some food for thought from watching a romcom and, thus, am completely satisfied if the acting is good, the plot is interesting, and a few funny moments are included.
I have to admit, however, that I might have liked the movie because, just like

Lenicienta, I adore Sandra Bullock, who, I think, is my favorite American actress. She seems to have such an amazing personality that you can't help but wish you were friends with her. I also see Sandy as a very down to earth person who is much more grounded and real than most of other celebrities. This is why, no matter what movie Bullock's in, I take pleasure in watching it. Oh, and I just have to mention her amazing physique! Sandra's tight body (she gets practically naked in one scene) will make many much younger girls jealous (not to mention 45 y.o. women). I also respect Sandy for not turning her face into that of a wax figure, like Nicole Kidman and many others. I think that, even with a few wrinkles on her face, Sandra Bullock looks much better and younger than most of those nip/tucked women and hope that she'll keep aging gracefully without starting to abuse plastic surgery!
Overall, "The Proposal" is a good movie for a girls' night out, as well as a great one to rent later on if you don't want to spend $10 for a movie ticket now.
