Why do they bother to make films like these?


Load of bollocks. I'm ashamed of the fact that these kind of movies make millions (probably only because of the cast). Hollywood is going down the drain with movies like Twilight and the Proposal. Had to let it out. Among the worst movies I've ever watched.

Maybe because some people want to watch said movies ?
Maybe the proposal isn't the best movie in the world but (as you said) the cast is made of great actors, there is chemistry between them, and despite some "average" moments the story makes sense.
And... well there is emotion in this movie. Maybe you just missed it.


Oh yeah twilight is bad... but this isn't the place for that :)

It's precisely the place for that. Predictable, lame, unfunny, and the same formula over and over. Some people are just too dumb to realize it. Sandy ruined every aspect of this piece of garbage. She's just awful.

She is a great actress and was great as always in this movie.

Maybe because people like me love them.

May I ask :
Why do u bother to watch it ?!
And if it's the worst, why watch untill the end ?!
No offence but it's nice to daydream sometimes, nothing less, nothing more.
From Paris with love.

Because there's a massive market of fat ugly women who wanna watch pointless, braindead cliche love flicks with hot guys and women. None of which reflect real life.

Because people want escapism.

What a dreary time we'd have if all movies only depicted real life. Entertainment and escapism are legitimate, important artistic goals. This movie achieved those goals.
