    Silver Linings Playbook

    by mulliganJen

    Outstanding heartfelt movie. The story line was consistant. The acting superb. The best movie I have seen this year. You will not regret going. My other 2nd favorite movies are: Argo, Lincoln, and Life of Pi.

    This movie touches your soul

    by c4rankin

    Silver Linings is absolutely amazing! Not only is it the best film of 2012, it's one of the best films I've ever seen. There are no fancy action sequences, no period wardrobes or crazy makeup, but it will grab you unexpectedly and won't let go. It's trans formative, not only for the characters, but for the viewer. You won't be the same when you come out. You'll feel like you can do anything, be anything. I saw the movie months ago and still reflect on it like it was yesterday. Every single character touches you. Bradley Cooper is phenomenal with the performance of a lifetime. The writing and dialog is awesome and the directing is nothing less than stellar. As a viewer, you're guided through subtle and major changes in such a natural way you'll feel like you went through it all yourself. It's real and gritty, heart warming and funny. It's really a terrific movie that will catch you off guard no matter how prepared you are going in. Prepare to be inspired.

    Silver Linings Playbook

    by davmoody

    De Niro's performance is outstanding -- one of the best from a consummate actor. The rest of the ensemble are excellent, overcoming the problem of an ending that's happier than real life.
    An audience of professionals gave his credit line a standing o, well earned..

    Fantastic acting

    by tsgahan

    The more I think about this adult film, the more I enjoyed it!
    There were so many wonderfully acted moments…
    It was so real you have to give the director, the writer and the actors all credit…

    I am going to see this movie again .
    Just when I was ready to give up on a lot of American actors, along comes these brilliantly, talented, real people.

    Job well done!

    Silver Lining Playbook

    by wweber332

    "Silver Linings Playbook" is one of the best films I've seen in the last couple of years. Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence did phenomenal jobs.
    There was so much going on, almost to the point of disjointed. But, everything worked well. It was very much like life actually is.

    Sure to Make you Smile

    by Facets1

    Jennifer Lawrence was wonderful in her role in this movie. It's no a "chick flick, nor is it an action movie... it's a movie that will make you feel good.

    not what I expected...

    by twentyseventulips

    This is the best I have seen Cooper and Lawrence. It was absolutely better than I ever expected. It was uncomfortable, honest, heartbreaking, and tragically funny. I seriously almost peed my pants during the dance competition toward the end; I was laughing so hard I was crying. This was really really well done, and it makes other movies pale in comparison.

    MUST SEE!

    by

    Great feel good movie with laughs, charm and plenty of emotion - let yourself dip into the lives of an American family as they struggle with some of life's challenges....acting is phenomenal-the story line is strong and the combination provides for a great movie you will love, laugh and cry with.

    MUST See Movie !

    by redrdr26

    I went into this movie with no expectations but was very pleased with it. This movie was very well done and relatable. I found the true nature of mental health concerns accurate & informative. A more serious role for Bradley Cooper & Jennifer Lawrence alike. Well done ! I would see it again ! Go see this movie as it has been nominated for a few awards !

    I Will Own This Movie

    by yrmomsthebest

    I loved this movie so much, that I saw it twice in 12 hours. I will buy this the moment it comes out on dvd. I have bipolar disorder. When we are in our own skin having a mania or low, it's hard to see what we are doing looks like. I felt understood, hopeful, and I learned things from this movie. My friend and I saw it together, and she learned as well. I took my family the next day, and they learned from it. I love every cast member for doing this movie. I laughed my butt off, cried, and loved the characters. Go see this, it's sooo worth it.

    Silver Linings Playbook

    by ssilvermike42

    My wife and I really enjoyed this movie. The acting was first rate and the interaction between the parents and their bi polar son was so authentic. Hope it receives many Oscars.

    Silver Linings Playbook

    by llrshopping

    Saw this yesterday & had a hard time staying until the end. I see absolutely no redeeming quality in this film. I expected a light, romantic comedy. What I saw was a bunch of crazy people fighting, screaming, hitting, cursing (why the f word a hundred billion times?). I've seen Life of Pi, Lincoln & Argo - all very different films & all very entertaining. I rate Silver Linings Playbook as a piece of crap!
