Don’t Miss This Movie

Let’s get this out of the way right now.
I’m not caught up in the Twilight Saga.
So while everyone was watching that this weekend, I wasn’t.
I looked back and realized it’s been almost a full year since I’ve reviewed any movies. You would think I would make it a regular blog feature, maybe do it monthly since we get free movie tickets.
But that would require planning and organization which is not my strong suit right now.
Instead I’m working more on being spontaneous so PhilBillPaul and I decided to squeeze in a movie last night. As I’ve shared before, I’m kind of picky and don’t like to waste time in a mediocre movie even if it is free!
What a nice surprise to watch a movie that was funny and poignant and really makes you stop and think about the blessings all around us.
If you see just one movie this holiday season, I think this is the one to see…
The Blind Side starring Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw
It is based on a true story about a family in Tennessee who take in an amazing teenager who needs a home.

Scary Baby really wants to see it but we needed to see it first since it is rated PG-13. Entertaining with a message we hope all our kids will get. For me, it’s that rare movie that I will gladly sit and watch again.
Go see it and come back and tell me if you like it as much as I did!
Well I had planned on seeing it anyway. Glad to know that you rated it so high! Will try to see it soon…
And I’m with you. Haven’t read the books and didn’t see the first movie even after it came out on DVD. We even own a copy, but I’m just not interested in wasting my time….
There are two nice articles on “Blind Side” in WORLD magazine if anyone is interested in the true story behind the movie.
I can’t wait to see it…glad to hear its good! No twilight for me either…I am picky as well about movies …its a time thing…happy thanksgiving!
We saw this today and it is well worth seeing! If you only see one movie this year this is the one.
