Silver Linings Playbook - A Review

1.5 Stars - Bad

Silver Linings Playbook is a film that tries to talk about serious mental illness and attempts at dealing with it. It isn't very good at it. I sensed that the writer had very little understanding of it's subject matter, and didn't get across anything of what was going on in the main characters' heads. Instead it seems to many times treat it as a joke, and this ruins any sympathy you might try and have for them.

The acting is okay, nothing really special, certainly not worth all the oscar buzz it's been getting.

To Think, I Could Be Watching The Hunger Games Right Now...

In short, not a very good film, I really didn't like it.
