Women, at times tend to get too sucked into the career mode and also tend to have a very cold heart when given undue powers in office. As always, I was at Sathyam last Sunday night for ‘The Proposal’ along with a few friends. The story begins in a very similar note, briefly explaining the typical problems that guys, who have a female bosses, face. Margaret, played beautifully by Sandra Bullock is a very successful (& powerful) chief editor at a publishing company. Andrew (played by Ryan Reynolds) is out in New York, struggling to get his book published, working under Margaret for 'bout 3 years. Cunning Margaret, who heartlessly plans to use Andrew to gain US citizenship, ends up realizing that she's been missing out on all the finer things in life. The movie reminds me specially of one of my recent friends, who always manages to get herself tied up with work, work and more work.
The movie as a whole, although predictable like most romantic comedies, has a unique charm added to very beautiful and scenic shots done at Alaska. Added with some nude scenes from the couple and some real funny truths bout guys (...!), this movie is definitely worth 2 hrs on a Sunday evening to relax. I'd rate this 4 outta 5 for those who love romantic comedies. And all you working women out there taking work too seriously, stop for a minute and look around you (at all the good looking men…! he he he) and take some time off…
