Los Angeles Strip Clubs: The Proposal: One unfortunate collage of rom-com clichés
What was proven by this film is that Ryan Reynolds should star in every romantic comedy ever made from here until eternity. His delightful combination of earnest emotion with slapstick comedy makes him the perfect male lead that could fit in every rom-com role, and makes the one believable character in the entire film.
Just having him in the film makes up for Sandra Bullock rocking out to “Get Low” while Grandma Annie (Betty White) dances around a fire worshiping Mother Earth. Tell me you expected that when walking into this film.
Even more demeaning (and going back to “The Office” references) is the character(s?) played by Oscar Nuñez. For an actor whose “Office” character Oscar is so offended by the racial stereotypes boss Michael Scott forces on him, I was disappointed to see Nuñez sink so low in his “Proposal” role. With his shoddy hispanic accent and far-too-drawn-out strip tease, I don’t know if I can respect Oscar in “The Office” the same way again.
