Last night I sat down to watch "The Blind Side". Let me first remind you that I am not a huge sports fan. But for some strange reason I LOVE sports movies. The ones with a semi sappy story. Like "Remember the Titans," "Glory Road," and "Miracle." They are some of my favorite movies. Ones that I can watch over and over again.
After Sandra Bullock won her award, and Quinton Aaron was on Law and Order this week I finally took time to watch the movie. "The Blind Side" did not disappoint. It was a fantastic film. I laughed, I cried and everything in between.
I believe that Sandra Bullock might be one of the most under-appreciated actresses out there. I love her in almost everything she is in. I will forgive her for Miss Congeniality 2 and even for Speed 2. But in this film she shines. After awhile I forgot it was her and just saw her as Leigh Ann Tuohy. She is such a wonderful actress and always seems so down to earth. The rest of the cast (including country artist Tim McGraw) also did a wonderful job.
I highly recommend this movie to anyone looking for an inspirational feel-good movie. For another review check out Confessions of a Philly Girl who also just blogged about "The Blind Side." Happy Watching.
Wasn't this a great movie. I was so impressed by Bullock. She looked great and did a great job acting. A very inspirational story!
ReplyDeleteI'm very excited to see this one!Hopefully this week. I love sports movies, I think it's the team spirit thing that gets me.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about sports movies! I think my favourite is "The Rookie" with Dennis Quaid.
ReplyDeleteOh Debbie thats a good one too! I also thought of Invincible with Mark Whalberg. Also a fairly good one.
