Reviews on Dyalogues are always a dual affair. Think Siskel and Ebert when it came to reviewing movies, or your point-counterpoint newspaper editorial. Two heads are better than one when ruminating over the merits and faults of movies, books, products and just about anything that intrigues you. Dyalogues reviews can be serious or light-hearted, but they're always a dynamic way of expressing a verdict. They're also fun for readers, who can enjoy the impressions of two people who might not necessarily agree.

    Updated on Feb 26, 2010

    Rated: PG-13

    Running time: 2 hours, 6 minutes

    Directed by: John Lee Hancock

    Written by: John Lee Hancock, based on the book by “The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game” by Michael Lewis

    Starring: Sandra Bullock, Tim McGraw, Quentin Aaron, Kathy Bates, Lily Collins, Jae Head

    Even though the first thing The Blind Side offers us is an explanation of the game and the importance of the left tackle, the voice over provided by Sandra Bullock lets us know that this film - while about football - is also all about Bullock playing Leigh Anne Tuohy.  When the good-hearted spitfire Leigh Anne is driving her brood home from a school event and spots the lumbering Michael Oher sloshing through the rain and finds out he’s as homeless as he looks, she insists he hop in and come home with them.  Michael quickly becomes a part of the family, but slowly opens up.  He’s bright, but not the best student; so the Tuohy’s hire a tutor, Miss Sue (Kathy Bates).  He’s a wall of a guy and fiercely protective, but not an instant natural at football; so Leigh Anne, her son SJ (Jae Head) and Coach Cotton (Ray McKinnon) take turns teaching him skills.  His mother’s a crack addict and can’t help him or herself; so the Tuohy’s adopt him.  The Blind Side, based on the non-fiction book, “The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game” by Michael Lewis, is a story of a seemingly saintly rich white family who takes in a homeless African-American teenager who eventually goes onto NFL glory.  It’d be a pretty unbelievable story…if it weren’t true.
