The Proposal: What the Critics Say

Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullocks’ romantic comedy, The Proposal may have hit well in the blockbusters but what do the film’s critics say about the film.
Well I have searched through the net and compiled some reviews that the movie got from different sources. For those of you who have not watched the film yet, this can be your guide. Enjoy the read.
“While Bullock and Reynolds are mired in animosity, the laughs keep coming.”
- Claudia Puig
USA Today
“The Proposal won’t catch any bouquets for originality, but in terms of a bended-knee pitch for the affections of women — including Ryan Reynolds’ boyish charms–this romantic comedy pretty much pulls out all the stops.”
- Brian Lowry
Variety
“The movie, duly enjoyable, joins a long list of Bullock’s previous audience pleasing romance-centric films. For fans of Bullock and Ryan Reynolds’ spectacular abs only.”
- Richard Knight
Windy City Times
“It’s a pleasant time killer offering mindless entertainment and appealing stars.”
- Dennis Schwartz
Ozus’ World Movie Reviews
“Bullock and Reynolds are appealing enough to make viewers care if real love will emerge from the legal ploy.”
- Dan Lybarger

“What fate could be so horrible that someone would defraud the government, lie to family and friends, even marry someone they didn’t love just to avoid it? Why, moving to Canada, of course.”
- Rob Thomas
Capital Times (Madison, WI)
“I was engaged by the fiery chemistry between Bullock and Reynolds.”
- Jolene Mendez

Well the movie ain’t out yet here in the Philippines, but reading those reviews, I sure can’t wait to catch it cinemas here.
