The Blind Side (2009)




Entertainment: 5
Inaccurately marketed as a football film. The Blind Side is a light (considering the topic) and heartwarming drama. It was refreshing to watch a show about a teen/adult interaction that was not all about teen angst. That said, it moves a little slowly at times. Overall, this show a feel good character driven drama that is well worth watching.

Writing: 4
While the writing is acceptable, there were several points where I felt the writer had intended more than made it into the movie. One example, there seemed to be some conflict between Sandra Bullock's character and her daughter, but nothing materializes later. I could name several other inconsistencies, but most were minor.

Presentation: 4
Visually this show was acceptably presented. The acting was very good but the visuals were quite standard.
