The Blind Side

This fact alone makes this movie incredible.....Although this movie seems fictitious....In a way, this heart-warming movie seems almost too good to be true....If they were any more present, the feel-good aspect of the film would have been lost.....If you're hoping for a good sports film, this movie isn't the one you're looking for, nor is it the one.... ...

But the movie's pretty daggum good too.....Good performances, some approaching great....Newcomer Quinton Aaron excels as Michael Oher, a role....a lot of humor make this movie an inspirational choice for your family this Thanksgiving..... ... Full Review

All of this aside, "The Blind Side" is a decent family film that is sure to be successful during the Thanksgiving holiday.....it is taken too far, and his story suffers because of it.....The film knows its audience well....Apparently, this is supposed to make the story more heartwarming....No matter which side of that issue one sits on, the film seems to handle the controversy pretty well..... ...

The Blind Side" is a great movie that provides a great role for Bullock and a rarity for a mainstream films:....Both actresses are at their best in this awkward, sorrowful scene that reveals more with looks....Director John Lee Hancock also helmed "The Rookie," which is among my favorite movies.....it's a pleasure to watch them together.....They have sweet moments to be sure.... ... Full Review

Bullock did a little better than the trailers first showed.....It's just good casting.....Tim McGraw wasn't believable in my opinion.....Now, honestly, Disney added some corny scenes..... ... Full Review

There's nothing particularly bad about "The Blind Side" -....Lack of grit, nuance handicaps feel-good football movie....If that isn't indicative of the movie's flaws, I don't know what is.....For a while, we're smitten by her sexy, sassy demeanor, but, eventually, Leigh Anne's stunts -....but they're touching in an expected way that cheapens the true weight of the story..... ... Full Review

The Blind Side" is a movie full of laughs and tender moments -....it's just another story of white guilt, read this.....Tim McGraw turned in a solid performance as the man behind the woman, Sean Tuohy, owner of fast food franchises and all around good guy....Lily Collins , who ironically plays Oher's sister Collins Tuohy also rounded out this solid cast..... ...

The Blind Side doesn't transcend the genre....it's a retread of nearly every underdog film that's come before it..... ... Full Review

The Blind Side also tallied a terrific "A+" CinemaScore, which should bolster the film through the rest of the year as a true word-of-mouth hit.....The top ten films raked in $245 million, an insane 59 percent jump from last year (when Twilight was king).....Despite the film's sharp drop from its record-setting $72.7 million opening day -....Sandra Bullock continued her stellar year, with her true-life sports drama The Blind Side clearing an estimated $34.5 million for second place..... ... Full Review

But while the film succeeds as a crowd pleaser, it almost does disservice to Oher's life struggle.....The lack of forward direction makes audiences drift off for a bit as silence is often in the film.....The Blind Side" is a riveting rags-to-riches tale of Michael Oher, but the film never captures the raw and harsh reality of Oher's life struggle.....Tim McGraw also seems to get better with every film he plays in.....Overall, "The Blind Side" is a fabulously true tale of family, love and football..... ...
