  Worth a watch
  
  Great light hearted film and well worth a watch. Typical Sandra Bullock film, witty, heart on sleeve etc. Rent if you like easy watching films.

  Worth watching from a genre that we will always need.
  
  An average/quite competent film of its genre. Sandra plays a part that she is good at; she's beginning to take on the female Hugh Grant archetypal role.read more »

  The Proposal, the Reality - the Disappointment
  
  THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS | Show review anywayHide
  
  It *sounds* excellent; an Accidental Husband-like tale, but with Bullock's gentle humour and Reynolds' boyish charms.
  
  Hmmn.

  Predictable and not very funny
  
  Comedies are normally predictable but this one is not funny.
  
  I don't buy the ending at all and people are too one dimensional for my liking.

  Predictable
  
  A shallow Saturday-night-with-the-girls film of little substance.
  
  But really not that bad if you like a predictable film with an obvious ending.read more »

  Could be better
  
  As usual excellent acting by Sandra Bullock. Sadly her co-star could not reciprocate. She always looked like she was trying to keep him afloat. Disappointing
