    I thought Sandra Bullock pulled this role off well. For what it's worth, its a quirky, goofy movie that offers some laughs and some meaningful moments.

    Sandra Bullock has unbelievable range as an actress! Watch The Proposal first and then watch this movie and you'll see what I mean. The movie is quirky, sad, fun, exciting, and romantic all at once! It's not your ordinary girl gets boy or vice-versa but a complex yet simple statement of the uniqueness of life and that we all must achieve to be who we are. Normalcy isn't for everyone - Thank God!… Expand

    The reviewers completely didn't understand this one. I almost didn't go because of the "17" rating. More seventeens, please. I guess the reviewers had a hard time grasping that someone with such good looks can be such a social disaster, but the character has several traits of some people with Asperger syndrome, high intelligence, lots of factual information, and not much ability to fit in. I thought it was so, so much better than most movies that are at the movies right now.… Collapse

    This movie, despite the obvious pretensions of these critics, is the best movie that I have seen since Georgia Rule. Movies of this caliber rarely make their way into wide distribution, because the movie-watching public generally does not care about such crucial elements as plot, depth, and emotional vitality--all they want is ironic banter that tries to be witt, but sounds like a couple of undergraduate improv comedy actors in a survey level Philosophy class, second rate indie pop soundtracks, or glorious T&A. I sincerely thank Kim Barker and Phil Traill for not kowtowing the tends of the vulgar masses, and crafting a work of art worthy of absolute veneration and cultural consecration.… Expand

    A dippy clunker like All About Steve has no purpose other than as a challenge: If you laden a usually charming A-lister with a thoroughly off-putting, unhinged character, can she claw her way to likability? The short answer is no. The long answer is, what in the world was Bullock, who also produced the movie, thinking?

    A head-banging excuse for a comedy.

    Much of what's offensive and insufferable about All About Steve can be laid at the feet of screenwriter Kim Barker, best known for inflicting "License to Wed" on the world. Why do these people still earn obscene amounts of money churning out dreck? And why do stars like Bullock keep paying them?
