Disappointed
1 of 7 people found this review helpful.
I'd read the write-ups and was expecting a funny, kind-of inspirational, wholesome movie. Not. PG rating? Language and sexual inuendos (for example, Tom comments on a girlfriend's soft nipples, judging her to be about a B-cup) would make this a minimum of a PG-13, if not a soft R movie. I certainly wouldn't let any kid of mine sit and watch this. Tom Sullivan was a handsome but otherwise unremarkable 20-something, preoccupied with partying, girls and sex--the stereotypical college kid, bedding first one chick and then another. At one point, he almost lost the girl he ended up marrying because she called him when he was in bed with another girl! Yes, he was blind and didn't let that stop him and went on to become an accomplished musician, but is that so remarkable in and of itself? (I worked for a blind professor who was far more inspirational--and funny!) I found the whole premise a bit insulting to the visually impaired; it gave the impression that being blind and a normal person was somehow a phenominal accomplishment worthy of note, when there are many blind professionals who view their handicap as a detour, not a road block, and leave a monumental mark on society--and a legacy of virtue.
