we went to see "blind side" yesterday.

this is the best movie i've seen in a long time. i liked it better than avatar.

sandra bullock was hilarious and so was tim mcgraw as her husband, although he played a more laidback character. which if you've seen the actual couple on tv, the movie had them down pat.

the little boy, mike thought, stole the show.

i cried during this movie, it was so uplifting.

i kept wondering where kathy bates was, but she comes in near the close to end.

it's such a feel good movie.

and this one scene where she turns around in the football stand and says to this guy "hey deliverance. that's my son". i thought mike was going to choke laughing...

i hope she wins an award, i really do.

so please do go see it, it's such a good movie. one i'm going to buy.

this guy michael oher, in real life, is just amazing. course so is donald driver, my favorite.

go green bay....

it's about michael oher, a nfl ravens fullback. they're all from memphis. they're a white rich family and they take in this, well, orphan, realy and raise him.

it's a wonderful story.

i've heard some people say "oh yeah white rich family raises poor black kid." well, if you see them and know the family, it's not like that at all.

some people have even said they raised him to BE a pro nfl player so they could make money.

that's horrible, just horrible.

they're good christian people doing what they should.

you'll see it in the movie.

I have wanted to see this. I just saw an interview about it the other day and it looked so good.

I love Sandra Bullock. She is so funny. I think she has always been an underrated actress.

I can't wait to see it. Thanks for telling us about it Randibear! =)
