The Proposal [DVD] [2009]

Had this film on dvd for a while now. And I have been waiting for the Blu-ray to come out. Out with the old ( DVD ) in with the new ( Blu-ray ) I don’t think it’s really necessary to update to 4K if there ever be one. Probably will lol. But it’s a regular RomCom so Blu-ray is a great choice.

The movie was funny and i enjoyed the casts in the movie

Such a fun enjoyable movie. We had a movie night for all the adults in the community and everyone had a great time!

If you have just survived another tough week at the office and are looking for a weekend pick me up, "The Proposal" is your sure bet. Yes, I laughed outloud often, and so did most of the audience. The comment frequently heard as the credits rolled was: "Ooohhh, that was sooo goooood!". The story: a tough lady-boss (Bullock) is being deported to Canada for willful non-compliance with the US immigration department. To save herself, she directs her doormat of an assistant (Reynolds) to marry her. He reluctantly agrees to play along, after she "helps" him understand the virtues of being employed. If you think you know where this story is going... well, you are right. The "happily ever after" cannot be avoided. 'Tis a comedy after all...What is fresh is how skillfully the writers and the director allow the story to veer away from the "happily ever after" course, keeping us on the edge of our seats until the satisfying end, which we have known all along was bound to arrive. The chemistry between the two leads is another pleasant surprise. I am not a particular fan of either Bullock or Reynolds. Though each smoking hot and talented, neither has made many inspired project choices. However, the roles here suit the pair's natural acting styles reasonably well, which in turn further enhances the believability of their characters. The look of constipated doom on Reynold's face, as he's being informed he's engaged, is side-splitting! I do regret Bullock does not play "mean" better; the intended juxtaposition of her supposedly tough as nails character against her overly compliant secretary is lost at times. We are TOLD she is a witchy boss, and yet she comes accross nothing more then efficient (Sandra: call me! I'll give you some pointers. In return you can teach me how to find a secretary as hot as Reynolds ;0) ). Another gem in this comedy is Ms Betty White (of "The Golden Girls" fame), an octogenarian in real life as well as playing one in "The Proposal". She has made an art of delivering "campy" with emotional intelligence. She does not dissapoint here either. Final verdict? Will this film change the course of modern cinematography? Not a fat chance! Did it chase my blah's away until Monday morning? AFFIRMATIVE!!! ...Till Wednesday... at least!

Awesome movie! This is one of my favorites, such a great cast! Always Makes me laugh and smile so I finally bought it. Can't go wrong with blu ray!

A comedy classic, an essential film to have in your collection. I bought this film originally to celebrate one of my favorite roles of the late Betty White and I was reminded how good this film was.

sandra and ryan have made an enjoyable comedy. She is his boss and talks him into faking marriage to stay in the united States. Then they fall in love.

A cute romantic comedy that stars Sandra Bullock as a boss who blackmails her assistant played by Ryan Reynolds. She needs for him to pretend they are engaged to convince an immigration officer because she fears she may be deported back to Canada. A visit to stay at his family's home during this charade lends to many funny moments and a "happy ending!!"
