Review of The Blind Side (2009) by Shawn E — 20 May 2012
The Blind Side is a Hallmark made-for-TV movie blown up and overhyped to big screen proportions. The most disappointing aspect of this movie is that you can sense there is a truly touching story that inspired it.
The final product, however, is a cloying, sappy, cliched mess. Sandra Bullock's performance, you ask? Well...she has an accent in this movie. I guess that's good enough for an Oscar these days.
The Best Picture nod is an even bigger mystery as the film is anything BUT exceptional.
