Editorial Reviews for  'The Blind Side'
 
Description
Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron) knows little about family. Less about football. What the homeless teen knows are the streets and projects of Memphis. Well-to-do Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock) knows little about his world. Yet when she and Michael meet, he's found a home. And the Tuohys have found something just as life-changing: a beloved new son and brother. This real-life story of family and of Michael's growth into a blue-chip football star will have you cheering with its mix of gridiron action and heartwarming emotion. Share the remarkable journey of the college All-American and first-round NFL draft pick who was a winner before he ever stepped onto the playing field.

The Blind Side takes the true story of a young man who went from abandonment to success as a pro-football player and treats it with respect. The movie doesn't oversell what is, on the face of it, already compelling. It's almost impossible to describe the plot without sounding painfully inspirational: Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron, Be Kind Rewind), a hulking but gentle African-American teen in Tennessee, gets taken in by a well-to-do white family; the mother, Leigh Anne Touhy (Sandra Bullock), pushes and mothers the boy, who eventually wins a football scholarship to the University of Mississippi. In the wrong hands, this could have been maudlin, manipulative, and condescending. To the credit of writer-director John Lee Hancock, adapting Michael Lewis's acclaimed book, the result is intelligent, genuine, and alternately funny and moving. Leigh Anne could easily have been grandstanding and virtuous, but Bullock doesn't shy away from her vain and domineering side. The football scenes will be gripping even to non-sports fans because they've been so successfully grounded in Michael's emotional life. The all-around solid cast includes country music star Tim McGraw, pint-sized Jae Head (Hancock), and Kathy Bates as the tutor who guided Michael's academic success. Don't be surprised if you can't keep yourself from watching all the real-life photos of Michael, Leigh Anne, and the rest of the family that are featured in the credits; by the end of the movie, you will care about them all. --Bret Fetzer
 
Customer Reviews for  'The Blind Side'
 
Good and wholesome
Nice to see a movie that seemingly tells it like it was. What a shame that they now talk about making more movies like this but they will be sure to remove any Christian aspect of it.
 
The Blind side
Sandra bullock was outstanding in her role, made you want to be better, do the right thing, A feel good movie, They don't make enough of them and to know its a real life experience makes it that much greater.
 
OMG BEST MOVIE EVER MADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
When I first saw this movie i thought it would be all about football but it is about much more than that. I would have to say this is the best movie ever.
 
Great Family Movie
Blind Side is not only a superb family movie, but I learned a lot about football! Hah!
 
Poor Quality DVD
Delivery was fast. When I played the movie the quality was very poor and led me to believe it may have been a copy pirated. Two-thirds way through the movie it glitched every three minutes until I finally gave up. I was very disappointed in the quality of the DVD.

I had saved the original box my DVDs came in and sent the movie back to Webanix in it's original shipping box with a note inserted in the DVD case explaining the poor quality. Webanix was very quick to give me a complete refund and a refund of my shipping costs. Webanix handled the matter very well and I prefer buying from Webanix over eBay now.
