The Proposal
No consensus on The Proposal. Across 159 matchups it sits at 48% — exactly where 50% puts you, winning and losing in equal measure. Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds carrying a rom-com on chemistry alone, which is exactly what the genre demands and exactly what limits it in a bracket. Charm gets it through the door; the script doesn't give it enough to stay. Among Anne Fletcher's films on BingeBracket, nothing beats it.
Synopsis
When she learns she's in danger of losing her visa status and being deported, overbearing book editor Margaret Tate forces her put-upon assistant, Andrew Paxton, to marry her.
The deadlock is real overall, but round by round there are cracks. 58% in the opening is genuinely strong; 29% in the semis is genuinely weak. The coin flip is an average, not a constant.
The Proposal dominates Notting Hill at 67%. When Harry Met Sally... at 28% is the one matchup where that confidence disappears.
The path through Valentine's Day Showdown 2026 always ends the same way for The Proposal: a final against 10 Things I Hate About You, a 56% loss rate. So close and so consistent.
The Proposal leads Anne Fletcher's filmography on BingeBracket, though only 2 films are tracked so far. Hocus Pocus 2 at 28% is the comparison point.
