Always about white helping black.

Rating: 7/10 (5 October 2012)

I never liked movies with Sandra Bullock. I just don't like this actress. In this movie though, she is watchable. This movie is about a white Christian family who takes care of a black boy and give him everything his own parents never could give him, because he comes from a poor family. He gets a car, wrecks it and the white people don't care. He gets his own room, gets private schooling, his little brother and very, very beautiful sister take him as their brother.
Now I have seen Untouchables and now I have seen this movie, they both are lovely movies. But to me they are not very realistic. Maybe they happened in real life, I don't know, but as a colored boy I grew up in a white neighborhood and the one thing I learned is that white people, they just don't care about colored people. So maybe I just grew up in the wrong areas of the world, but movies like Untouchables and The blind side are just like Disney movies to me; What you are watching is just good entertainment, but it ain't real.
Good acting though, good story. Very little emotions, drama. All the drama comes out of the story and not from the acting. That's a pity.
