Margaret (Sandra Bullock), a prominent book editor in New York proposed to her executive assistant Andrew (Ryan Reynolds) when she faces deportation back to Canada. Andrew must marry Margaret so that she could stay in the US and save her job. So it is now Margaret who is wooing Andrew for him not to back out. Margaret even promised Andrew a promotion once it is done. Now, Andrew and Margaret fly to Sitka, Alaska to break the news to Andrew’s family before the Immigration Agent knows that the coming wedding is just a set up. During their weekend visit to Andrew’s family and while convincing everyone that they are really a couple, they unexpectedly fell in love with each other.
I really enjoyed the movie. Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds are good combination for a romantic-comedy movie. Reynolds delivered the lines well and I have to say he’s very charming and oozing with sexiness (as always). Bullock on the other hand made me laugh so hard especially the part when she said Sit-ka, Al-aska. One character that I also love from the movie is Andrew’s grandma. She’s very funny and her lines are very hilarious. I will definitely watch it again!
My rate:
I agree, it was a really good movie. I saw it at a preview screening and everyone was laughing.

I used to hate Sandra Bullock because back in the day her and Geneth Paltrow always palyed victims. I love them both now. I like them as actresses and as people. I started liking Sandra when she did the Miss Congeniality movies. She was so funny but I also liked that she was different and in Miss Congeniality 2 she didn’t take no sh*t. Even though she’s beautiful she has this awkwardness about her that makes her even more beautiful and she is sooooo funny! I loved the proposal. It was funny, romantic and touching and I do have a copy in my movie library.
same here dani! i really love the movie. sandra is so good in the movie. i like her most in funny movies compared to serious one. i watched both ms. congeniality 1 and 2 and i really had fun. looking forward to the 3rd movie. thanks dani for dropping by.
