The Proposal


What's it about? Margaret's high flying New York life is almost destroyed when she faces deportation back to Canada - but can she solve it by bribing her assistant Andrew to marry her? 
Starring? Sandra Bullock , Ryan Reynolds 
If you are in the mood for a trashy , predictable romantic comedy  then this is the movie for you . If you however are just simply looking for a good film I would sit this one out. The film will make you laugh a couple of times and in parts the characters can be charming . Yet overall it is  a story that been done a thousand times , terribly predictable and therefore slightly boring. Two good looking people thrust into an unwanted relationship by circumstance - can we guess what happens next? I congratulate it for containing one tiny twist near the end but alas the finale will make you want to bury your head away from the unbearable cringe. 
Verdict? 2 stars , cheesy and predictable retrieved only by a glimmer of charm and humour.
