\"The<\/a>
The Proposal starring Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, Betty White and Mary Steenburgen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock<\/a>) is a beautiful, successful and workaholic editor at a big publishing firm in New York. However to her co-workers, she is the absolute bitch from hell; especially to her long-suffering assistant Andew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds<\/a>). He has been working day and night, putting in weekends so that he can be an editor himself. Unfortunately, this goal requires him being Margaret\u2019s slave.<\/p>\n

However Andrew gets the upper hand when Margaret is facing the problem of deportation as she is Canadian and her visa has expired. She finds the perfect solution: she will marry Andrew and keep her job and because she is staying in the firm, he won\u2019t be fired. The unwilling Andrew gets a bigger shock when the immigration officer Mr. Gilbertson (Dennis O\u2019 Hare) informs them that a fraud marriage will result in a prison sentence of 3 years and a fine about $250,000. So Andrew blackmails his way into an immediate promotion and they go to Alaska together to give Andrew\u2019s family the good news. Of course they have to pretend they are in love and keep \u201cthe fraud\u201d secret. So the grandmother Annie (Betty White<\/a>) and mother Grace (Mary Steenburgen<\/a>) are more than surprised when Andrew brings home the \u201cabsolute evil bitch\u201d. However they are happy to have Andrew back and they are willing to welcome Margaret into the family. But the father of the house (Craig T. Nelson) is already bitter because Andrew didn\u2019t take over the family business and moved to New York to be an editor\u2019s assistant, a job area he doesn\u2019t respect and a passion he doesn\u2019t understand. Of course trouble doesn\u2019t end there. Mr. Gilbertson isn\u2019t willing to leave them alone and the more Margaret gets to know the family, the more she gets to love them. And Andrew starts seeing a whole new side to Margaret. But how is a business deal is supposed to work when feelings get involved?<\/p>\n

The Proposal is one charming and hilarious romantic comedy. And don\u2019t get the \u201cromantic\u201d part in the romantic comedy to cloud your judgment, as the movie does a wonderful job of making you laugh. The cast is marvelous, especially Betty White. Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds have great chemistry and comedic timing together. This movie is 85-90% comedy. Note that gorgeous Malin Akerman also co-stars. She plays Gertrude, Andrew\u2019s high school sweetheart.<\/p>\n

Written by Pete Chiarelli and directed by Anne Fletcher. Sandra Bullock was nominated for Best Actress in a Comedy at the Golden Globes for her role. Rated at 6.7 on IMDB. All around fun. 7\/10 from me.<\/p>\n

Favorite Scenes: <\/strong><\/p>\n

* any scene with the dog Kevin \u2013 especially the \u201ceagle dance\u201d<\/p>\n

*The bathroom scene- the naked \u201cclash\u201d<\/p>\n

*Sandra Bullock and Betty White chanting in the forest together<\/p>\n

Favorite Lines: <\/strong><\/p>\n

– on the clash \u2013 Margaret blames it on the dog blocking her way.<\/p>\n

Andrew: Oh- I barely made my with my life out there.<\/p>\n

and\u00a0 pretty much anything during the ending credits.<\/p>\n
