At long last, It finally arrived! I'd been expecting The Blind Side to come out over here for a while, after my friend went to see it in New York what seems to be lightyears ago. Not being a regular movie buff, she kept raving and raving about it so I knew it had to be at least half decent, and then came the Oscars. Sandra Bullock is one of my fave actresses, I think shes brilliant and deserved an Oscar long before now. However, seeing her performance in The Blind Side, I think it was worth the wait. Its such a lovely film that really reminds you how nice people can really be. To be honest, if it didn't have all this hype about it being a true story and someone told me after watching it, I'd be like Yeah...Right. Because pigs do fly. It seems to have such your typical Hollywood ending, providing a nice reminder that they do exist. Sandra Bullock played such a strong inspiring character and I think she carried it off fantastically, with the odd comic relief thrown in. In general, a great film and a well deserved Oscar.
