My Review-The Proposal

As an anonymous tip described the movie quoted "Another typical Sandra Bullock film". The jury verdicts...

"AGREED!"

Thats what I thought it would be. The things in this movie I had just realized, that I thought weddings were all about the bells and whistles of two people who love each other, are now married and now will live happily ever after ...Bla bla bla etc etc.

But this one opened my eyes as to how I see that marriages arn't as easy as I thought would be. I never knew that it would require an immigration department for people who are from different countries to stay together.

Sandra Bullock playing the role of an editor in a publishing office named Margaret Tate is a typical bossy stuck up (bleep) that everyone is too scared to get in her way. While Ryan Reynolds, plays the typical lapdog as her assistant editor at her beck and call in hopes that his boss, Margaret. Would have the heart to publish his manuscript so that the world may know of his illustriously crafted words of storytelling. Sort of like the professional relationship between the leading roles of Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep in the 2006 novel-based movie the 'The Devil Wears Prada'. Except that Anne is replaced by the guy who played Marvel's unstoppable mouth horn Deadpool soon to have his own movie origins, while Streep is replaced with a high-heel wearing hottie.

Scenes provided by the trailer shows promise of a hilarity basis from scenes where the so called Witch gets thrown off a boat, to the hilarity ensuing image of switching roles as to the title a 'proposal'. Commercially its funny, as it is supposedly the male that is forward to a relationship, while its odd as a female takes the lead.

But the comedy does not make up for the story though... If I were to seperate funny from the story, it would mean entirely different as a whole. The story that can be closly described as average at best. Typical bossy person with an underling, and their misadventures supposedly give way to a climatic tale.

The Proposal met my expectations when it comes to the funny. But as a story, it has become exhausted, and does a stereotypicaly cliched happily ever after that lacks concrete substance and suspense.

As Tech Jammer decrees

Verdict-C

Pros-Funny as promised

Cons-Another fleeting romance flick with a cliche climax
