And we are back again for another exciting edition of FAB or FLOP. Our review today is about the film, "The Blind Side" featuring Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw.
First a little bit of background on the film. This movie is about a true story. The people presented in the film actually exist and the events really happened. For those who may not recall the plot of this movie here are the basics. A prominent white family living in Memphis end up taking in a larger than life black teenage boy into their home and have him become a part of their family. This boy goes on to be a star player in the NFL. Like I said the bare-bones basics.
Anyways the movie was excellent. Everyone and I mean everyone from your 5-yr-old sister to your ancient grand-dad should see this movie. All the actors were phenominal in their parts, but the story itself is what makes this film truly great. One of the very cool things about this movie is at the end in the credits it shows photos of the actual family. I will not say anymore other than if you have not seen this movie yet, put it at the top of your list.
SIDE NOTE
While I have not seen the movie Avatar myself yet (and the previews looked amazing) I am beginning to wonder if this movie will be as good as it has been built up to be. A friend's status last night stated, "Thought Avatar was ok, but the guy behind me was snoring." What do you think? If you have seen the movie already it is time to sound-off and let us know your opinion. Was it FAB or was it a big FLOP!
