Bland

Rating: 5/10 (12 January 2014)

The Blind Side accurately recounts the incredible journey of Michael Oher, who became NFL champion with the Baltimore Ravens since the release of the movie.
Unfortunately, John Lee Hancock delivers his story in a monotony inversely proportional to Michael's exceptional ascent. The movie turns out to be too bland, too tidy, the script is predictable, pretty shallow, and relies so much on melodramatism that, after more than two hours, it becomes annoying.
What The Blind Side lacks is emotions, and in this sense, other directors, such as Clint Eastwood or maybe Peter Berg, probably would have elevated the level of this feature for which god knows how Sandra Bullock received the Oscar for best actress.
