Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock) is a Canadian Editor about to be deported. She orders her assistant Andrew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds) to marry her and makes a deal for him to become an editor. They go to Alaska to get to know one another while meeting Andrew's family. The idea of bribing a subordinate, humiliating your boss in public and prancing in the woods to get back to nature was a bit too much to swallow. Bullock always fits in comedy but Reynolds just wasn't convincing enough in this genre. Betty White was really good and the locations were scenic. The Proposal had a few laughable sequences, but a few sappy and unrealistic moments as well.

Well, I'm sure I was one of millions who could predict this movie from start to finish. Though I adore Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds isn't bad, this film was just boring and unfunny. It would have been a million times better if they'd just continue to hate each other at the end. A real drag. It could have been better, but it just wasn't. Too bad.

Solid chemistry from the two leads and a rom-com that doesn't feel the need to connect the dots between romantic movie cliches. Pretty funny in parts.

The Proposal was an okay comedy. Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock had good chemistry, yet something seemed missing from this movie. In the end this movie is alright, but not great.

A pretty entertaining movie. Not only do Bullock and Reynolds have great chemistry, they immediately pull you into the story. Not a whole lot of originality with this movie, but when you have good actors and a passable story, that's okay. Betty White steals the show as the hilarious grandmother. My only gripe would be wasting Denis O'Hare in the role of the villainous immigration agent who questions the sudden marriage. There's a lot that could have been done with his character, but nothing really developed and he becomes a distraction. Other than that, there's several laughs and a nice story.
