The Proposal – Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. I am a Sandra Bullock fan so I went to the theater as soon as this one came out. I must say I really enjoyed it. I laughed a lot and there was even a scene that made me cry. What about Mr. Reynolds? I have been seeing a lot of him lately and I am not just talking about in the movies. Have you seen that man’s six pack? Whew!

Reynolds plays Andrew Paxton a man whose boss is not very nice. Sandra Bullock plays Margaret Tate, Andrew’s boss. Margaret is from Canada working for a company in America, when she finds her time running out on her visa. Desperate to keep her job, she blackmails Andrew into marrying her so she can stay. Andrew stuck between a rock and hard place, decides to drag her home to his parent’s house for the Holidays. The big surprise is telling his family that he is getting married. Of course they have a hard time believing their son is in love with this woman, for Margaret is not Andrew’s type at all.

Having a hard time of making this romance seem real they end up spilling the truth of why they are really getting married and that they plan to divorce as soon as Margaret is legal. What they don’t expect is to fall in love along the way. This movie is touching and yet funny that I think many will enjoy.

Here are the mistakes I found.

During the scenes where Margaret is proposing to Andrew in New York you can plainly see the same woman walking by three times.

On Andrew’s desk some of the equipment is lacking power cords even though they are on.

During one of the proposal scenes you can also see a truck with DEE DEE on the side pulling up behind a Fed Ex truck several times between shots.

When Andrew’s friend yells down to him while he is up on the Airport tower it looks like his mouth is not moving even though we can clearly hear him yelling.

The Alaskan scenery is spectacular, and the house that Andrew’s parents live in is beautiful enough to make me want to move there. Makes me wonder how they find these places to make their movies. Simply stunning!

Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds work well on screen together. I hope there are more films with the two of them. I recommend this one to anyone who likes either actor.
