The Proposal

The Proposal was 85 minutes worth of B+ grade material but then came last 20 minutes which was nothing but cheese. Here's the skinny; you got Sandra Bullock, a book editor and not to mention, raving bitch, who is about to be deported back to Canada because of an expired visa. Then walks in her ever witty assistant, Ryan Reynolds, who agrees to marry her just so she can stay in the country. But she must first meet his off the wall family in Alaska and at the same time convince the deportation officer that there relationship is not only legit but the marriage is truly authentic.

My favorite Golden Girl, Betty White, steals every scene she is in and Oscar Nunez, who plays Oscar in the The Office, grabs a few laughs as well. Ryan Reynolds is on his mark when injecting his sarcastic humor but is seemingly unconvincing during the more serious moments. The development between the main characters did not work at all which made the ending not only half-hearted but also very lame. For that reason I have to mark this film a C.
