The only thing the Blindside has going for it, is its a true story, embellished in the movie but true story. Best picture? No, honestly shouldn't even be a nominee, there is nothing that separates it from any other sports driven feel good movie. It belongs on Lifetime channels Sunday night movie

I get that but the Hurt Locker was just another typical war movie, and not even that good of one. Think of the great ones like Platoon, FMJ, Blackhawk Down etc...they all had solid character development where you got to know and feel for these guys. Hurt Locker had none of that. It was just a bunch of soldiers going from mission to mission with no set up as to why they are there and they were all the same, disarm a bomb before it blows. It got old after the second one. I wouldnt even put it in the top 25 war movies of all time.
