The Blind Side's a feel-good film that should attract both sexes due to the subject matter. There's gridiron action as well as fully developed characters in this compelling tale of family and football. To paraphrase a quote from an ex-NFL coach, The Blind Side is what we thought it would be, but it's also a whole lot more. Inspiring, heart-wrenching, warm, and funny, The Blind Side is a real winner.

The Blind Side is an excellent movie that manages to be about football without ever being a "football movie." The performances are truthful and you're left fully invested not only in Michael, but in the Tuohys in general. It really does overcome all it could have been to be a subtler, smarter film than one might expect.
