REVIEW: The Blind Side

The story of Michael Oher, a homeless and traumatized boy who became an All American football player and first round NFL draft pick with the help of a caring woman and her family.   
                                              
I missed this movie on the big screen but I'm glad I was able to see it on video. It amazes me that there are still people who are selfless. And Sandra Bullock's character as Leigh Anne Tuohy is heartwarming yet strong and firm with conviction in everything that she believes in. A supportive family is also important for one endeavor to achieve the desire to help a stranger, another human being.

I find myself crying in almost every scene where Leigh Anne and  Michael Oher are in it. I guess I am overwhelmed with love  and the scenes transcends it effectively to me as a viewer. Like I am witnessing a miracle right in front of me. The feeling was amazing. Wonderful. Happiness.

For me, this should have been the best picture at the 2010 Academy Awards. I hope everyone who gets to watch this movie would be touched and start to see goodness in others even in the most unexpected situations.

xoxo.
