Very well done and heartwarming

Rating: 9/10 (7 December 2009)

I would not be surprised if "The Blind Side" and Sandra Bullock are nominated for Best Picture and Best Actress '09. It's a most unusual story of how some of us really do take their Christian faith and obligations seriously instead of how many false money-grabbing prophets and faith healers inundate us all. And needless to say those Christian Aryan White Supremacists as well. Come to think of it, this film must infuriate the latter to the supreme height of hatred and frustration. And it's a TRUE STORY TO BOOT.
Google Michael Oher and up will come info about his playing tackle for the Balt. Ravens. This year is his NFL Rookie season. Just another excellent prospect? Heck no, there's a beautiful story attached to the evolution of Mike. A story about a Memphis based Caucasian family headed by Sandra Bullock whose compassion is as limitless as the spaciousness of their mansion. Just the opposite of the stereotypical Southerm "red necks."
"Big Mike," a gigantic, lonely, uneducated African-American, is transformed, through love,understanding and compassion,into a literate gentle giant by a family with great affection for the University of Mississippi. In fact we ask ourselves why Mike was never that crazy about Ol' Miss being that he "hangs" with such loyal boosters.
Enough said. An amazing transformation occurs and that's it from this end. By the way, an amazing job of acting is done by the young son of Sandra and husband played by Tim McGraw. The kid's name is "SJ" played by Jae Head. A real up and comer.
