Too much fiction, not enough reality

Rating: 1/10 (9 June 2013)

I liked this movie the first time I saw it, but I knew it was like all "based on a true story". It was sugar coated and made to make people get all teary eyed. There is very little in the movie which I think is actually true and that is why I do not like it now.
For example, the scene where the NCAA investigator tells the "legal guardian" that they want to chat with Micheal alone. Huh. No. That's illegal.
You can Google "The Blind Side is a lie" to find a link to the NCAA website concerning the real investigation which took place at the HOME and not an office, plus the parents and the author of the book "The Blind Side: The Evolution of the Game" were present.
And I quote: "In the movie, the NCAA investigator is a hard-nosed authoritarian. She tells Bullock's character that she isn't allowed to sit in on the interview with her adopted son, and the interview takes place in an office. Thompson said it is against NCAA policy to refuse a parent or legal guardian from attending the interview."
In closing, I find most of the movie fake. Just about the only thing real is a big, talented, black guy who played football.
