rating: 4 QuoteA Unique WesternQuote
The Proposition definitely stands out in a crowd. The beautiful camerawork and intense emotional drama compensate for the somewhat slow pace of the film. However, its' unconventional, graphic climax is well worth waiting for. There is no good or bad guy in the movie; it's only people, motivated to do good or bad. And these motivations make the film stand out and give it a very realistic tone. If you get a chance, see this one. December 13, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteOutstanding, underappreciated piece of workQuote
I had intended to see this movie for a long time, but never really gotten around to it. I was finally sprung into action when I heard that John Hillcoat would be directing the upcoming adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's The Road (outstanding book, by the way). In short, let me simply say that not only has my excitement for that film increased ten fold, but I have a new film in my top 10. The performances to a one are pitch-perfect, with Guy Pearce and Ray Winstone leading the charge as men forced to make difficult decisions by the circumstances which surround them. The dialogue is outstanting, the premise is unique and compelling and the direction is truly perfect. I cannot recommend this overlooked gem enough. September 8, 2008

Great picture and sound quality that you come to expect from a Blu Ray Disc,plus there are some great extras to boot!!!(considering this disc is from First Look Studios,a pretty small independent company!)Actually this great disc has a great wealth of material for the price tag!!! A very recommended Blu Ray title!!! A+ September 6, 2008
