BLIND SIDE

Movie: Blind Side
Jan's Rating: 10
Time: 2 hours 8 minutes

Jan's Opinion: Hollywood should make more movies like this! Of course this being a true story makes you love it even more. My daughter, Michele, and grandson, Danny, went with me to see this movie and we all gave it a "10"! It is so heartwarming, and it is funny too. It is about a black homeless teenage boy who is offered a home by a southern white family (Sandra Bullock plays the Mother and Tim McGraw plays the Father) and how they help him to become a football star. You probably already know that this is the first year this same black teenage boy will be playing football for the Baltimore Ravens. Watch for him. His name is Michael Ohr. Not sure if I spelled Ohr correctly. Anyway, it is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time so if you haven't seen it, please put it on your list. I would think that women and men alike would enjoy it. Sandra Bullock did an excellent job of portraying a sophisticated, stern, spunky and caring woman all at the same time.
