A just-plain well-made sports movie with superb audience appeal, charming personalities, a sprightly demeanor and totally entertaining.
"The Blind Side" is Sandra Bullock’s best performance ever. Her sassy and brassy character’s dynamics depend entirely on insightful, professional interpretation and she proves consummately skilled at every line, every nuance and a consistently on-target southern accent.
Director John Lee Hancock seems to perceive, at every moment, the dialogue, body language, story progression, photography and editing to keep his film stepping in a polished lively pace, with gripping, carefully delivered emotions and an unerring sense of audience involvement. It has a refreshing integrity about it, with sharp insights into the present-day South in relation to race matters. One may complain slightly that it could have used more volatile material here and there, but I’m totally satisfied.
Michael Oher was born among 13 siblings in the slums of Memphis, an African-American child from a broken home. He had never known his father who, in fact, was murdered, something which this child learned only after he’d entered high school. His mom was a crack addict, his brothers and sisters soon scattered everywhere. Oher (Quinton Aaron) was destined for NFL stardom. Bodily, he was huge.
Oher (Quinton Aaron), classmate of teenager Collins (Lily Collins), is invited by her mother Leigh Ann Tuohy (Sandra Bullock) to be taken under the wing of their affluent white family, with loving dad Sean (Tim McGraw) and smart-mouthed but football-savvy son SJ (Jae Head). Leigh Ann is a successful interior decorator and dad owns many fast-food eateries.
This is happening in Oher’s senior year at high school. They dedicate themselves to help the very withdrawn Oher rise by his own resources which, at first, do not impress the staff at the well-heeled private school. But the football coach (Ray McKinnon), who’s desperate at this point for some budding game force, gets Oher in as a student. How he’s to learn sophisticated history, literature and writing is another matter, even given over to the dedication of a special private tutor (Kathy Bates).
Oher shows excellent talent as a football player, much to the pride also of the Tuohy family who have a history of football playing. It is determined early on in the relationship that Oher’s psychology includes a profound and very deep desire to protect those about whom he cares. The coach, perfectly aware that in the game of football it’s the left tackle who’s supposed to protect the quarterback from blind side attacks, sees this protection aspect of the physically imposing Oher as invaluable.
Yet how is Oher, with a grade-point averaged of 1.5 (a "D"), going to qualify for the universities whose scouts are coming after him.
More than Quinton Aaron as Michael, Sandra Bullock throws herself into this role with a driving perfection. Her Leigh Ann’s feisty, no-nonsense energy proves to be an audience-captivating generator of appreciative emotional attachment.
With not even a hint of a dull moment anywhere, and lots of chuckle-worthy encounters, allowing only a carefully parceled sentimentalism, I’ll recommend this as one of the most engaging little dramas of the year.

The title “the Blind Side” comes from American football: That the quarterback who carries the ball needs someone to protect his “blind side” if he is to make it to the goal. And it is indeed the real story, of how family and friends.
The Blind Side Takes the Box Office
From the looks of it, The Blind Side has endured the box office race quite well as a sleeper hit movie. No special effects or awesome CGI wonder that grabs our attention, just pure story about helping those in need.
Part Remember the Titans, part The Rookie, The Blind Side is a well rounded film, willing to address both ends of the prejudice isle (especially white prejudice). It delves into the false belief that upper class means better class.
