Bullock's Blind Side Beats New Moon


Sandra Bullock is having the best year in her nearly two decade long career, as she earns her second #1 movie in the past 12 months with The Blind Side.

After scoring a $100 million box office smash with The Proposal, Bullock's most recent flick which stars her as a rich southern wife who eventually adopts a super talented football playing teen from the ghetto, earned another $20.4 million this past weekend, good enough to move ahead of New Moon, which took in around $16 million.

Blind Side has been trailing New Moon for weeks, but has built up enough momentum to snag the top spot this week.

I happened to go see Bullock's new movie; it was two hours full of feel good greatness! Some critics say that this could be the film that earns Miss Congeniality her first Oscar nod, but I beg to differ. Bullock is not really the type of actress to get much critical claim, and this movie does stretch her acting chops a bit, but it's nothing to hoot and holler about.
