The Blind Side

I watched The Blind Side and it was really good. I really liked this movie. Everything about it was good. What was really good about this was it was a true story and that’s what interested me more about the movie. This movie was about a kid Micheal oher didn’t have a home and didn’t know where to go at night. But when a kind women Leigh Anne Tuohy finds out about him so she welcomes him to her home and helps him out with his life. She helps him with his school work and football. After a while many colleges start giving him scholarships. He goes to college and starts to play for the NFL.

I liked mostly everyone in this movie. I liked Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock) character she played her roll very well. The characters cast are well. They all played there parts well and since the movie was based on a true story the movie was pretty good and it made us pay attention more to the movie and the roles of the actors. The actors’ characters’ are developed because they all came out in the movie. They did there best to play this movie well to let everyone know what happened to this boy and about the family that helped him through out his life.

I liked how she raised Michael Oher as her own son. I also liked Micheal Oher (Quinton Aaron) character because how he acted like he didn’t know anything and all he was good at was football. I also like when he needed to get better in school to be able to play football. The conflict is about a homeless boy Michael Oher that doesn’t have home. Leigh welcomes him to her home and helps him with school. In the end he has to choose between to colleges he wants to go to Mississippi or Tennessee. He selects Mississippi but the NCAA suspect that he choose Mississippi because Leigh. He leaves and confronts Leigh and asks her if that was the only reason that she took him in for. So he can play for Mississippi. But she explains everything to him and they solve the problem and he still goes to Mississippi.

I think some piece dialogues are football. When he played football because that’s what he did best and that’s what he got into college for. There is chemistry between the characters for example how Michael started to treat Leigh family just like his own. He starts to watch out for them just as if there his family. The characters do interact well with each other because at the end when Michael and Leigh say good-bye to each other. They both got close to each other and Leigh starts to tear up when she says good-bye to him. So they got really close and interacted well with each other. The setting is Memphis.

The costuming in this movie affective. For example when Michael Oher didn’t have a home he would stay with the same cloths because he didn’t have money to buy new cloths. But until Leigh helps him out. This movie wasn’t all about the music but it had background music. Some props would be all the scholarships Michael Oher got. They used them for when he played football really good and many colleges wanted him to go to there schools. This helped him get better in school so he would be able to join that college. The stages are different and nice. I like how it was all about football and the scenes were actually interesting. I didn’t think I would like this movie because it was about football. But the stages where nice and they kept me interested the whole time while watching the movie. This movie was really good especially because its based on a true story. i think who ever does not know what to watch they should watch the blind side.

Precious

I watched Precious and I really liked it. Precious was about a 16 year old that gets pregnant twice from her father. She is also abused by her mother. The movie was mostly about Precious trying really hard to stay in school and taking care of her kids. The main characters are Precious (Gabourey Sidibe), Mary (mo'Nique), Ms. Rain (Paula Patton). The actors Characters developed in the movie they all played there part well in the movie. I liked Precious when she finally stood up to her mother.

I disliked Precious's mother Mary throughout the whole movie. I dislike how she's always telling Precious what to do and controls her in every way. But a really good part that I liked that Mary had in the movie was when she wanted precious back home and they where at Mrs. Weiss office. Mary had a really good part and it was really said but that wasn't an excuse for what she did to Precious but it was good. The characters cast were well they put all the effort in it and it was good. The conflict was Precious get pregnant twice by her father and her mother abuses her because she "stole her man". Precious tries to get through all that by going to school and taking care of her kids but ends up having HIV and that gets her really mad and she stops writing.

That is solved when Precious stands up to her mother and she stays in school and tries to get and education and take care of her kids. The plot is realistic. This happens to many girls and they should all do what Precious did stand up for yourself. so don't let anything stop you from what you want. I think the characters do interact well with each other because at the end of the movie Precious's mother Mary wants Precious to forgive her for what she did. Also when Precious got both of her kids and is ready to take care of both of them. There is chemistry between the characters between Precious and Ms. Rain. Ms. Rain tries to keep Precious in school so she can get a better education. I think one key piece dialogue was when Precious stood up for herself and continued her new life with her kids and an education. The setting was set in Harlem.

I think the costuming effective because the author was trying to tell us it was a while ago. The movie was set in Harlem in 1987 and I think thats what the costuming told us. The music went with how the mood was in the movie and it also told us the story by the music. Same with the lighting it told us the mood and the time of the movie. There was different stages in the movie. For example at school, at precious home, and when she ran away from home and went to Ms. rain. But there was one place witch was set in Harlem. some props the characters used was the journal that Precious had. She would write in it all about herself and Ms. Rain was the only one that read about it. That Journal was about Precious's life.

Over all this movie was great and it is one of the best movie I watched. who ever didn't watch this movie should it was a really good movie and I think I would watch this movie again on my spare time.
