REVIEW:
If you enjoy sports dramas filled with action and light hearted comedy, The Blind Side is the perfect film for you. The Blind Side tells the extraordinary true story about a homeless black boy named Michael Oher, who is taken in by Leigh Anne Tuohy and her husband, Sean, who change his life forever. With help from his new family, his coach, and his teachers, Michael realizes his potential to become an educated student and a football star. This movie was even better than I expected it to be. Director John Lee Hancock, who directed The Rookie and the 2004 flop The Alamo really makes on of the best films of the year. It is also somewhat hard to believe that this is a true story. Sandra Bullock makes one of the best performances of her career as Mike's adoptive mother. Also, Quinton Aaron, who plays Michael Oher is the perfect choice for the role he played. This movie also is the feel good film of the holiday season. It keeps a smile stapled onto your face for the duration of the movie. Anyway, this isn't a movie that has to be seen in theaters and can be better as a rental than seeing it on the big screen. Either way, just see The Blind Side in any format possible. Trust me, you won't regret seeing it. Hut, Hut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
