    Ted's review

    by Teddg3

    Very good movie. Bradley Cooper was excellent. Laughed a lot and thought Deniro was excellent also. Liked the story lineand the twists. Would recommend going to see.

    Silver Linings Playbook

    Excellent movie. Well acted and wonderful story line. Makes you thing about life and how being perfect is not reality and that sometimes you need to find your own happiness even if its not what you originally planned.

    Outstanding from start to finish

    by selli44

    This was a thoroughly entertaing movie. Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, and Robert DeNiro were terrific--academy award worthy. Great story that was painful to watch at times, funny, and inspiring. Movie of the year as far as I am concerned.

    The last 20-30 minutes of this movie were good... But not good enough to warrant sitting through what it took to get there. Do yourself a favor and skip this one.

    Silver Lining Playbook Rocks!

    I was really delighted with the acting and plot in this movie. It was so well-put together and so well directed. This was the best movie that I have seen in several years. It is definitely a must-see!

    A Romantic Comedy for our times

    A romantic comedy that addresses the quirkiness and reality of a real family in Philadelphia.
    Cooper, Lawrence, DeNiro and the entire cast were near perfection as they deal with the sensitive issues surrounding a family grappling with mental health issues. GO SEE IT!

    Silver Linings gets Gold

    Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence were fantastic. Without an excellent cast this show would have been a disaster. It was a tad dark yet amazingly funny.

    Very Good

    I went to see it cause I thought it was one of those corny romantic movies which goes well with the wife on V-day, but it actually turned out to be well balanced. It wasn't too cheesy or corny...it felt just right. Both Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence we're very good in it as well as the rest of the cast.

    Clever and Long

    This is a clever movie with a great cast. There are some great laugh lines, and if you have seen the trailer, no doubt you have already seen some of the best.

    My problem with this movie was its length and pacing. It was too long and seemed drag, drag, drag. Most of the men I overhead leaving the theater -- most with their wives or girlfriends and had no desire to complain about the story or content (this is really a chic flick), -- would only say, when pressed by their companion -- that it was too long because they knew that was a safe thing to say.

    If you have a lot of time to kill. This is the place.

    Excellent

    This movie hit home. Too close to home. All acting was infectious. The story evolved in an ever exciting, suspensefully woven way. Bring the Kleenex if you love a true love romance.

    Much better than expected

    by dayoan

    Bradley Cooper's performance was really fantastic, had it not been for the "Lincoln" juggernaut he would have been the clear Oscar winner this year.

    I went in thinking chick flick but left really impressed by such a well made movie about mental health and the struggles it entails. A must see.

    A solid flick

    At first glace this movie almost had the right elements to be considered to be a "romantic comedy." Turns out, if you thought this, you would be mostly wrong. This movie is more along the lines of a Dark Comedy with a twist of romance, drama and constant character development throughout. Dry humor mixed with various social disorders gives depth to the film at hand. If you are looking for a movie that is going to make you think and laugh, almost always at the same time. I will say that if you are expecting a laugh out loud comedy/laugh all the time, you won't find it. This is more of, what I would like to call, an "intellectual comedy" where once the line is said, you have that brief moment to think about it, and it finally hits you with the "Oh my god that was funny." A must see sleeper hit that would be enjoyed by any couple or some just looking for an all around good movie.

    Didn't live up to the hype.

    by

    A very good movie with some very good moments. Nothing you haven't already seen a million times. Some scenes felt forced and repetitive. Still not sure why everyone is so in love with Lawrence. She is very good but Oscar worthy? Meh. Cooper deserved more credit in my opinion. My advice, rent it.

    Excelsior!

    by

    Too many Hollywood Rom-coms are unrealistic, cheesy, and just unfunny. This movie was funny and it didn't sugar coat it's characters flaws and problems. Acting was so incredible I was invested in them and wanted to see them succeed. DeNiro and Chris Tucker gave memorable performances. Can't say enough about J-Law lol the woman is on fire! I recommend this movie to guys that are tired of paying for date night movies that completely suck. Take your girl out to this and you won't want a refund.
