Review by GEORGE R WARBURTON
Saw it in 2018. Just saw it again (2021). It's still a beautiful and highly recommended movie romance.

Tell us what you thought about Silver linings playbook
Saw it in 2018. Just saw it again (2021). It's still a beautiful and highly recommended movie romance.
A film with the likes of Robert De Niro, Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence is guaranteed to have great acting. This is most definitely the case here. Cooper delivers a great performance as the main character, a broken ex mental patient with dreams of getting back together with his wife. Lawrence is also a broken character and the both of them become friends. The scenes with both of them are simply spectacular to watch.
The story is very well done and keeps us captivated throughout.
A wonderful film.
