'The Proposal' web reviews

Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds first hate, then love each other in Anne Fletcher's romantic comedy "The Proposal," and here is what some of the Web's critics have to say about it (read my review here):

• Collider's Matt Goldberg: "Despite its rushed opening and rocky finish, 'The Proposal' is a romantic comedy that doesn’t break any new ground but works well as a date film because of Bullock and Reynolds’ terrific performances."

• Brad Brevet at RopeOfSilicon: "This film simply misses its mark. It happens, and with a conceit like this I'm not really surprised."

• Latino Review's Ron Henriques: "Bullock and Reynolds work rather nicely together with and without friction and when the story turns towards that familiar conclusion, it isn't as painful as you would think and may even put a smile on your face."

• CinemaBlend's Josh Tyler: "Director Anne Fletcher handles her film with a light, self-aware touch and the movie’s supporting characters make the most of their moments, enough to get us through the all too conventional rough patches."

• Cinematical's Jette Kernion: "Despite the tired and sometimes mean-spirited jokes, Bullock is still delightful to watch."

• Joblo's Jenna Bush: "With the exception of Sandra Bullock rapping, I could have predicted each scene before it happened. That said, it's is still surprisingly entertaining."

I just got what I expected. Sandra is always great in all of her light romance movies. Ryan did a great job in working with a great performer, and he is good looking too. Watching this movie gave me a good relaxing way to end my busy week. Thumbs up to you both.
