It's A Family Tradition.

Rating: 6/10 (18 August 2017)

I absolutely love Sandra Bullock. She is elegant and just so charming with every performance, and her execution in this film is another triumph. With that said however, I will admit that sadly, I don't feel that this was an Oscar Winning performance. Again, I absolutely love Sandra, and her portrayal in this film is awesome, but... Oscar, not too convinced.
The Blind Side is incredibly enjoyable and a pleasure to watch. It is heartwarming, and quite inspiring, but, I feel that it really could've been more - still remain what it is, but more. The editing and direction was somewhat uneven... The pace, a tad bit unstable, but again, enjoyable.
My biggest problem with The Blind Side though, was Quinton Aaron. This role proved too big and too heavy for him to carry. Outright, Quinton Aaron was unsatisfactory. He just, couldn't deliver, and the film suffered greatly because of it, given his role. It's obvious almost, that a limited amount of actors could play the role of "Big Mike", considering the age and size combo, and that worked well for Quinton, but, I feel, at the demise of Michael Oher's story.
Tim McGraw and Jae Head were awesome and their characters were somehow the glue that put this story together very well. They may not have had big roles, but, they played extremely necessary parts.
The Blind Side could've easily been a 7+/10, but the editing, direction and Quinton's woeful outing, compromised what was an absolute joy to watch otherwise.
6.4/10.
