I'm so glad to finally find someone who agrees with me about this film. I thought it was just pretty aweful. Aweful, contrived story and acting. You are right about people just like the "idea" of the character and story and it takes off. In addition, a lot of people don't have an opinion of their own. I really hated it- not oscar worthy.
@irishfan7509 You mean what qualifications do I have? Uhh, I think everyone has an opinion about anything with movies and they are allowed to voice that opinion. I've also seen probably more movies than most I would say...and I also write for my college newspaper for film reviews. I think anyone can talk about movies! Everyone's got an opinion, right?
I agree-Sandra Bullock is pretty overated,doesnt deserve an Oscar,not even a Golden Globe.
By the way-are you seeing Avatar soon-can't wait to hear your thoughts on,I've been so excited about seeing it, I am going skiing on the 18th,so i will somehow have to see it abroad(thats how I obsessed i am)
i figured exactly as much about this film. i had no intention of seeing it but my wife hardly ever watches any movies and i guarantee this is one she would really enjoy.
Oh one more thing. It's only if you feel like it, but would you do a review of a film called "Red?" It stars Brian Cox and Tom Sizmore. I'd like to hear your thoughts.
I strongly suggest reading the Michael Lewis book, Blindside, from which this film is apparently based. Naturall, the book explores at better elngth some of the issues you feel the movie glossed over. I am not a sports fan in any sense of the word, but I actually enjoyed reading this book. The author really delves into the changing character of pro football and how it reaches deep even into middle school sports. Try the read, you won't be disappointed!

I'm afraid your chances of rioting the streets of L.A. is looking pretty good now. She's gonna get Oscar-nominated on Tuesday.
