I saw the movie Blind Side like 20 mins ago. Please don't even bother because i know everyone has heard this story at least 100 times.
Poor kid living on the street, getting beat, moms a crack head, and dad is dead. Fortunately rich white folks take him into their homes and make all of his dreams come true plus making him a big superstar.
Happily ever after, everyone is happy and rich.
Not reality, and defiantly not a message to be sending to young people.
It's like being average or being an over achiever is not good enough anymore. no no no no, to follow your dreams or to make your self noticed you have to have a terrible life and child hood.
Its like, me personally, i am an average student i get alright grades, not the best. I struggle, and i have dreams too! My mom is a good mom, i love her. I dont really talk to my dad, but we're okay. And i have dreams to be a well known writer/journalist. But whos gonna make a movie out of that lame life? So i guess, i should start doing crack, and maybe i should be a prostitute. And maybe my dad should beat/rape me. Then i will live on a street and tell you that a nice/snotty rich woman will take me in her home, clean me up and make all my dreams come true. Because thats what people love to hear. Thats what's interesting in today's society. So imma go get right on my dream, but before i do that i have to go find a guy that will abuse me first. OHHHH and maybe he will be in a gang too! oh yeah thats good, Right?

The reviewer says, "Not reality, and defiantly not a message to be sending to young people." Am I the only person who has read this review? Or could it be that people who read it, like the reviewer, don't follow football and don't know that it IS a true story, about Baltimore Raven Michael Oher. Really, this review is a disgrace. It is 100% wrong and the reviewer's lame attempt to be cute is insulting to an outstanding athlete, a selfless and giving family and a truly inspiring TRUE story.
