Short Attention Span Review: "The Proposal"

Although this movie is amusing, its fundamentally flawed narrative premise and forced conclusion strip it of most redeemable features. At its core, The Proposal seems to preach that it's okay to give in to Stockholm Syndrome - to be extorted into a situation and then become enamored with your captor - rather than leaving yourself open to the possibility of making a fresh start with an old love or maybe finding a *real* love with that girl in the coffee shop back in New York City.

I liked about 75 percent of this movie a lot. But the ending killed it for me.
