Will Ryan and Sandra stay together? Will they even pass that wacky immigration interview? These are the questions for which The Proposal's twisty turny plot line spins in the wind and unfortunately, they all happen after the credits have already rolled. Betty White with her plucky can-do-it attitude will kick the bucket any day, Coach will keep playing dumb to (the incredibly sexy) Mary Steenburgen's sass, ultimately setting a bad marital example, and the centrifuge upon which the sexual tension and viable relational interest turns, namely the sadomasochistic who's top who's bottom scenario will sputter without the sadomasochistic who's top who's bottom centrifuge. And really, that Ramone character is just too delicious for Sandra to keep her hands off for long. So implausible. So unrealistic. Sandra Bullock needs to snort a couple more times in this one. But Betty White keeps the hits coming while Coach's nose has gotten enjoyably old-man bigger and that Ryan Reynolds sure is a movie star. And dammit if Mary Steenburgen isn't the sexiest howeveroldsheis out there.

I think Maybe Diane Lane or Salma Hayek would have been the clincher as the Sandra Bullock character.
And, really, they never should have gone back to Manhattan in the end. Some sort of high flying plane chase or something with the immigration officer puking in a bag.
NO puking in a bag. That is the worst idea I've ever heard. There is so much puking in movies and TV now that I can't take it anymore.
