The blind side

The name of the movie doesn't really tell you much about the movie. The beginning itself explains what the term 'the blind side' means. Its a term used in the game of rugby here in this movie, which means a move, or a side that was left uncovered and hence lead to the team's loss. However, the movie is not entirely about the game and its intricacies.
This movie is about a poor black who resides in USofA and whose athletic ability would have gone unnoticed or unused, or worse his life would have ended in some gang war, if he hadn't met a kind soul Leigh Anne (Sandra Bullock) at the right time. Leigh Anne, is a well to do mother of two and living a happily married life with her husband and kids. She is often involved in charity work and thinks it is each one's duty as a Christian. When she sees Michael (Quinton Aaron) in the same set of clothes day in and day out, picking up leftover popcorn at the stadium for food she knows that he needs help. She helps him and he is now part of their family. A black among the whites (cat among the pigeons?)
The story thus moves on, Leigh Anne boosting Michael's long lost confidence and thus evolves a beautiful story of emotions and relations.
The actors have done a brilliant job. I specially liked Sandra Bullocks acting, all her expressions were very natural. Quinton Aaron has also done a brilliant job.
The story is simple, the direction good and the story telling makes you want to watch it.

I'd say its a must watch!
