'All About Steve' delivers exactly what it should (Posted 9/24/2009 10:48 am)
Sandra Bullock has, for the second time this summer, taken a new approach to the realm of romantic comedy.

Bullock’s first encounter with the summer romantic comedy was The Proposal. The film was cute and spunky and had all the makings of a good date movie. The film also mixed the traditional formula with some new, edgy comedy making for an enjoyable experience.

A movie is always more enjoyable when it isn’t what you expect and Bullock’s new film, All About Steve, is definitely something unexpected. The film follows crossword puzzle creator Mary Horowitz (Bullock) as she embarks in her life as a smart, pretty and extraordinarily strange woman.

Horowitz is set up on a blind date with Steve (Bradley Cooper) and quickly finds herself infatuated with the person she believes to be her soulmate. Mary decides to take Steve literally when he says he “wishes she could come with him” on an assignment and decides to follows him cross-country.
