Movie Review: The Proposal

Ever imaged how you would be proposing to the person of your dreams or being proposed to? Well, I believe we all have some point in our lives. But imagine this, you work for an extremely horrible, evil, devil-like boss and in order to keep your job and save your career, you need to marry this person... =S The boss: Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock). The sad victim: Andrew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds). A movie filled with laughs and good moral values, The Proposal is a really fun movie to watch. So here is a mini synopsis of the movie for all you Pluckers. =)

Mini Synopsis

So like I said, this movie is about an evil, everybody-hates-this-person, type of boss and her I-will-do-everything-for-you, assistant. The movie starts out with Andrew Paxton (Reynolds) running all his bosses errands and making sure everything goes well for her. Margaret (Bullock) on the other hand is busy with herself and proceeds to firing somebody. This women is full of arrogance and pride. Everyone is afraid of her and she is sitting on top of the world.

But just as everything was falling into place for Margaret, an unlikely event takes place. She is a Canadian whose visa has already expired and is about to get deported back to Canada. If that happens, she not only loses her job but, the person that she fired will take her position as editor of the company. Has she begs and pleads with the directors of the company, out pops Andrew. He starts telling her some stuff about work and the word "Engage" pops up somewhere along the line, sparking a brilliant idea for Margaret to save her career. She then turns to the directors and tells them that she and Andrew are about to get married. Andrew's is shocked and left speechless. The two then negotiate the terms of their so called "Proposal" and "Marriage" after visiting the immigration department.

So from the busy streets of New York, Margaret and Andrew will travel to the quiet, beautiful and laid-back town of Sitka in Alaska. There Margaret will meet Andrew's family and experience life in a whole new way. The once so-in-control-of-herself editor finds herself in one comedic fish-out-of-water situation to another. So, with a weird wedding about to take place and a determine immigration officer on their tails, they both agreed to stick with their plan of getting married (despite the fact that they have loads of issues with one another and the precarious consequences).

My Feedback Of The Movie

The movie was really fun to watch =) It was filled with laughs and it had an interesting twist. It was also fun to see Bullock play a bitchy boss and what she would have to go through in order not to get deported. The movie was also like a National Geographic documentary at times =p with all the beautiful scenary shots of the Alaskan mountains and sea. Throughout the movie as well, I notice that there were sort of like different moral values.

So all and all, with all its humor and moral values, I would rate The Proposal, out of 5 stars, an awesome 4 stars. The movie is great for couples (young and old), families, and those who just want a good laugh. Also for all you Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds fans too. So I hope you guys enjoy this movie as much as I did. Enjoy!!! =D

I love long walks on the beach, candlelit dinners and I'm a sucker for women named Helga. What can I say -- I live for the finer things in life!
