The Proposal Review – Betty White rocks.it.out.
June 23, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
Movie: The Proposal * Official Site | In Theaters: June 19, 2009 |
Runtime: 107 minutes | Directed by: Anne Fletcher |
MPAA Rating: PG-13 for sexual content, nudity and language | Gecko Rating: |
The interesting thing about “The Proposal” is that it’s produced by Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, the team behind TV shows like “Fringe” and “Alias,” and movies like “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” “Star Trek,” and “Eagle Eye.” And then along comes “The Proposal,” and you’re going, that seems weird. It’s a romantic comedy amongst these other action projects.
But it works. Maybe that edginess is just what a romantic comedy needs to keep it from being mundane. Well, that and Betty White. At 87 years old, that girl rocks every line and steals every scene. I adore Betty White.
