'The Blind Side' review

I've just watched 'The Blind Side' and it is an uplifting, heartwarming story. Though I know next to nothing about American football, I enjoyed it greatly. The heart of the story is NOT about football but about being a good person, and the value of honor and courage.

There are times when I felt the story became a touch too sentimental, but the acting - especially Sandra Bullock's and Quinton Aaron's - grounded it. There is an added bonus that it is a true story, and it is thus especially touching that there are still good, decent people out there, who do the right thing because it is right to do so.

I'm not gonna go into the story, because I don't want to be spoilerish, but do keep some tissue with you.

All in all, I strongly recommend the show for everyone.
