Jennifer Lawrence soars really high here.

Rating: 8/10 (12 April 2015)

Silver linings playbook is easily one of the best movies in the year. This is a film that could gone wrong really bad and turned into into a big mess. But inspite of all , this film is hugely entertaining and has got some really solid stuff in it. Jennifer Lawrence is something else in this movie, her silences and condescending looks warn you of some imminent danger and bring subtle change is the movie's direction. Bradley Cooper is really good too and so is Robert De Niro. The reason this movie is able to stride forward without falling apart is because of the performances of the actors, one of the best in the year, and gripping screenplay, and unique visual style. However, my only disappointment is that the movie runs on well trodden story- boys with problems meets a similar girl and they find love. But the only excuse that I have is that there is good family drama too which prevents the movie from dwelling on a cheesy plot. It's a really good movie and if you haven't watched it, give it a try. Not a waste of time, I can guarantee that.
