The introduction of changing your life "The Proposal"

I do consider myself a pretty handsome guy. Not meaning to brag but I've had my share of girlfriend experience. Getting married has always been a pleasant dream of mine. It just hasn't planned out the way I wanted it to be. Just for starts I told myself that I would be married by the age of 25 and that didn't happen. To this day I really don't know where that came from. I'm not sure if it was during my dreams of going to the NFL or in more realistic times. Throughout half of my life, I've never been pressured into a relationship. I really don't know how truthful it can be to really have true love that way. There's plenty of ways to do things similar in the new millennium. We have all types of Internet dating sites or your married friends trying to hook you up. You could even find love by trying to talk to a girl that's already taken and she likes you so she finds someone for you. A friend once told me a while ago that I've always had girls fall in my lap. I never really got what that meant but I just denied it. I wish it could of happened the way it did in this movie.

A really good example of a power trip bi*$h is shown in this movie.
Margaret Tate (the hot girl Sandra Bullock)
is a chef auditor of a book company and gives off a persona of meanness. There's no doubt in the beginning of the movie. Right after she finished firing one of her employees it turns out that she's an immigrant from Canada. Not keeping track of time because of her fast paste lifestyle her green card runs out. The ironic part is the person that has a chance to help her out, is the one she fired. Now she's out of options the only way she can stay in America is to get married. She chooses to blackmail
Andrew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds) who is a motivated man trying to grow within the company. There are rules to getting married especially if it's under those circumstances it has to be an investigation on your love. Which sounds pretty messed up in itself. Because of that the newly weds have to travel to Alaska to meet Andrew's family. That's where it all goes down or up, it all depends on who you are, from there.

"That was a cute movie" that's what my girlfriend said. With me being a man and all I really can't agree with it being cute, but do think it was a pretty good chick flick. It was a couple of funny parts in the movie. The thing I hate most about TV advertisement is how they show some of the only funny parts of a movie. This situation was no different in this one although it was a couple of parts I didn't see. The one thing that bothers me about this movies is that its so predicable. Overall I will say that if your a single man you might want to stay at home to catch it on cable. If you're in a relationship I will say you won't be disappointed on a movie date.
